Style dual-skill Create a horizontal WeChat public-account article cover, 2.35:1 aspect ratio, for an article titled "What Exactly Is a Software Factory?". Central concept: visualize abstract tool capabilities as interface windows, code snippets, node networks, control consoles, AI workflows, or a glowing system core. Style: preserve the reference cover's visual direction: black-and-white or low-saturation editorial illustration/photo. Use a palette inspired by #121212 (black), #3e3e3e (charcoal), #5c5c5c (brown), #8b8b8b (gray). Keep the image editorial, conceptual, and readable as a small WeChat thumbnail. Composition: the image is information-dense, suitable for a central subject plus supporting information on the left and right, keeping the thumbnail readable. Keep the main subject and any essential title text inside the safe square crop, while using the full wide frame for atmosphere, secondary symbols, or directional motion. Text strategy: use either no text or a very short headline fragment from the title. If text is used, make it large, clean, and integrated into the layout rather than pasted on top.

Avoid: photorealistic clutter unless the source cover is photo-led, fake logos, unreadable tiny text, generic gradient blobs, stock-office imagery, watermark-like marks, and literal screenshots unless the article is explicitly about software interfaces.
