SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables users to generate AI-driven images from textual prompts using Gemini Nano Banana Pro, simplifying illustration creation and image edits without requiring manual drawing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Prompt-based image generation using gemini-3-pro-image-preview to produce high-quality visuals.
  • Configurable output: supports 1K, 2K, or 4K resolutions and multiple aspect ratios (1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9, 21:9).
  • Reference-assisted editing: leverage up to 14 reference images to guide style or content.
  • Usage scenarios: concept art, illustrations, product visuals, or quick visuals from a short prompt in creative work.

Quick Start

  1. Analyze the user request to extract:
    • prompt, resolution, aspect ratio, and reference images.
  2. Build a detailed, style-aware prompt (prefer English) for Gemini.
  3. Generate with Gemini CLI: gemini --yolo --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview "Generate an image: {Prompt}"
  4. Check the output path and share results with the user.
  5. Optional: specify options inline, for example: gemini --yolo --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview "Generate an image with 16:9 aspect ratio at 2K resolution: {Prompt}"
  6. If using references: gemini --yolo --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview "Edit this image: {Edit instruction}" --files {image_path}

Note: Gemini CLI must be installed, API key configured, and generated images will include a SynthID watermark. Inappropriate content generation is rejected.
