What it does
Image Compose is an agent skill from Utopai-Research/pai-code. Generates/edits filmmaking canvas images via generateimage.js and generateimagepro.js. Use before image CLIs for character/location design, refs, starting frames, storyboards, stills, edits, variations, and downstream video anchors. Video-bound characters default to Pattern 7 4-panel sheets; one-off static portraits use Pattern 1. Story/script breakdowns should create detailed location anchors plus material character/location variants. Storyboards use Pattern 6: one pro composite mosaic per clip/<=15s shot note.
Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/character-sheet.md` and `references/storyboard-mosaic.md`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Comics and storyboards and Image generation. The repository describes itself as: Local AI filmmaking studio — skills, canvas, timeline — driven from your coding agent.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Comics and storyboards
- Tasks that involve Image generation
Example prompts
- “/image-compose”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Character portrait (one-off static stills only)
- Location establishing still
- Edit / variation / turnaround of an existing image
- Scene featuring existing characters
- Standalone still
- Storyboard mosaic — one composite per clip / shot note
- Character reference sheet (default for ANY video-bound character work — with or without actor refs)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 825bca2. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
node
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 Compose loads about 3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 134 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,325 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,325 words (~3,004 tokens).

Can I use Image Compose in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Utopai-Research/pai-code --skill image-compose -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/image-compose, .gemini/skills/image-compose, .github/skills/image-compose and .opencode/skills/image-compose in your project.
What does Image Compose need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Image Compose needs the command-line tools its instructions call (node).
Does Image Compose access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

How many tokens does Image Compose use?
About 3k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 12k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 4.3k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
