ez-google-imagen（EZ Google imagen 图像）

ez-google-imagen

Generate new images or edit existing ones using Google's Gemini and Imagen models.

Currently supports:

• Vertex AI ADC (Application Default Credentials) - default
• Gemini API key - fallback

Models

Use --model to select. Default: gemini-3-pro-image-preview.

Model Aliases

Short names you can use instead of full model IDs:

Example: --model nano-banana is equivalent to --model gemini-3-pro-image-preview.

Imagen models use generate_images API (generation only). Gemini models use generate_content API (generation + editing).

Usage

Script path (do NOT cd to skill directory first):

SCRIPT=~/.openclaw/skills/ez-google-imagen/scripts/generate_image.py

Generate (Gemini, default):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "your image description" --filename "output-name.png"

Generate (Imagen 4):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "your image description" --filename "output-name.png" --model imagen-4.0-generate-001

Generate (API key fallback):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "your image description" --filename "output-name.png" --api-key KEY

Edit existing image (Gemini only):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "editing instructions" --filename "output-name.png" --input-image "path/to/input.png"

Important: Always run from the user's current working directory so images are saved where the user is working, not in the skill directory.

Default Workflow (draft → iterate → final)

Goal: fast iteration without burning time on 4K until the prompt is correct.

• Draft (1K): quick feedback loop

- uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "<draft prompt>" --filename "yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss-draft.png" --resolution 1K

• Iterate: adjust prompt in small diffs; keep filename new per run

- If editing: keep the same --input-image for every iteration until you're happy.

• Final (4K): only when prompt is locked

- uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "<final prompt>" --filename "yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss-final.png" --resolution 4K

Resolution Options

The Gemini image API supports three resolutions (uppercase K required):

• 1K (default) - ~1024px resolution
• 2K - ~2048px resolution
• 4K - ~4096px resolution

Map user requests to API parameters:

• No mention of resolution → 1K
• "low resolution", "1080", "1080p", "1K" → 1K
• "2K", "2048", "normal", "medium resolution" → 2K
• "high resolution", "high-res", "hi-res", "4K", "ultra" → 4K

Authentication

The script supports two authentication methods:

1. Vertex AI ADC (Default)

Uses Application Default Credentials - no configuration needed if ADC is set up.

• Default project: read from GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT env var, or auto-detected from ADC
• Default location: global
• Override with --project and --location flags if needed

2. API Key (Fallback)

If you need to use a Gemini API key instead:

1. --api-key argument (use if user provided key in chat)
2. GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable

The script tries Vertex AI ADC first (if no API key provided), then falls back to API key auth.

Preflight + Common Failures (fast fixes)

• Preflight:

- command -v uv (must exist) - Vertex AI ADC configured (default) OR GEMINI_API_KEY set / --api-key passed - If editing: test -f "path/to/input.png"

• Common failures:

- Error: Failed to initialize Vertex AI with ADC → run gcloud auth application-default login or provide API key - Error loading input image: → wrong path / unreadable file; verify --input-image points to a real image - "quota/permission/403" style API errors → wrong credentials, no access, or quota exceeded

Filename Generation

Generate filenames with the pattern: yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss-name.png

Format: {timestamp}-{descriptive-name}.png

• Timestamp: Current date/time in format yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss (24-hour format)
• Name: Descriptive lowercase text with hyphens
• Keep the descriptive part concise (1-5 words typically)
• Use context from user's prompt or conversation
• If unclear, use random identifier (e.g., x9k2, a7b3)

Examples:

• Prompt "A serene Japanese garden" → 2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png
• Prompt "sunset over mountains" → 2025-11-23-15-30-12-sunset-mountains.png
• Prompt "create an image of a robot" → 2025-11-23-16-45-33-robot.png
• Unclear context → 2025-11-23-17-12-48-x9k2.png

Image Editing

When the user wants to modify an existing image:

1. Check if they provide an image path or reference an image in the current directory
2. Use --input-image parameter with the path to the image
3. The prompt should contain editing instructions (e.g., "make the sky more dramatic", "remove the person", "change to cartoon style")
4. Common editing tasks: add/remove elements, change style, adjust colors, blur background, etc.

Prompt Handling

For generation: Pass user's image description as-is to --prompt. Only rework if clearly insufficient.

For editing: Pass editing instructions in --prompt (e.g., "add a rainbow in the sky", "make it look like a watercolor painting")

Preserve user's creative intent in both cases.

Prompt Templates (high hit-rate)

Use templates when the user is vague or when edits must be precise.

• Generation template:

- "Create an image of:. Style:. Composition: <camera/shot>. Lighting:. Background:. Color palette:. Avoid:."

• Editing template (preserve everything else):

- "Change ONLY:. Keep identical: subject, composition/crop, pose, lighting, color palette, background, text, and overall style. Do not add new objects. If text exists, keep it unchanged."

Output

• Saves PNG to current directory (or specified path if filename includes directory)
• Script outputs the full path to the generated image
• Do not read the image back - just inform the user of the saved path

Examples

Generate with Gemini (default):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "A serene Japanese garden with cherry blossoms" --filename "2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png" --resolution 4K

Generate with Imagen 4:

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "A serene Japanese garden" --filename "2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png" --model imagen-4.0-generate-001

Edit existing image (Gemini only):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "make the sky more dramatic with storm clouds" --filename "2025-11-23-14-25-30-dramatic-sky.png" --input-image "original-photo.jpg" --resolution 2K

Using API key (fallback):

uv run $SCRIPT --prompt "A mountain landscape" --filename "mountain.png" --api-key "your-api-key-here"
