 `preferred_image_backend: auto` is the baked-in default — first-time setup does not ask about it. The `## Image Generation Tools` rule in SKILL.md then picks the runtime-native tool (Codex `imagegen`, Hermes `image_generate`, etc.) when available, and falls back to installed backends.
 
+`generation_batch_size: 4` is the baked-in default for batch rendering. The current user request may override it for one run.
