5 stars

Best use case

nano-banana-pro is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Generate/edit images with Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image). Use for image creation or modification incl logos, stickers, mockups, style transfer, multi-image composition, and multi-turn refinement.

Teams using nano-banana-pro should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.

When to use this skill

  • You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.

When not to use this skill

  • You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.

# Nano Banana Pro Image Generation & Editing

## Quick Start
Generate:
```bash
uv run ~/.codex/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "A serene Japanese garden" --filename "2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png" --resolution 1K
```

Edit:
```bash
uv run ~/.codex/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "make the sky dramatic" --filename "2025-11-23-14-25-30-dramatic-sky.png" --input-image "original.png" --resolution 2K
```

Compose:
```bash
uv run ~/.codex/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/compose_images.py "Create a group photo" group.png person1.png person2.png
```

Multi-turn chat:
```bash
uv run ~/.codex/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/multi_turn_chat.py --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview --output-dir .
```

## Scripts
- `generate_image.py`: text-to-image + edit via `--input-image`, resolution 1K/2K/4K, optional `--aspect`, auto-detect resolution on edit.
- `edit_image.py`: explicit edit CLI (input, instruction, output).
- `compose_images.py`: combine up to 14 reference images.
- `multi_turn_chat.py`: interactive refine session (`/save`, `/load`, `/clear`, `/quit`).
- `gemini_images.py`: Python helper class.

## Model
- Default: `gemini-3-pro-image-preview`.
- Only use other models if user asks.

## Resolution + Aspect
- Resolution: `1K` default, `2K`, `4K`.
- Aspect ratios (where supported): `1:1`, `2:3`, `3:2`, `3:4`, `4:3`, `4:5`, `5:4`, `9:16`, `16:9`, `21:9`.
- Map words: "1080/low/1K"->1K, "2K/2048/medium"->2K, "4K/high/ultra"->4K.

## Workflow
- Draft 1K, iterate small prompt diffs, final 4K.
- For edits, keep same `--input-image` until final.

## API Key
- `GEMINI_API_KEY` required.
- `generate_image.py` also supports `--api-key`.

## Filenames
- Pattern: `yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss-name.png`.
- Lowercase, hyphenated, 1-5 words.

## Output
- Run from user cwd so files save there.
- `generate_image.py` converts output to PNG.
- Do not open/read images; report saved path.

## Preflight
- `command -v uv`
- `test -n "$GEMINI_API_KEY"`
- If editing: `test -f "path/to/input.png"`

## Common Failures
- No API key.
- Input image missing/unreadable.
- Quota/permission/403 errors.

Comprehensive agent-native architecture audit with scored principles and multi-slice review. Use for system-wide health checks or periodic audits.

write-judge-prompt

5
from marchatton/agent-skills

Design LLM-as-Judge evaluators for subjective criteria that code-based checks cannot handle. Use when a failure mode requires interpretation (tone, faithfulness, relevance, completeness). Do NOT use when the failure mode can be checked with code (regex, schema validation, execution tests). Do NOT use when you need to validate or calibrate the judge — use validate-evaluator instead.

validate-evaluator

5
from marchatton/agent-skills

Calibrate an LLM judge against human labels using data splits, TPR/TNR, and bias correction. Use after writing a judge prompt (write-judge-prompt) when you need to verify alignment before trusting its outputs. Do NOT use for code-based evaluators (those are deterministic; test with standard unit tests).

generate-synthetic-data

5
from marchatton/agent-skills

Create diverse synthetic test inputs for LLM pipeline evaluation using dimension-based tuple generation. Use when bootstrapping an eval dataset, when real user data is sparse, or when stress-testing specific failure hypotheses. Do NOT use when you already have 100+ representative real traces (use stratified sampling instead), or when the task is collecting production logs.

evaluate-rag

Guides evaluation of RAG pipeline retrieval and generation quality. Use when evaluating a retrieval-augmented generation system, measuring retrieval quality, assessing generation faithfulness or relevance, generating synthetic QA pairs for retrieval testing, or optimizing chunking strategies.

eval-audit

5
from marchatton/agent-skills

Audit an LLM eval pipeline and surface problems: missing error analysis, unvalidated judges, vanity metrics, etc. Use when inheriting an eval system, when unsure whether evals are trustworthy, or as a starting point when no eval infrastructure exists. Do NOT use when the goal is to build a new evaluator from scratch (use error-analysis, write-judge-prompt, or validate-evaluator instead).

error-analysis

5
from marchatton/agent-skills

Help the user systematically identify and categorize failure modes in an LLM pipeline by reading traces. Use when starting a new eval project, after significant pipeline changes (new features, model switches, prompt rewrites), when production metrics drop, or after incidents.
