visualgen is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 1RaghavM/visualgen-mcp. It costs 79 tokens per session (1,730 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for generating or changing images and videos with the visualgen service, including choosing a model and image shape.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or iterating on website heroes, banners, backgrounds, product images, illustrations, or video.
Why use it?
It helps agents choose an appropriate visual format, quality level, and prompt structure for a web-design task.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

visualgen scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

When to use this skill

You are about to call any of the visualgen-mcp tools (submit_video, check_video, list_videos, generate_image, list_images, get_pricing), or the user asked you to add / generate / iterate on visuals (images or video) in a web-design context. Load this skill once, apply its rules for the rest of the session.

Decision tree

  • Image or video? If the user wants motion — a loop, a demo, a cinematic moment — use submit_video. Otherwise use generate_image. Still images are ~100× cheaper and ~10× faster; default to image unless motion is the point.
  • Aspect ratio. Match the target surface:
    • Hero, banner, desktop landing → 16:9
    • Mobile hero, story, reel → 9:16
    • Avatar, icon, square card → 1:1
    • Inline content illustration → 4:3 or 3:4
    • OG / Twitter card → closest to 16:9 (native is 1200×630; the server doesn't support 1.91:1 so use 16:9 and crop in CSS)
  • Model tier — image. Draft with nano-banana ($0.039/image). Upgrade to imagen when you need a negative_prompt or higher fidelity.
  • Model tier — video. Draft with lite ($0.05–$0.08/sec, 720p/1080p only — 4k is unsupported on this tier). Ship with fast ($0.10–$0.12/sec at 720p/1080p, $0.30/sec at 4k). Only use standard ($0.40/sec at 720p/1080p, $0.60/sec at 4k) when the draft has proved the concept and the user has approved the higher cost.
  • negative_prompt. Nano Banana ignores it. Imagen and Veo honor it. Use it when drafts keep including a specific unwanted element (text overlays, watermarks, specific colors, extra limbs, motion blur).
  • Image-to-video. Pass image_path to submit_video when you want motion that matches an existing still — typically after generating a hero image and wanting a matching loop variant.

Workflow rules

  1. Price once per session. Call get_pricing on the first gated call, cache the numbers in your context, don't call it again in the same session unless the user asks.
  2. Gate expensive calls. For Veo standard or any image-to-video call, state the estimated cost and ask the user to confirm before submitting. Use this exact format:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
