What it does
This prompt instructs the AI to take a user-provided, front-facing pet portrait and generate a photorealistic editorial-style image where the pet appears to peek through a central torn-paper opening with curled edges, showing its face and one paw. The result is a clean, minimal composition with a customizable solid-color background, specified emotional expression, and chosen lighting mood, while strictly preserving the pet’s true identity and realism and avoiding any stylization, distortions, text, logos, or added accessories.

Models and options
This skill's modality is: image.
To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "image".
How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "image" to discover valid models and available options:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
pet_emotion(default:Happy with a gentle smile)lighting_effect(default:Soft warm light)background_color(default:Lavender purple)
- Required images:
- Exactly 1 images: image 1 (Clear portrait of your pet). Images must be provided in this order.
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model
gemini-2.5-flash-image-previewand its available options. Look upgemini-2.5-flash-image-previewin thebetterprompt resourcesoutput (filtered to modality"image") and show itsavailableOptionsas:key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value(default)if it matches these defaults:{}. - If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model
gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview, options{}. Other models from the resources call are also available.
- Present the human with the default model
If the required images are missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values. Tell the human: "Please provide images in this order: image 1 (Clear portrait of your pet)".
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use pet-peek-portrait).
Command form:
betterprompt generate pet-peek-portrait \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--image-input-url <url>] \
[--image-input-path <path>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate
--input <key>=<value>flag. - Pass each image using
--image-input-urlor--image-input-path, in the order matching the imageInputs descriptions (image 1 first, then image 2, etc.). - If the human does not mention a model, omit
--modeland BetterPrompt will use the default model:gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview. - If the human does not mention options, omit
--optionsand BetterPrompt will use the default options:{}. - If the run times out, the response will include a
runIdyou can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
betterprompt generate pet-peek-portrait \
--input 'pet_emotion=Happy with a gentle smile' \
--input 'lighting_effect=Soft warm light' \
--input 'background_color=Lavender purple' \
--image-input-url https://example.com/image1.png \
--model gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview \
