# Image Generation Skill
Generates or edits images for the current project (for example website assets, game assets, UI mockups, product mockups, wireframes, logo design, photorealistic images, or infographics).
## Top-level modes and rules
This skill has exactly two top-level modes:
- **Default built-in tool mode (preferred):** built-in `image_gen` tool for image generation, editing, and transparent-image requests. Does not require `OPENAI_API_KEY`.
- **Fallback CLI mode:** `scripts/image_gen.py` CLI. Use when the user explicitly asks for or confirms the CLI/API/model path. Requires `OPENAI_API_KEY`.
Within CLI fallback, the CLI exposes three subcommands:
- `generate`
- `edit`
- `generate-batch`
Rules:
- Use the built-in `image_gen` tool by default for normal image generation and editing requests.
- Do not switch to CLI fallback for ordinary quality, size, or file-path control.
- For transparent images, ask built-in `image_gen` for a transparent background and preserve the generated alpha.
- Never silently switch from built-in `image_gen` or CLI `gpt-image-2` to CLI `gpt-image-1.5`; ask the user first unless they explicitly requested `gpt-image-1.5`.
- The word `batch` by itself does not mean CLI fallback. If the user asks for many assets or says to batch-generate assets without explicitly asking for CLI/API/model controls, stay on the built-in path and issue one built-in call per requested asset or variant.
- If the built-in tool fails or is unavailable, tell the use
