Critical Rules

1. NEVER generate paint names from memory — always read from JSON files
2. The current Army Painter range is Warpaints Fanatic (2024+) — our JSON files contain verified current names
3. If a paint name is not in our inventory, say so — "This paint is not in our tracked inventory"
4. Always include hex codes when recommending paints — enables visual verification
5. Show your source — cite which file: [Source: army-painter-warpaints.json]
6. Check hallucination registry — paint name hallucination is a documented pattern
