imagegen

AI raster image generation for UI design and game art assets is handled by a built-in image_gen tool that creates brand-new bitmaps from text prompts without requiring an API key. It validates size, quality, and output format while producing multiple variants for project workflows.

Editing existing images and transforming references into new variants is supported by the built-in image_gen tool for automated raster asset workflows. It applies prompt augmentation and validates output parameters to manage transformed marketing visuals and game art.

An OpenAI API key is required only when using the explicit CLI fallback mode via scripts/image_gen.py. The default built-in image_gen tool operates without any API key, allowing automated generation and editing of raster images directly.

Writing prompts for AI image generation to get consistent project assets is guided by references/prompting.md and references/sample-prompts.md. These references provide prompting guidelines and governance for prompt augmentation, size validation, and asset management across visual workflows.

Output size, quality, and format validation is enforced natively by the built-in image_gen workflow to manage raster project assets properly. It checks these parameters during automated generation and editing to ensure generated bitmaps meet workflow specifications.
