      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config 열기. 저장 후 앱 재시작.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "banana-claude-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",

      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor는 Claude Desktop과 동일한 mcpServers 스키마 사용. 프로젝트 설정이 전역보다 우선.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "banana-claude-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude",
        "~/.claude/skills/banana-claude"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cline 사이드바의 MCP Servers 아이콘 클릭 후 "Edit Configuration" 선택.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "banana-claude-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude",
        "~/.claude/skills/banana-claude"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop과 같은 형식. Windsurf 재시작 후 적용.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "banana-claude-skill",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude",
        "~/.claude/skills/banana-claude"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue는 맵이 아닌 서버 오브젝트 배열 사용.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "banana-claude-skill": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude",
          "~/.claude/skills/banana-claude"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

context_servers에 추가. 저장 시 Zed가 핫 리로드.

claude mcp add banana-claude-skill -- git clone https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude ~/.claude/skills/banana-claude

한 줄 명령. claude mcp list로 확인, claude mcp remove로 제거.

Review and generate

Generate 2 variants and save to assets/hero-2am-bug.png✓ 복사됨

→ Two PNGs with different takes on the brief

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

함정

All outputs share a 'Gemini look' — Add a style anchor — 'in the style of Annie Leibovitz portraits' — to break the default

호출당 토큰: 1-3k Claude tokens for prompt expansion
금액: Free on Gemini free tier; ~$0.04/image on paid tier

보안

권한, 시크릿, 파급범위

자격 증명 저장: GEMINI_API_KEY in env

데이터 외부 송신: All briefs and outputs go to Google Gemini

Brief text is sent to Gemini — don't include confidential product details.

문제 해결

자주 발생하는 오류와 해결

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 ...'
