Image Generation (AI SDK)

Official API-based image generation. Supports OpenAI, Google, DashScope (阿里通义万象), Replicate and APIMart providers.

Script Directory

Agent Execution:

1. SKILL_DIR = this SKILL.md file’s directory
2. Script path = ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts

Preferences (EXTEND.md)

Use Bash to check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):

# Check project-level first
test -f .baoyu-skills/baoyu-image-gen/EXTEND.md && echo "project"

# Then user-level (cross-platform: $HOME works on macOS/Linux/WSL)
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-image-gen/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"

Usage

# Basic
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 out.png --ar 16:9

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

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

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

# With reference images (explicit provider/model)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Make blue" --image out.png --provider google --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview --ref source.png

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

# DashScope (阿里通义万象)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "一只可爱的猫" --image out.png --provider dashscope

# Replicate (google/nano-banana-pro)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image out.png --provider replicate

# Replicate with specific model
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image out.png --provider replicate --model google/nano-banana

# APIMart (Gemini-3-Pro-Image-preview, async task polling)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat in watercolor style" --image out.png --provider apimart

# APIMart with reference image
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Make this into anime style" --image out.png --provider apimart --ref source.png

# APIMart with doubao-seedream-5-0-lite model
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cinematic mountain sunrise" --image out.png --provider apimart --model doubao-seedream-5-0-lite

Options

Environment Variables

Load Priority: CLI args > EXTEND.md > env vars > <cwd>/.baoyu-skills/.env > ~/.baoyu-skills/.env

Replicate Model Configuration

When using --provider replicate, the model can be configured in the following ways (highest priority first):

1. CLI flag: --model <owner/name>
2. EXTEND.md: default_model.replicate
3. Env var: REPLICATE_IMAGE_MODEL
4. Built-in default: google/nano-banana-pro

Supported model formats:

• owner/name (recommended for official models), e.g. google/nano-banana-pro
• owner/name:version (community models by version), e.g. stability-ai/sdxl:<version>

Examples:

# Use Replicate default model
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image out.png --provider replicate

# Override model explicitly
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cat" --image out.png --provider replicate --model google/nano-banana

Provider Selection

1. --ref provided + no --provider → auto-select Google first, then OpenAI, then Replicate, then APIMart
2. --provider specified → use it (if --ref, must be google, openai, replicate, or apimart)
3. Only one API key available → use that provider
4. Multiple available → default to Google

Quality Presets

Google/APIMart imageSize: Can be overridden with --imageSize 1K|2K|4K

Aspect Ratios

Supported: 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 2.35:1

• Google multimodal: uses imageConfig.aspectRatio
• Google Imagen: uses aspectRatio parameter
• OpenAI: maps to closest supported size

Generation Mode

Default: Sequential generation (one image at a time). This ensures stable output and easier debugging.

Parallel Generation: Only use when user explicitly requests parallel/concurrent generation.

Parallel Settings (when requested):

Agent Implementation (parallel mode only):

# Launch multiple generations in parallel using Task tool
# Each Task runs as background subagent with run_in_background=true
# Collect results via TaskOutput when all complete

Error Handling

• Missing API key → error with setup instructions
• Generation failure → auto-retry once
• Invalid aspect ratio → warning, proceed with default
• Reference images with unsupported provider/model → error with fix hint (switch to Google multimodal, OpenAI GPT Image edits, Replicate, or APIMart)

Extension Support

Custom configurations via EXTEND.md. See Preferences section for paths and supported options.
