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

openrouter-text2image 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate_image.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

openrouter-text2image

Text → image via OpenRouter. Default model: openai/gpt-5.4-image-2.

Other supported models (override with --model):

  • google/gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview (Nano Banana 2)
  • any other OpenRouter image-modality model

Usage

Resolve TOOL_DIR = the directory containing this SKILL.md. Commands below use TOOL_DIR as a symbolic placeholder; replace it with the resolved, quoted path before running Bash.

export OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-or-v1-...

python3 TOOL_DIR/scripts/generate_image.py \
  --prompt "Editorial illustration: a neon-lit skateboard at dusk, dramatic shadows" \
  --download PROJECT_DIR/assets/teaser.png

Flags

Flag Default Description
--prompt required Text prompt
--download required Output file path (PNG)
--model openai/gpt-5.4-image-2 Override with any OpenRouter image-modality model

Notes

  • Request uses POST /api/v1/chat/completions with modalities: ["image","text"].
  • Images are returned as base64 data URLs in the assistant message; the script decodes and writes to disk.
  • For edits/inpainting, include messages with both text and image-URL content parts — the script currently supports text-only prompts.
Files

What ships with it

2 files 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.
