generate-image
Generate images using AI (OpenAI GPT Image or Stability AI). Use when the user asks to generate an image, create an AI image, make an illustration, or produce artwork from a text prompt.
What this skill does
# AI Image Generation Generate images from text prompts using OpenAI GPT Image (gpt-image-2 / gpt-image-1 / variants) or Stability AI (SD 3.5 Large). ## Tool Location - Script: `~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py` - Env file: `~/.agents/tools/.env` (contains `OPENAI_API_KEY` and `STABILITY_API_KEY`) ## Available OpenAI image models (verified live via `/v1/models` 2026-05-15) | Model ID | Notes | |---|---| | `gpt-image-2` | **Flagship.** Released 2026-04-21. Best prompt adherence, best photorealism. Default when image quality matters. | | `gpt-image-2-2026-04-21` | Pinned dated variant of gpt-image-2 | | `gpt-image-1.5` | Intermediate release between 1 and 2 | | `gpt-image-1-mini` | Smaller/cheaper gpt-image-1 variant — use for batch/draft generation where cost matters | | `gpt-image-1` | Original gpt-image. Still works; superseded by gpt-image-2. | | `chatgpt-image-latest` | Always-current alias of the model ChatGPT.com uses (currently gpt-image-2-class). Use when you want "whatever ChatGPT uses today" | | `dall-e-3` | Legacy fallback. Different quality semantics (standard/hd, not low/medium/high). | Pass any of these to `--model`. The script branches on `gpt-image*` for the quality/format handling, so all gpt-image-* variants work out of the box. **Default in the script is still `gpt-image-1`** — pass `--model gpt-image-2` (or set up an alias) when you want the flagship. ## Quick Usage ### Generate with OpenAI gpt-image-2 (flagship) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "a sunset over mountains, oil painting style" \ --output ./sunset.png \ --model gpt-image-2 \ --quality high ``` ### Generate with default (gpt-image-1) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "a sunset over mountains, oil painting style" \ --output ./sunset.png ``` ### High quality ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "modern logo design for a tech company" \ --output ./logo.png \ --size 1024x1024 \ --quality high ``` ### Wide format (good for blog covers, banners) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "abstract digital art with blue tones" \ --output ./banner.png \ --size 1536x1024 ``` ### Tall format (good for mobile, stories) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "portrait of a futuristic city" \ --output ./city.png \ --size 1024x1536 ``` ### Transparent background (icons, logos) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "a minimalist cat icon, flat design" \ --output ./icon.png \ --background transparent ``` ### Generate with Stability AI (SD 3.5 Large) ```bash python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \ --prompt "watercolor painting of a garden" \ --output ./garden.png \ --provider stability ``` ## CLI Options | Option | Description | |--------|-------------| | `--prompt, -p` | **(Required)** Text prompt describing the desired image | | `--output, -o` | **(Required)** Output file path | | `--provider` | `openai` (default) or `stability` | | `--size` | Image size for OpenAI: `1024x1024` (default), `1536x1024` (wide), `1024x1536` (tall) | | `--quality` | OpenAI quality: `low`, `medium` (default), or `high` | | `--background` | OpenAI background: `auto` (default), `transparent`, or `opaque` | | `--model` | Override model (default: `gpt-image-1` for OpenAI, `sd3.5-large` for Stability) | ## Provider Comparison | Feature | OpenAI gpt-image-2 | OpenAI gpt-image-1 | Stability AI SD 3.5 | |---------|--------------------|--------------------|---------------------| | Released | 2026-04-21 | 2025 | — | | Prompt adherence | Best | Excellent | Good | | Size options | 1024x1024, 1536x1024, 1024x1536 | 1024x1024, 1536x1024, 1024x1536 | 1024x1024 | | Quality options | low, medium, high | low, medium, high | N/A | | Transparent bg | Yes | Yes | No | | Style | Photorealistic + artistic | Photorealistic + artistic | Artistic + photorealistic | | Cost per image (high) | Higher than 1 | Baseline | N/A | ## Dependencies - `requests` (for API calls) Install if needed: ```bash pip install requests ``` ## Output The script prints: - The provider and model used - The prompt (and revised prompt if applicable) - The saved file path

contribute
IncludedLocal-only OSS contribution command center. Auto-refreshes the user's in-flight PR and issue state on invoke so conversations start with full context — no need to brief Claude on what's in flight. Helps the user find issues to contribute to on GitHub, builds per-repo dossiers of what each upstream expects (CLA, DCO, branch convention, AI policy, draft-first, review bots, issue templates), runs deterministic gates before any external action so AI-assisted contributions don't reach maintainers as slop. State is markdown-only: candidate files at ~/.contribute-system/candidates/, repo dossiers at ~/.contribute-system/research/, append-only event log at ~/.contribute-system/log.jsonl. No database, no cloud calls. Use when the user asks about their PRs / issues / contributions, wants to find new work to take on, claim an issue, build/refresh a repo's dossier, or draft a Design Issue or PR. Trigger with "/contribute", "what's my PR status", "find a contribution", "claim issue X", "draft a Design Issue for Y", "refresh dossier for Z".
architectural-analysis
IncludedUser-triggered deep architectural analysis of a codebase or scoped subtree across eight modes — information architecture, data flow, integration points, UI surfaces, interaction patterns, data model, control flow, and failure modes. This skill should be used when the user asks to "diagram this codebase," "map the architecture," "show the data flow," "give me an ERD," "trace control flow," "find the integration points," "verify the layout pattern," "audit the UX architecture," or any similar request whose primary deliverable is mermaid diagrams plus cited reports under docs/architecture/. Dispatches haiku/sonnet sub-agents in parallel for per-mode exploration, then verifies every citation mechanically before any node lands in a diagram. Not for one-off prose explanations of code (use code-explanation) or for high-level system design from scratch (use system-design).
mcp
IncludedModel Context Protocol (MCP) server development and tool management. Languages: Python, TypeScript. Capabilities: build MCP servers, integrate external APIs, discover/execute MCP tools, manage multi-server configs, design agent-centric tools. Actions: create, build, integrate, discover, execute, configure MCP servers/tools. Keywords: MCP, Model Context Protocol, MCP server, MCP tool, stdio transport, SSE transport, tool discovery, resource provider, prompt template, external API integration, Gemini CLI MCP, Claude MCP, agent tools, tool execution, server config. Use when: building MCP servers, integrating external APIs as MCP tools, discovering available MCP tools, executing MCP capabilities, configuring multi-server setups, designing tools for AI agents.
react-native-skia
IncludedDesign, build, debug, and optimise high-polish animated graphics in React Native or Expo using @shopify/react-native-skia, Reanimated, and Gesture Handler. Use when the user wants canvas-driven UI, shaders, paths, rich text, image filters, sprite fields, Skottie, video frames, snapshots, web CanvasKit setup, or performance tuning for custom motion-heavy elements such as loaders, hero art, cards, charts, progress indicators, particle systems, or gesture-driven surfaces. Also use when the user asks for fluid, glow, glass, blob, parallax, 60fps/120fps, or GPU-friendly animated effects in React Native, even if they do not explicitly say "Skia". Do not use for ordinary form/layout work with standard views.
plaid
IncludedProduct Led AI Development — guides founders from idea to launched product. Six capabilities: Idea (discover a product idea), Validate (pressure-test the idea against fatal flaws, problem reality, competition, and 2-week MVP feasibility), Plan (vision intake + document generation), Design (translate image references into a design.md spec), Launch (go-to-market strategy), and Build (roadmap execution). Use when someone says "PLAID", "plaid idea", "help me find an idea", "product idea", "idea from my business", "idea from my expertise", "plaid validate", "validate my idea", "pressure-test", "is this idea good", "find fatal flaws", "validate the problem", "plan a product", "define my vision", "generate a PRD", "product strategy", "plaid design", "design from image", "translate image to design", "create design.md", "extract design tokens", "plaid launch", "go-to-market", "launch plan", "GTM strategy", "launch playbook", "plaid build", "build the app", "start building", or "execute the roadmap".
nextjs-framer-motion-animations
IncludedAdds production-safe Motion for React or Framer Motion animations to Next.js apps, including reveal, hover and tap micro-interactions, whileInView, stagger, AnimatePresence, layout and layoutId transitions, reorder, scroll-linked UI, and lightweight route-content transitions. Use when the user asks to add, refactor, or debug Motion or Framer Motion in App Router or Pages Router codebases, especially around server/client boundaries, reduced motion, LazyMotion, bundle size, hydration, or route transitions. Avoid for GSAP-style timelines, WebGL or 3D scenes, heavy scroll storytelling, or CSS-only effects unless Motion is explicitly requested.
