par AgriciDaniel · AgriciDaniel/banana-claude

AI image generation skill for Claude Code — a creative director powered by Gemini that prompts the model so you don't have to.

Banana Claude turns Claude Code into a creative director for AI images. You describe the shot at a high level; the skill expands it into a Gemini-ready prompt with composition, lighting, and style directives, then calls Gemini to render. Good for hero images, social cards, and brand-consistent stills.

Cas d'usage

Usages concrets : banana-claude

How to generate a hero image for a blog post

👤 Writers and marketers who want one-shot polished hero images ⏱ ~5 min beginner

Quand l'utiliser : You have a post title and a vibe in mind — you need one hero image in the next 2 minutes.

Prérequis
  • Gemini API key — Set GEMINI_API_KEY in env
  • Skill installed — git clone https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude ~/.claude/skills/banana-claude
Déroulement
  1. Describe the shot
    Banana Claude: hero image for 'The 2AM Bug That Cost Us $40k' — moody, cinematic, developer at a laptop lit by monitor glow.✓ Copié
    → Expanded prompt with lens/lighting details echoed back
  2. Review and generate
    Generate 2 variants and save to assets/hero-2am-bug.png✓ Copié
    → Two PNGs with different takes on the brief

Résultat : A hero image that looks commissioned, not generated.

Pièges
  • All outputs share a 'Gemini look' — Add a style anchor — 'in the style of Annie Leibovitz portraits' — to break the default
Combiner avec : smart-illustrator-skill

Generate a brand-consistent social image pack

👤 Solo marketers maintaining a consistent feed look ⏱ ~15 min beginner

Quand l'utiliser : You need 6-10 images that feel like they belong together.

Prérequis
  • Brand style notes (palette, mood) — Write 3-5 lines; skill uses as style guardrail
Déroulement
  1. Lock a style anchor
    My brand style: muted pastels, isometric, soft shadows. Lock that as the anchor for the session.✓ Copié
    → Skill confirms and echoes the anchor
  2. Iterate per post
    Now generate images for these 6 post titles using the anchor.✓ Copié
    → 6 on-brand images

Résultat : A cohesive image set ready for a week of posts.

Pièges
  • Drift after image 3 — Re-state the anchor every 2-3 generations; Gemini's context on image specifics is fuzzy

Dépannage

Erreurs courantes et correctifs

Gemini returns blurry/low-quality image

Include a resolution and aspect-ratio hint in the brief; ask for 'photographic, high detail, 4K'

Safety filter blocks the generation

Simplify the brief; remove ambiguous references to people or brands

Skill not triggering

Explicit invocation works best: 'Use banana-claude to ...'

Vérifier : ls ~/.claude/skills/banana-claude/SKILL.md
