image-ad-clone

image-ad-clone is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from krusemediallc/arcads-claude-code. It costs 124 tokens per session (2,408 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow that examines an existing image advertisement and turns its design into a reusable prompt template. The template can contain replaceable details such as the product, text, or imagery.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to reverse-engineer an ad, create a reusable image prompt, and test the template with ChatGPT Image 2 or Nano Banana.
Why use it?
It avoids starting from scratch when you want to reuse the structure of an ad for different campaigns or products.

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

image-ad-clone 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 133 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

image-ad-clone (Arcads)

Take an existing image ad and turn it into a reusable, parameterizable prompt template that gets appended to the shared 37-template image-ad library. The template is validated by round-tripping through one of the Arcads image-ad generators — ChatGPT Image 2 (typography / UI-mimicry templates) or Nano Banana (photoreal / lifestyle / multi-reference templates).

This skill replaces the older Uni1-locked image-ad-clone (which only worked with Luma uni-1). It's backend-agnostic: at Phase 1 the agent asks you (or auto-detects from the reference) whether to validate against gpt-image-2 or Nano Banana, then routes through the matching generator script in this repo.

Read order

  1. This file — Arcads-specific generator paths, model-choice decision, what's locked at the per-repo layer.
  2. shared/skills/image-ad-clone/prompting/guide.md — the full model-agnostic 10-phase workflow (visual analysis → draft prompt → generate-with-reference → iterate → generalize → test → cross-model validate → document → save).
  3. shared/skills/image-ad-prompting/prompting/template-format.md — entry skeleton.
  4. shared/skills/image-ad-prompting/prompting/prompt-library.md — destination for the new entry. 37 validated templates already there; new entries go at T40+.

Hard rules

Inherits all 6 hard rules from the shared guide (strip platform chrome, validate by generating, test the generalized version, no brand-specific text in the final template, never silently overwrite, document model notes for both backends). Plus per-repo:

  1. Backend is one of: ChatGPT Image 2 OR Nano Banana on Arcads. Never uni-1. The script choice happens in Phase 1 once the user picks (or the agent auto-detects).

Picking the right backend in Phase 1

Pick by what the reference ad is showing — most templates fall into one clear bucket.

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.
