gimp

gimp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from EldanRing/qubicl. It costs 24 tokens per session (244 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workstation skill for editing layered raster images in GIMP and exporting them to common image formats. Raster images are made from pixels, and an XCF file preserves GIMP's editable layers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for pixel-based image edits, compositing, layer work, and PNG or JPEG exports.
Why use it?
It helps keep the original layered project separate from delivery files and encourages checking that the export has the expected dimensions, transparency, and appearance.

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

gimp 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 8d 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.

What it actually says

GIMP on Qubicl

GIMP is bundled on workstation computers. Launch gimp with open_desktop_application; file arguments must already exist inside /home/qubicl.

Use list_desktop_windows and desktop_snapshot to locate menus, layers and dialogs. GTK controls generally expose accessibility; canvas painting and selections often need take_screenshot and control_computer. Use the observed window ID and geometry token with screen coordinates. Request an observation after an action when the next step depends on its effect.

Save the editable project as .xcf; export PNG, JPEG or another requested delivery format separately. Preserve layers and transparency when the task needs them. Check the exported dimensions and a representative view; a successful save alone does not verify the image.

GIMP batch APIs differ between major versions. Inspect gimp --version and gimp --help before choosing a script interface. Do not assume a Python console/plugin is installed. A normal close request may open a save dialog; handle it through observed controls.

Files

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.
