What it does
Generate AI images using Gemini or GPT APIs directly. Covers model selection (Gemini for scenes; GPT Image 2 for text rendering, batch variations, multi-reference compositing; GPT Image 1.5 for transparent icons), the 5-part prompting framework, API calling patterns, multi-turn editing, and quality assurance. Produces photorealistic scenes, icons, illustrations, OG images, posters, infographics, and product shots. Use when building websites that need images, creating marketing assets, or generating visual content. Triggers: 'generate image', 'ai image', 'create hero image', 'make an icon', 'generate illustration', 'create og image', 'poster', 'infographic', 'image variations', 'gpt-image-2', 'ai art', 'image generation'.
AI Image Generator
Generate images using AI APIs (Google Gemini and OpenAI GPT). This skill teaches the prompting patterns and API mechanics for producing professional images directly from Claude Code.
Managed alternative: If you don't want to manage API keys, ImageBot provides a managed image generation service with album templates and brand kit support.
Model Selection
Choose the right model for the job:
| Need | Model | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Photorealistic scenes / stock photos | Gemini 3.1 Flash Image | Best depth, complexity, environmental context |
| Final client scenes (higher detail) | Gemini 3 Pro Image | Higher detail, better style consistency |
| Text on images (posters, OG with copy, infographics) | GPT Image 2 | Text rendering actually works, including multi-script |
| 10-variation style exploration | GPT Image 2 | Native batch, one prompt, 10 variants sharing composition + palette |
| Multi-reference compositing (product + lifestyle) | GPT Image 2 | Handles lighting, scale, perspective across references |
| Transparent icons / logos | GPT Image 1.5 | Native RGBA alpha, GPT Image 2 cannot do transparency |
| Quick drafts / iteration | Gemini 2.5 Flash Image | Free tier (~500/day) |
Rule of thumb: any image with readable text → GPT Image 2 (unless you need transparency, then GPT 1.5). Otherwise → Gemini.
