🛑 THE 3 GOLDEN RULES (READ FIRST)
- RULE 1: Never touch or unhide the "Header hidden" box in Shopify Email. It stays hidden at the top so inbox settings render correctly.
- RULE 2: Never delete the outer box boundaries when pasting code. Always replace existing code completely inside Box 1.
- RULE 3: Every email broadcast MUST be reviewed and approved by Dana or a second manager before clicking Send.
PHASE 1: PRE-FLIGHT CAMPAIGN ASSET MAP

PHASE 2: AI CODE GENERATION (GEMINI AI)
Click to copy the prompt, open Gemini, paste it in, and speak or type your 4 variables when Gemini asks:
Act as an expert Shopify Email developer. I need you to build custom Liquid code for Block 1 of my email campaign.
DO NOT generate code yet. First, ask me to provide these 4 campaign variables:
1. Surge Bar Text (Top urgency bar)
2. Banner Image CDN Link
3. Button Destination URL
4. Button Text & Subtext
Once I give you those answers, wrap them inside this Base Liquid Shell and return ONLY the raw HTML code block:
<table role="presentation" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background-color:#FFFFFF; width:100%; max-width:600px; margin:0 auto;">
<tr><td align="center" style="padding:10px; background-color:#111111; color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:900; font-size:11px; text-transform:uppercase;">[SURGE_BAR_TEXT]</td></tr>
<tr><td align="center"><a href="[TARGET_URL]" target="_blank"><img src="[IMAGE_URL]" width="100%" style="display:block; border:none;" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td align="center" style="padding:15px;"><a href="[TARGET_URL]" target="_blank" style="background-color:#2563EB; color:#FFFFFF; padding:12px 24px; font-weight:900; font-size:13px; text-decoration:none; display:inline-block; border-radius:4px;">[BUTTON_TEXT]</a></td></tr>
</table>
Ask me for the 4 variables now.
