Image Generation (AI SDK)

Official API-based image generation via AI SDK. Supports OpenAI (DALL-E, GPT Image) and Google (Imagen, Gemini multimodal).

Script Directory

Important: All scripts are located in the scripts/ subdirectory of this skill.

Agent Execution Instructions:

1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as SKILL_DIR
2. Script path = ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/<script-name>.ts
3. Replace all ${SKILL_DIR} in this document with the actual path

Script Reference:

Quick Start

# Basic generation (auto-detect provider)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png

# With aspect ratio
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A landscape" --image landscape.png --ar 16:9

# High quality (2k)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png --quality 2k

# Specific provider
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png --provider openai

# From prompt files
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image out.png

# With reference images (Google multimodal only)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Make blue" --image out.png --ref source.png

Commands

Basic Image Generation

# Generate with prompt
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A sunset over mountains" --image sunset.png

# Shorthand
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts -p "A cute robot" --image robot.png

Aspect Ratios

# Common ratios: 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 2.35:1
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A portrait" --image portrait.png --ar 3:4

# Or specify exact size
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Banner" --image banner.png --size 1792x1024

Reference Images (Google Multimodal)

# Image editing with reference
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Make it blue" --image blue.png --ref original.png

# Multiple references
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Combine these styles" --image out.png --ref a.png b.png

Quality Presets

# Normal quality (default)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png --quality normal

# High quality (2k resolution)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png --quality 2k

Output Formats

# Plain output (prints saved path)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png

# JSON output
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image cat.png --json

Options

Environment Variables

Load Priority: CLI args > process.env > <cwd>/.baoyu-skills/.env > ~/.baoyu-skills/.env

Provider & Model Strategy

Auto-Selection

1. If --provider specified → use it
2. If only one API key available → use that provider
3. If both available → default to Google (multimodal LLMs more versatile)

API Selection by Model Type

Available Models

Google:

• gemini-3-pro-image-preview - Default, multimodal generation
• gemini-2.0-flash-exp-image-generation - Gemini 2.0 Flash
• imagen-3.0-generate-002 - Imagen 3

OpenAI:

• gpt-image-1.5 - Default, GPT Image 1.5
• gpt-image-1 - GPT Image 1
• dall-e-3 - DALL-E 3

Quality Presets

Aspect Ratio Handling

• Multimodal LLMs: Embedded in prompt (e.g., "... aspect ratio 16:9")
• Image-only models: Uses aspectRatio or size parameter
• Common ratios: 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 2.35:1

Examples

Generate Cover Image

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts \
  --prompt "A minimalist tech illustration with blue gradients" \
  --image cover.png --ar 2.35:1 --quality 2k

Generate Social Media Post

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts \
  --prompt "Instagram post about coffee" \
  --image post.png --ar 1:1

Edit Image with Reference

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts \
  --prompt "Change the background to sunset" \
  --image edited.png --ref original.png --provider google

Batch Generation from Prompt File

# Create prompt file with detailed instructions
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts \
  --promptfiles style-guide.md scene-description.md \
  --image scene.png

Error Handling

• Missing API key: Clear error with setup instructions
• Generation failure: Auto-retry once, then error
• Invalid aspect ratio: Warning, proceed with default
• Reference images with image-only model: Warning, ignore refs

Extension Support

Custom configurations via EXTEND.md.

Check paths (priority order):

1. .baoyu-skills/baoyu-image-gen/EXTEND.md (project)
2. ~/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-image-gen/EXTEND.md (user)

If found, load before workflow. Extension content overrides defaults.
