What this skill does


# imgix

## Overview

imgix is a real-time image processing CDN. Point it at your image storage (S3, GCS, web folder), and it serves optimized, transformed images via URL parameters. No pre-processing needed — transformations happen on request and are cached globally.

## Instructions

### Step 1: URL API

```typescript
// lib/imgix.ts — Image URL builder
import ImgixClient from '@imgix/js-core'

const client = new ImgixClient({
  domain: 'myapp.imgix.net',
  secureURLToken: process.env.IMGIX_TOKEN,    // sign URLs to prevent abuse
})

// Responsive image with auto format/quality
const url = client.buildURL('photos/hero.jpg', {
  w: 1200,
  h: 630,
  fit: 'crop',
  auto: 'format,compress',    // WebP/AVIF + quality optimization
  crop: 'faces',               // crop around detected faces
})

// Generate srcset for responsive images
const srcset = client.buildSrcSet('photos/hero.jpg', {
  auto: 'format,compress',
  fit: 'crop',
  ar: '16:9',
})
```

### Step 2: React Component

```tsx
import Imgix from 'react-imgix'

function ProductImage({ path, alt }: { path: string; alt: string }) {
  return (
    <Imgix
      src={`https://myapp.imgix.net/${path}`}
      sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 50vw"
      imgixParams={{
        auto: 'format,compress',
        fit: 'crop',
        ar: '1:1',
      }}
      htmlAttributes={{ alt, loading: 'lazy' }}
    />
  )
}
```

### Step 3: Video Thumbnails

```typescript
// Extract video thumbnails via URL
const thumbnail = client.buildURL('videos/demo.mp4', {
  fm: 'jpg',
  frame: 1,          // extract frame at 1 second
  w: 640,
  h: 360,
  fit: 'crop',
})
```

## Guidelines

- `auto=format,compress` delivers WebP/AVIF with optimal quality — always include it.
- Sign URLs with secureURLToken in production — prevents parameter tampering.
- imgix doesn't store images — it proxies from your origin (S3, GCS, HTTP).
- Use `buildSrcSet()` for responsive images — generates proper `srcset` with widths.
- Pricing: based on origin images accessed per month, not transformations.

watch

Included

Watch a video (URL or local path). Downloads with yt-dlp, extracts auto-scaled frames with ffmpeg, pulls the transcript from captions (or Whisper API fallback), and hands the result to Claude so it can answer questions about what's in the video.

physical-ai-defect-image-generation

Included

Use when the user wants to orchestrate defect image generation, run associated setup, or handle outputs on OSMO. The Day 0 path handles cold-start with USD-to-ROI, image-edit augmentation, and AnomalyGen to create initial PCBA datasets. The Day 1 path performs inference and labeling on real images. This skill helps with first-time asset setup, creation of finetuning checkpoints, and configuring deployment.

accelint-react-best-practices

Included

React performance optimization and best practices. ALWAYS use this skill when working with any React code - writing components, hooks, JSX; refactoring; optimizing re-renders, memoization, state management; reviewing for performance; fixing hydration mismatches; debugging infinite re-renders, stale closures, input focus loss, animations restarting; preventing remounting; implementing transitions, lazy initialization, effect dependencies. Even simple React tasks benefit from these patterns. Covers React 19+ (useEffectEvent, Activity, ref props). Triggers - useEffect, useState, useMemo, useCallback, memo, inline components, nested components, components inside components, re-render, performance, hydration, SSR, Next.js, useDeferredValue, combined hooks.

humanizer

Included

Humanize AI-generated text by detecting and removing patterns typical of LLM output. Rewrites text to sound natural, specific, and human. Uses 28 pattern detectors, 560+ AI vocabulary terms across 3 tiers, and statistical analysis (burstiness, type-token ratio, readability) for comprehensive detection. Use when asked to humanize text, de-AI writing, make content sound more natural/human, review writing for AI patterns, score text for AI detection, or improve AI-generated drafts. Covers content, language, style, communication, and filler categories.

generating-mermaid-diagrams

Included

Salesforce architecture diagrams using Mermaid with ASCII fallback. Use this skill when generating text-based diagrams for Salesforce architecture, OAuth flows, ERDs, integration sequences, or Agentforce structure. TRIGGER when: user says "diagram", "visualize", "ERD", or asks for sequence diagrams, flowcharts, class diagrams, or architecture visualizations in Mermaid. DO NOT TRIGGER when: user wants PNG/SVG image output (use generating-visual-diagrams), or asks about non-Salesforce systems.
