Script Directory

Important: All scripts are located in the scripts/ subdirectory of this skill.

Agent Execution Instructions:

1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as {baseDir}
2. Script path = {baseDir}/scripts/<script-name>.ts
3. Replace all {baseDir} in this document with the actual path
4. Resolve ${BUN_X} runtime: if bun installed → bun; if npx available → npx -y bun; else suggest installing bun

File Structure

Output directory: comic/{topic-slug}/

• Slug: 2-4 words kebab-case from topic (e.g., alan-turing-bio)
• Conflict: append timestamp (e.g., turing-story-20260118-143052)

Rule: Use user's input language or saved language preference for ALL interactions:

• Storyboard outlines and scene descriptions
• Image generation prompts
• User selection options and confirmations
• Progress updates, questions, errors, summaries

Step Summary

Step 7: Image Generation ⚠️ CRITICAL

Character reference is MANDATORY for visual consistency.

7.1 Generate character sheet first:

• Backup rule: If characters/characters.png exists, rename to characters/characters-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png
• Invoke an installed image generation skill such as baoyu-image-gen
• Read that skill's SKILL.md and follow its documented interface rather than calling its scripts directly
• Use characters/characters.md as the prompt-file input
• Save output to characters/characters.png
• Use aspect ratio 4:3

Compress character sheet (recommended): Compress to reduce token usage when used as reference image:

• Use available image compression skill (if any)
• Or system tools: pngquant, optipng, sips (macOS)
• Keep PNG format, lossless compression preferred

7.2 Generate each page WITH character reference:

Backup rules for page generation:

• If prompt file exists: rename to prompts/NN-{cover|page}-[slug]-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md
• If image file exists: rename to NN-{cover|page}-[slug]-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png
• Invoke the installed image generation skill for each page
• Use prompts/01-page-xxx.md as the prompt-file input
• Save output to 01-page-xxx.png
• Use aspect ratio 3:4
• If the chosen skill supports reference images, pass characters/characters.png as --ref

EXTEND.md Paths ⛔ BLOCKING

CRITICAL: If EXTEND.md not found, MUST complete first-time setup before ANY other questions or steps. Do NOT proceed to content analysis, do NOT ask about art style, do NOT ask about tone — ONLY complete the preferences setup first.

EXTEND.md Supports: Watermark | Preferred art/tone/layout | Custom style definitions | Character presets | Language preference

Schema: references/config/preferences-schema.md

Page Modification

IMPORTANT: When updating pages, ALWAYS update the prompt file (prompts/NN-{cover|page}-[slug].md) FIRST before regenerating. This ensures changes are documented and reproducible.

Notes

• Image generation: 10-30 seconds per page
• Auto-retry once on generation failure
• Use stylized alternatives for sensitive public figures
• Maintain style consistency via session ID
• Step 2 confirmation required - do not skip
• Steps 4/6 conditional - only if user requested in Step 2
• Step 7.1 character sheet MUST be generated before pages - ensures consistency
• Step 7.2 EVERY page MUST reference characters - use --ref or embed descriptions
• Watermark/language configured once in EXTEND.md
