sg-validate-graphics is a skill for Claude Code from davistroy/claude-marketplace. It costs 44 tokens per session (570 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checker for descriptions of images that will be created by an AI image generator. It identifies vague descriptions and rewrites them with more concrete detail.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review the graphics descriptions in a presentation file and see which ones passed, failed, or were rewritten.
Why use it?
It helps catch unclear image instructions before sending them for generation, reducing avoidable failed or poor results.

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

sg-validate-graphics 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 1mo 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.

Slide Generator: Validate Graphics Step

Validate that image descriptions in the presentation are concrete and specific enough for AI image generation. Identifies vague descriptions and rewrites them to be generation-ready.

Pre-loaded Context

Working directory: !pwd

Available presentation files: !ls -la *.md 2>/dev/null | grep -i pres || echo "No presentation files found"

Prerequisites

  • Preflight: sg --version must succeed before proceeding — if sg is missing, stop and tell the user this requires the private davistroy/slide-generator engine (owner-only; see ADR-0008)
  • slide-generator package installed
  • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set in environment
  • A presentation.md file with graphics description fields

Input Validation

Required:

  • <presentation.md> - Path to presentation markdown file

Instructions

  1. Verify input: Confirm the presentation markdown exists and has graphics description fields
  2. Run validation:
    sg validate-graphics presentation.md
    
  3. Review results: Check which descriptions passed/failed validation
  4. Report: Show pass/fail count and any descriptions that were rewritten

How It Works

The validator checks each graphics description for:

  • Specificity: Does it describe a concrete visual (not just "a diagram")?
  • Actionability: Can an image generator produce this without guessing?
  • Completeness: Does it specify composition, style, colors, and subject matter?
  • Chunk-scoped replacement: Fixes are scoped per-slide to prevent cross-contamination

Descriptions that fail are automatically rewritten to be more concrete while preserving intent.

Error Handling

Error Cause Fix
No graphics descriptions found Presentation lacks image fields Re-run draft step
All descriptions failed Content too abstract Consider manual description writing

Output

The validation step updates presentation.md in-place with:

  • Validated (or rewritten) graphics descriptions
  • A .graphics_validated marker file indicating completion

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.
