What it does
Image Generation is an agent skill from SawyerHood/middleman. Generate images using Google Gemini (gemini-3-pro-image-preview). Requires GEMINIAPIKEY.
Its SKILL.md is about 350 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `generate.d.ts` and `generate.js`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Image generation and LLM API integration. It works with Google Gemini. The repository describes itself as: The middle manager for your agents. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Image generation
- Tasks that involve LLM API integration
Example prompts
- “/image-generation”
Requirements
- Node.js
- A credential in GEMINI_API_KEY
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 27b9602. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships script files (TypeScript and JavaScript), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Image Generation loads about 346 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 86 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

--input-image "/path/to/reference.jpg" \
--output "/path/to/output.png"Options
--prompt(required): text description of the image to generate--output(required): output file path (extension auto-detected when omitted)--input-image(optional, repeatable): local source image(s) to send alongside the prompt--aspect-ratio(optional): aspect ratio like16:9,1:1,4:3--size(optional): image size, default1K
Output
The script prints JSON:
- Success:
{ "ok": true, "file": "/path/to/output.png", "mimeType": "image/png" } - Failure:
