Source excerpt starting at line 1.# Sample prompts (copy/paste) These prompt recipes are shared across both top-level modes of the skill:- built-in `image_gen` tool (default)- `scripts/image_gen.py` CLI fallback for explicit or user-confirmed CLI/API/model requests Use these as starting points. They are intentionally complete prompt recipes, not the default amount of augmentation to add to every user request. When adapting a user's prompt:- keep user-provided requirements- only add detail according to the specificity policy in `SKILL.md`- do not treat every example below as permission to invent extra story elements The labeled lines are prompt scaffolding, not a closed schema. `Asset type` and `Input images` are prompt-only scaffolding; the CLI does not expose them as dedicated flags. Execution details such as explicit CLI flags, `quality`, `input_fidelity`, masks, output formats, and local output paths depend on mode. Use built-in `image_gen` by default, request transparent backgrounds directly, and preserve the generated alpha; apply CLI-specific controls only when the user chooses or confirms that fallback. CLI model notes:- `gpt-image-2` is the fallback CLI default for new workflows.- `gpt-image-2` supports `quality` values `low`, `medium`, `high`, and `auto`.- For 4K-style `gpt-image-2` output, use `3840x2160` or `2160x3840`.- CLI `gpt-image-2` does not support `background=transparent`; ask before using `gpt-image-1.5` unless the user explicitly requested that model.- Do not set `input_fidelity` with `gpt-image-2`; image inputs already use high fidelity. For prompting principles (structure, specificity, invariants, iteration), see `references/prompting.md`. ## Generate ### photorealistic-natural```Use case: photorealistic-naturalPrimary request: candid photo of an elderly sailor on a small fishing boat adjusting a netScene/backdrop: coastal water with soft hazeSubject: weathered skin with wrinkles and sun textureStyle/medium: photorealistic candid photoComposition/framing: medium close-up, eye-levelLighting/mood: soft coastal daylight, shallow depth of field, subtle film grainMaterials/textures: real skin texture, worn fabric, salt-worn woodConstraints: natural color balance;
