SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Adding illustrations to articles usually means inconsistent, off-topic images and manual prompt writing. This Skill analyzes an article, identifies where illustrations add value, and generates images with consistent type, style, and palette across the whole piece. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Three-dimension consistency framework: Combine illustration type (infographic, scene, flowchart, comparison, framework, timeline) with 23 styles and 4 palettes, or use ready-made presets like tech-explainer and storytelling. - Structured 7-step workflow: Analyzes content, confirms settings, produces an outline, saves reproducible prompt files, generates images via image_generate, and inserts Markdown image references into the article. - Reference image support: Uses vision_analyze to extract style, palette, and composition descriptions from reference images and embeds them into prompts. - Use Case: Given a technical blog post about API design, apply the tech-explainer preset to produce blueprint-style infographics with the article's actual metrics, saved alongside the article in an imgs/ directory. ## Quick Start Illustrate my article api-design.md using the tech-explainer preset with balanced density.

Frequently Asked Questions about baoyu-article-illustrator

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add illustrations to a Markdown article with AI?

Provide the article file path or paste its content and request illustration, optionally specifying a type, style, palette, or preset. The skill analyzes the content, plans illustration positions, generates images, and inserts Markdown image links after the relevant paragraphs.

What illustration styles and types are available for article images?

Six types are supported: infographic, scene, flowchart, comparison, framework, and timeline. These combine with 23 styles such as blueprint, notion, watercolor, and ink-notes, plus 4 palettes (macaron, warm, neon, mono-ink), or presets like tech-explainer and storytelling.

Can I use reference images to guide the generated illustration style?

Yes. Provide a reference image path or URL and vision_analyze extracts a textual description of its style, palette, and composition. That description is embedded into the generation prompt as a direct, style, or palette reference, since image_generate does not accept image inputs.

Where are the generated article images saved?

For an article file path, images default to an imgs/ subdirectory next to the article. For pasted content, they go to illustrations/{topic-slug}/ in the current working directory. You can override the layout in your request.

What happens if image generation fails during the workflow?

The skill retries image_generate once on generation failure and retries the curl download once with a longer timeout on download failure. Remaining failures are logged and reported in the final summary while other illustrations continue.
