ERNIE-Image文生图SKILL

Generate images with ERNIE-Image. Use for image create requests incl. edits. Supports text-to-image ; - 1024x1024/1376x768/1264x848/ 1200x896/896x1200/848x1264/768x1376; use --input-image.

ERNIE-ImageImage Generation & Editing

Generate new images or edit existing ones using Baidu's ERNIE-Image API.

Prerequisites

• Clawdbot installed and configured

• Need Install python openai sdk: pip instsall openai

API Key

The script checks for API key in this order:

• 1.API key from https://aistudio.baidu.com/account/accessToken
• 2.ERNIE-Image_API_KEY environment variable
• 3.--api-key argument (use if user provided key in chat)

Usage

Run the script using absolute path (do NOT cd to skill directory first):

Generate new image:

bash

python ~/.codex/skills/ERNIE-Image/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "your image description" --filename "output-name.png" [--resolution 1024*1024|1366*768] [--api-key KEY]

Important: Always run from the user's current working directory so images are saved where the user is working, not in the skill directory.

Resolution Options

ERNIE-Image API supports three resolutions (uppercase K required):

• 1024x1024
• 1376x768
• 1264x848
• 1200x896
• 896x1200
• 848x1264
• 768x1376

Map user requests to API parameters:

• No mention of resolution → 1024x1024
• "low resolution", 1024x1024

If neither is available, the script exits with an error message.

Preflight + Common Failures (fast fixes)

• Preflight:

  • test -n \"$ERNIE-Image_API_KEY\" (or pass --api-key)
  • If editing: test -f \"path/to/input.png\"

• Common failures:

  • Error: No API key provided. → set ERNIE-Image_API_KEY or pass --api-key
  • “quota/permission/403” style API errors → wrong key, no access, or quota exceeded; try a different key/account

Filename Generation

Generate filenames with the pattern: yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss-name.png

Format: {timestamp}-{descriptive-name}.png

• Timestamp: Current date/time in format yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss (24-hour format)
• Name: Descriptive lowercase text with hyphens
• Keep the descriptive part concise (1-5 words typically)
• Use context from user's prompt or conversation
• If unclear, use random identifier (e.g., x9k2, a7b3)

Examples:

• Prompt "A serene Japanese garden" → 2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png
• Prompt "sunset over mountains" → 2025-11-23-15-30-12-sunset-mountains.png
• Prompt "create an image of a robot" → 2025-11-23-16-45-33-robot.png
• Unclear context → 2025-11-23-17-12-48-x9k2.png

Prompt Handling

For generation: Pass user's image description as-is to --prompt. Only rework if clearly insufficient.

Preserve user's creative intent in both cases.

Prompt Templates (high hit-rate)

Use templates when the user is vague or when edits must be precise.

• Generation template:
  • “Create an image of: . Style: . Composition: <camera/shot>. Lighting: <lighting>. Background: <background>. Color palette: <palette>. Avoid: <list>.”

Output

• Saves PNG to current directory (or specified path if filename includes directory)
• Script outputs the full path to the generated image
• Do not read the image back - just inform the user of the saved path

Examples

Generate new image:

bash

python ~/.codex/skills/ERNIE-Image/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "A serene Japanese garden with cherry blossoms" --filename "2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png" --resolution 1024*1024
