At a glance
Turns a supplied photo into a minimal zine-style poster with a clear artistic idea, empty space, saturated color and authored typography.
- Works in 3 steps: the generated raster image; → a concise Chinese explanation of the… → concise art-direction notes.
- Making an expressive poster from a personal photo
- SKILL.md covers Decision Priority, Consent and Source Handling, Build the Distillation Card and Expression Engine, plus 12 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
The skill turns a photo you supply into a minimal, paper-poster style artwork. The photo serves as evidence and inspiration only. The final image is drawn from scratch and must not embed, crop, trace or keep the original photograph, and the result is not meant to be a filter, style transfer or illustrated copy.
The agent first builds a distillation card from the photo: the smallest subject or relationship that carries the meaning, one core subject, a few supporting elements and the dominant gesture. It then states one artistic proposition and one emotional tension, and composes with generous empty space, high-chroma color and freely authored typography. Output keeps the photo's orientation, as 3:5 portrait or 5:3 landscape. A Chinese trigger phrase switches to a single saturated color field with everything else in neutral ink.
It returns the raster image, a short Chinese explanation of the idea and brief art-direction notes, and does not show the generation prompt. A photo plus a transform request counts as consent to use an image-generation service. Only the final prompt and the reference image are sent there, the source is not saved or shared, and the agent says so after generating.
When your agent uses it
- Making an expressive poster from a personal photo
- Reinterpreting a scene as an editorial or abstract artwork
- Producing a one-color-field poster with the single color block mode
Example prompts
- “Turn this photo of my grandmother's kitchen into a zine poster.”
- “Make a zine poster from ./photos/harbor.jpg in 单色块模式.”
- “Distill this street photo into a landscape poster about waiting.”
Requirements
- An image-generation tool available to the agent
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- the generated raster image;
- a concise Chinese explanation of the creative idea;
- concise art-direction notes.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b9edb83. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
zeejayzine.com
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
Scene Distillation Zine Poster loads about 7.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 254 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,765 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
