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

banana 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 2d 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.

Nano Banana Ultimate — Image Generation

Input: $ARGUMENTS (optional plain-language description of what to generate)

If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the user's intent and skip to prompt building. If empty, ask a clarifying question.

Requirements

Workflow

  1. Understand — Parse the user's request. If the subject or intent is unclear, ask ONE clarifying question.
  2. Build prompt — Construct a detailed Gemini prompt using the formula below.
  3. Configure — Choose aspect ratio, resolution, and model. Use defaults unless the user specifies otherwise.
  4. Generate — Run the script.
  5. Deliver — Report the saved file path. Do NOT read the image file back. Offer to iterate: adjust style, composition, or prompt.

Prompt Formula

Build every prompt using this structure:

[Subject] + [Action/Pose] + [Environment/Location] + [Composition/Framing] + [Style/Medium]

Rules

  • Positive framing: Describe what IS in the image, never what is absent. Say "empty street" not "no cars".
  • Strong verb opener: Start with Generate, Create, Capture, Render, Design, Compose.
  • Be specific: Include concrete details — materials, lighting direction, time of day, textures.
  • Camera/lens (photorealistic): "shot on 85mm f/1.4 lens", "low angle", "aerial view".
  • Lighting: "golden hour side light", "studio softbox", "dramatic chiaroscuro", "overcast diffused".
  • Materiality: "brushed aluminum", "matte ceramic", "glossy lacquer", "translucent glass".
  • Text in images: Enclose any text to render in quotes. Specify font style. Note: text rendering may be imperfect.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
