# Imagen - AI Image Generation Skill
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This skill generates images using Google Gemini's image generation model (`gemini-3-pro-image-preview`). It enables seamless image creation during any Claude Code session - whether you're building frontend UIs, creating documentation, or need visual representations of concepts.
|
|
|
|
**Cross-Platform**: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
|
|
|
|
## When to Use This Skill
|
|
|
|
Automatically activate this skill when:
|
|
- User requests image generation (e.g., "generate an image of...", "create a picture...")
|
|
- Frontend development requires placeholder or actual images
|
|
- Documentation needs illustrations or diagrams
|
|
- Visualizing concepts, architectures, or ideas
|
|
- Creating icons, logos, or UI assets
|
|
- Any task where an AI-generated image would be helpful
|
|
|
|
## How It Works
|
|
|
|
1. Takes a text prompt describing the desired image
|
|
2. Calls Google Gemini API with image generation configuration
|
|
3. Saves the generated image to a specified location (defaults to current directory)
|
|
4. Returns the file path for use in your project
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Python (Cross-Platform - Recommended)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Basic usage
|
|
python scripts/generate_image.py "A futuristic city skyline at sunset"
|
|
|
|
# With custom output path
|
|
python scripts/generate_image.py "A minimalist app icon for a music player" "./assets/icons/music-icon.png"
|
|
|
|
# With custom size
|
|
python scripts/generate_image.py --size 2K "High resolution landscape" "./wallpaper.png"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- `GEMINI_API_KEY` environment variable must be set
|
|
- Python 3.6+ (uses standard library only, no pip install needed)
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
|
|
Generated images are saved as PNG files. The script returns:
|
|
- Success: Path to the generated image
|
|
- Failure: Error message with details
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
### Frontend Development
|
|
```
|
|
User: "I need a hero image for my landing page - something abstract and tech-focused"
|
|
-> Generates and saves image, provides path for use in HTML/CSS
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Documentation
|
|
```
|
|
User: "Create a diagram showing microservices architecture"
|
|
-> Generates visual representation, ready for README or docs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### UI Assets
|
|
```
|
|
User: "Generate a placeholder avatar image for the user profile component"
|
|
-> Creates image in appropriate size for component use
|
|
```
