Nano Banana, Image Generation

Image generation script supporting three models. Requires sharp for input image compression (auto-installed on first run).

Models

Flag	Notes
--model nano-banana	Default. Fast, good quality.
--model nano-banana-pro	Highest quality, slower.
--model nano-banana-2	Legacy model.

Generate an image

node {baseDir}/scripts/generate-image.js --prompt "a cat sitting on mars" --filename "cat-on-mars.png"

Edit a single image

node {baseDir}/scripts/generate-image.js \
  --prompt "make the sky purple" \
  --filename "edited.png" \
  -i "/path/to/input.png" \
  --model nano-banana-pro

Multi-image composition (up to 14 images)

node {baseDir}/scripts/generate-image.js \
  --prompt "combine these into a collage" \
  --filename "collage.png" \
  -i img1.png -i img2.png -i img3.png

Options

--filename	-f	required	Output filename
--input-image	-i	,	Input image(s), repeatable, max 14
--model	,	nano-banana	nano-banana, nano-banana-pro, or nano-banana-2
--resolution	-r	1K	1K, 2K, or 4K

API key

The API key is pre-configured on this machine. No flags or environment variables needed.

Input image handling

All input images are sent as inline base64. Images over 500 KB are automatically compressed to JPEG and resized to fit under the limit. This keeps requests fast and avoids File API auth issues with the enterprise endpoint.
