remove-bg

remove-bg is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ZJU-REAL/Easel. It costs 168 tokens per session (1,004 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An image-editing skill that removes a picture's background and saves the subject as a transparent PNG, a solid-colour image, or a new scene.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps prepare product photos, portraits, white-background ecommerce images, and images placed into different scenes.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually trace around people or products, and it works without a green screen.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py check.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

remove-bg 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

图片去背景 / 抠图换背景

用 rembg(AI 语义分割)把主体抠出,输出透明 PNG 或换新背景。无需绿幕。全部走 skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py

绿幕视频抠像见 green-screen;电商视觉方案见 ecom-details-image; 常规缩放/裁切/水印见 image-editing

前置

首次运行自动下载模型(~4-170MB,视模型而定),需外网代理(脚本读 EASEL_PROXY/http(s)_proxy,未设则直连)。先自检:

python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py check

输入

字段 必填 说明
图片 要抠图的图片(没给就问)
输出背景 透明(默认)/ 纯色 / 换图片背景
模型 通用 / 人像 / 精细,见下表

输出(outputs/主题名/

  • 抠好的图片(透明用 .png
  • 报告:所用模型、背景形态

执行步骤

脚本路径(相对项目根):skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.pyremove -h 看参数)。

# 透明背景(务必输出 .png)
python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py remove -i product.jpg \
  -o outputs/主题名/cutout.png

# 电商白底主图
python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py remove -i product.jpg \
  -o outputs/主题名/white.jpg --bg-color white

# 换新场景背景
python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py remove -i person.jpg \
  -o outputs/主题名/scene.png --bg-image scene.jpg

# 人像 + 毛发边缘细腻
python skills/shared/scripts/remove_bg.py remove -i portrait.jpg \
  -o outputs/主题名/cut.png --model u2net_human_seg --alpha-matting

模型选择

模型 适用
u2net(默认) 通用主体
u2netp 轻量快速(质量略低)
u2net_human_seg 人像专用
isnet-general-use 更精细的通用分割
silueta 体积小的通用模型

抠不干净/边缘毛糙时:换更精细的模型,或加 --alpha-matting(慢但边缘更好,适合头发/毛绒)。

规则

  1. 要透明背景必须输出 .png(jpg 不支持透明,脚本会自动改白底并提示)。
  2. 电商主图用 --bg-color white;换场景用 --bg-image(自动等比覆盖裁切)。
  3. 人像优先 u2net_human_seg,商品/通用用 u2net
  4. 抠图质量取决于主体与背景对比度;复杂/低对比图无法保证完美。
  5. 产物统一进 outputs/主题名/

参考来源

去背景用 rembg(u2net 系列显著性目标检测/分割模型)+ onnxruntime CPU 推理,是无 GPU 抠图的 主流方案。换背景合成用 Pillow alpha_composite。把模型加载、代理注入、背景合成封装成确定性脚本。

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.
