Imagen Generator

Gemini Image Generator (Nano Banana)

Generate or edit images using Gemini 3 Pro Image (gemini-3-pro-image) on Vertex AI, save to CC Pages, and share.

Two modes:

• Text-to-image — pure prompt, model invents from scratch
• Image-to-image (修图) — pass --image <path> one or more times; model treats them as visual baselines and the text prompt as the editing instruction (preserve / add / remove / restyle)

Usage

Call the generation script directly:

~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "your prompt here"

Options

# Basic generation (1 image, 1:1 aspect ratio, 1K resolution)
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "a cute cat sitting on a GPU server"

# Custom aspect ratio: 1:1, 3:4, 4:3, 16:9, 9:16, 3:2, 2:3, 4:5, 5:4, 21:9, 4:1, 1:4, 8:1, 1:8
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "TPU pod in a datacenter" --aspect 16:9

# Multiple images (1-4, generated sequentially)
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "neural network visualization" --count 2

# Resolution: 1K (default), 2K, 4K
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "landscape photo" --resolution 2K

# Custom output filename
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "logo design" --output my-logo

# Override model (default: gemini-3-pro-image)
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "photo" --model gemini-3.1-flash-image

# Combine options
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "B200 GPU rack in datacenter, photorealistic" --aspect 16:9 --resolution 2K --count 2

Image-to-Image (修图)

Pass --image <path> to provide a visual baseline. The text prompt becomes the editing instruction (what to keep, what to add, what to change). Repeat --image for multiple references — first one is the primary baseline.

# 在一张图上加元素，保持原风格
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh \
  "Keep the cyberpunk style unchanged. Add a glowing holographic dashboard in the upper-left corner showing 4 floating cards." \
  --image ~/CloseCrab/crab-with-claude-code-inside.png \
  --aspect 4:5 --resolution 2K --output poster-with-cards

# 多参考图：第一张是主 baseline，后面是风格/元素参考
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh \
  "Combine subject of first image with the lighting and color palette of second image" \
  --image subject.png --image style_ref.png \
  --aspect 16:9 --resolution 2K

# 改 aspect 重构图（recompose）— 模型会保留主体，重新构图填满目标比例
~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh \
  "Same subject, recompose for vertical poster, keep cinematic mood" \
  --image hero.png --aspect 9:16 --resolution 2K

Prompt 写法建议（修图）：

• 明确写"KEEP UNCHANGED:"列出要保留的元素（风格、材质、灯光、构图）
• 明确写"ADD:" / "CHANGE:" / "REMOVE:" 列出要修改的元素
• 最后强调"this must still look like the same artwork"，否则模型可能跑偏成纯文生图
• 改 aspect 时加"recompose for ... aspect, keep [subject] as dominant element"

支持的图片格式：.png, .jpg, .jpeg, .webp, .gif

Output

• Images saved to $CC_PAGES_WEB_ROOT/assets/imagen/ as PNG
• Returns the public URL: $CC_PAGES_URL_PREFIX/assets/imagen/{filename}.png
• When called from Discord context, send the URL using send-to-discord.sh --plain

Workflow for Discord

# 1. Generate image
URL=$(~/.claude/skills/imagen-generator/scripts/imagen-generate.sh "your prompt" --aspect 16:9)

# 2. Send to Discord
~/.claude/scripts/send-to-discord.sh --plain "$URL"

Model

• gemini-3-pro-image (default) — Gemini 3 Pro Image, best quality, supports text+image generation
• gemini-3.1-flash-image — Nano Banana 2, faster, good price-performance

Supported Aspect Ratios

1:1, 3:4, 4:3, 16:9, 9:16, 3:2, 2:3, 4:5, 5:4, 21:9, 4:1, 1:4, 8:1, 1:8

Supported Resolutions

1K (default), 2K, 4K　（512 不被模型支持，会返回 400）

Prompt Tips

• Be specific and descriptive: "a red sports car on a mountain road at sunset, photorealistic" > "car"
• Supports Chinese prompts natively (simplified & traditional)
• For technical diagrams, add style keywords: "technical illustration", "blueprint style", "infographic"
• Gemini models can also generate text within images (e.g., signs, labels, infographics)

Prerequisites

• google-genai Python SDK (pip install google-genai)
• Application Default Credentials configured (gcloud auth application-default login)
• Vertex AI API enabled on the GCP project
• CC Pages (GCS-backed via $CC_PAGES_WEB_ROOT)
