image-generation

image-generation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yideng966/LightAgent. It costs 41 tokens per session (1,441 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An image-generation skill that creates or edits images from written instructions, such as illustrations, photos, icons, posters, and other visual assets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating new images, editing existing images, and requesting visual variations from text prompts.
Why use it?
It provides a defined workflow for sending an image request and selecting an available generation service without manually choosing the backend.

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-generation 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Image Generation

Generate and edit images using AI models. The script automatically picks a backend based on which API keys are configured — you don't need to specify a model unless the user explicitly names one.

Supported models (passed via model only when the user asks for a specific one):

  • OpenAIgpt-image-2, gpt-image-1
  • Gemini Nano Banananano-banana-2, nano-banana-pro, nano-banana
  • Seedream (Volcengine Ark)seedream-5.0-lite, seedream-4.5
  • Qwen (DashScope)qwen-image-2.0, qwen-image-2.0-pro
  • MiniMaximage-01

Usage

Run scripts/generate.py with a UTF-8 JSON request file. The path is relative to this skill's base_dir.

  1. Use the write tool to create a uniquely named request file under the workspace tmp/ directory. Do not create it with shell echo because prompts can contain shell metacharacters.
  2. Run the script with that file:
python "<base_dir>/scripts/generate.py" --json-file "<workspace>/tmp/image-generation-request-<unique>.json"

On Windows, the bash tool runs through cmd.exe: never pass inline JSON wrapped in single quotes. cmd.exe does not treat single quotes as argument delimiters and will corrupt the JSON. The --json-file form works on every supported platform and is the preferred form. Inline JSON remains supported on POSIX shells for backward compatibility only.

Set bash timeout to at least 600 seconds, as image generation can take 30–200s per provider, and the script may try multiple providers sequentially.

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Default Description
prompt string yes Image description
image_url string / list no null Input image(s) for editing: local file path or URL. Multi-image fusion is supported (pass a list)
quality string no auto low / medium / high (only some backends honour this)
size string no auto 512 / 1K / 2K / 3K / 4K, or pixel value (1024x1024)
aspect_ratio string no null 1:1 / 3:2 / 2:3 / 16:9 / 9:16 / 21:9 (some backends also support extreme ratios like 1:4 / 8:1)

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.
