art-generate

art-generate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from striderZA/OpenCodeGameStudios. It costs 57 tokens per session (2,645 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A game-art tool that creates placeholder Aseprite sprite files from written asset specifications and an art bible. It also exports PNG previews.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps prepare placeholder art for game systems, levels, and characters after their assets have been specified.
Why use it?
It removes the need to create each placeholder sprite by hand and keeps dimensions, colors, and layers aligned with the documented asset requirements.

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

art-generate 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 yesterday.

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 — 322 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

If no argument is provided, read design/assets/asset-manifest.md:

  • If it exists: find the first target with any asset at Status: Needed and use question:
    • Prompt: "The next unspecced target is [target]. Generate placeholder art for it?"
    • Options: [A] Yes — generate for [target] / [B] Pick a different target / [C] Stop here
  • If no manifest: fail with:

    "No asset manifest found. Run /asset-spec [target] first — I need asset specs to generate art from."


Phase 0: Parse Target

Resolve the target:

  1. If argument matches system:<name> → spec at design/assets/specs/[name]-assets.md
  2. If argument matches level:<name> → spec at design/assets/specs/[name]-assets.md
  3. If argument matches character:<name> → spec at design/assets/specs/[name]-assets.md
  4. If argument is a path → read that file directly
  5. If argument is a path to a .md file → treat as spec file

Fail if the spec file does not exist:

"No asset spec found at [path]. Run /asset-spec [target] first."


Phase 1: Gather Context

Read all source material before generating anything.

Required reads:

  • Asset spec: Read the resolved spec file. Extract all ASSET-NNN entries. For each, extract: Category, Dimensions, Format, Naming, Visual Description.
  • Art bible: Read design/art/art-bible.md — fail if missing:

    "No art bible found. Run /art-bible first — I need the palette and shape language to generate art." Extract: Color System (Section 2), Shape Language (Section 3), Asset Standards (Section 8 — dimension tiers).

  • Asset manifest: Read design/assets/asset-manifest.md — note which assets already have placeholders. Filter to assets with Status: Needed.

Present context summary:

art-generate: [Target Type] — [Target Name]

  • Spec: [path] — [N] assets identified
  • Art bible: found — [N] palette colors, shape language: [style]
  • Assets to generate: [N] (filtered from [N] total — [N] already have placeholders)
  • Output: assets/source/[target]/ and assets/sprites/[target]/

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.
