Skill instructions
Image Generation Skill Generates or edits images for the current project (for example website assets, game assets, UI mockups, product mockups, wireframes, logo design, photorealistic images, or infographics). Top-level modes and rules This skill has exactly two top-level modes: - Default built-in tool mode (preferred): built-in imagegen tool for normal image generation and editing. Does not require OPENAIAPIKEY. - Fallback CLI mode (explicit-only): scripts/imagegen.py CLI. Use only when the user explicitly asks for the CLI path. Requires OPENAIAPIKEY. Within the explicit CLI fallback only, the CLI exposes three subcommands: - generate - edit - generate-batch Rules: - Use the built-in imagegen tool by default for all normal image generation and editing requests. - Never switch to CLI fallback automatically. - If the built-in tool fails or is unavailable, tell the user the CLI fallback exists and that it requires OPENAIAPIKEY. Proceed only if the user explicitly asks for that fallback.
