Packaging Design Generation

Generate professional product packaging designs using each::sense AI. Create box designs, food packaging, cosmetic containers, beverage labels, supplement bo...

Security Scan

The skill's behavior generally matches a packaging-design generator that calls an external each::sense API, but there are inconsistencies (undeclared API key) and trust gaps (no homepage, unknown source) that warrant caution before installing.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description (packaging design generation) align with the SKILL.md examples that call an external each::sense image-generation endpoint. That capability is coherent with the stated purpose. However, the skill's registry metadata lists no required environment variables despite the SKILL.md showing curl examples that require an EACHLABS_API_KEY, which is an inconsistency.

Instruction Scope

Runtime instructions explicitly send user prompts (and potentially any uploaded content) to https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat and expect streaming SSE responses. Sending user data to a third-party API is expected for a hosted generation service, but the SKILL.md does not limit or warn about what user data is sent, does not declare the required API key in metadata, and the referenced SSE events include 'thinking_delta' (streamed internal reasoning) which may expose internal model outputs. The instructions do not reference reading local files or unrelated system state, so scope creep is limited, but external data transmission + missing declarations is concerning.

Install Mechanism

This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files, so it does not write or execute files on disk during installation. That minimizes installation risk.

Credentials

The SKILL.md examples require an EACHLABS_API_KEY header, yet the registry metadata lists no required env vars or primary credential. That mismatch is a proportionality/accuracy issue: the skill will not function without a third-party API key and will transmit prompts to an external service. No other credentials are requested, but the missing declaration and lack of a homepage/trust anchor increases risk because you cannot verify what the key gives access to or review the service's privacy/security terms.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill does not request persistent or privileged presence (always is false), does not modify other skill configurations, and does not include installation scripts. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default (normal) but is not combined here with other high-risk flags.

What to consider before installing

This skill appears to be a thin wrapper around a third-party each::sense API. Before installing: (1) Verify the external service and publisher — ask for a homepage or documentation link and review the service's privacy/terms so you know how prompts and uploaded assets are used. (2) Treat the EACHLABS_API_KEY as a real credential — do not give it broad permissions; prefer a scoped/revocable key. (3) Do not send sensitive or proprietary content through the skill unless you confirm the provider's data retention and usage policies. (4) Ask the publisher to update metadata to declare required environment variables (EACHLABS_API_KEY) and to provide a homepage so the integration can be audited. If you cannot verify the service or the publisher, avoid installing or use a disposable/restricted API key.

Best Practices

Design Elements

• Brand Consistency: Maintain logo placement, color palette, and typography across packaging
• Hierarchy: Establish clear visual hierarchy with brand name, product name, and key information
• Whitespace: Use negative space effectively for premium feel
• Materials: Consider how design translates to different materials (matte, gloss, kraft, metallic)

Technical Considerations

• Bleed Areas: Account for printing bleed in design requests
• Die-Cut Windows: Specify if product should be visible through packaging
• Structural Design: Describe box/container shape and dimensions
• Print Finishes: Mention desired finishes (foil stamping, embossing, spot UV)

Industry Standards

• Food Packaging: Include space for nutrition facts, ingredients, allergens
• Cosmetics: Plan for ingredients list, usage instructions, warnings
• Beverages: Account for bottle shape and label wrap-around
• Supplements: Include supplement facts panel and FDA disclaimer space

Prompt Tips for Packaging Design

When creating packaging designs, include these details in your prompt:

1. Product Type: What is being packaged (food, cosmetic, tech, etc.)
2. Brand Name: The brand identity to feature
3. Product Name: Specific product or variant name
4. Design Style: Minimalist, luxurious, playful, vintage, modern, etc.
5. Color Palette: Specific colors or mood (earthy, vibrant, monochromatic)
6. Materials: Kraft paper, glass, matte cardboard, metallic accents
7. View Angle: Front view, 3/4 angle, flat lay, mockup style
8. Special Elements: Windows, foil stamping, embossing, ribbons

Example Prompt Structure

"Create a [style] packaging design for [product type].
[Material/container type] with [color palette] colors.
Brand: [name]. Product: [name].
[Special features like windows, finishes, or structural details].
[View angle and presentation style]."
