Replace the long inline `scripts/codex-imagegen.sh` invocation block in
SKILL.md with a pointer to references/codex-imagegen.md. The reference
documents the preferred `baoyu-image-gen --provider codex-cli` path and
keeps the direct-wrapper fallback for runtimes without baoyu-image-gen.
BREAKING CHANGE: removed `baoyu-imagine` and `baoyu-image-cards`. All
functionality now lives under `baoyu-image-gen` and `baoyu-xhs-images`
respectively. Cross-skill `## Image Generation Tools` examples updated
across baoyu-article-illustrator, baoyu-comic, baoyu-cover-image,
baoyu-infographic, and baoyu-slide-deck.
Migration: existing `~/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-imagine/EXTEND.md` configs are
auto-renamed to `…/baoyu-image-gen/EXTEND.md` on first run via the
legacy-path resolver in `scripts/main.ts`.
Replaces the stateless ask-once backend rule with a 4-step resolution
(current-request override > saved preference > auto-select > ask) and
adds a single `preferred_image_backend` field (auto | ask | <backend-id>)
to every image-consuming skill's EXTEND.md schema. Runtime-native tools
(Codex `imagegen`, Hermes `image_generate`, ...) win by default; absent
field equals `auto` so existing user EXTEND.md files stay valid with no
schema version bump.
Each image-consuming skill also gains a top-level `## Changing
Preferences` section as a first-class surface for pinning a backend and
editing common one-line preferences.
Applies across:
- baoyu-infographic (reverts in-progress two-field image_backend_mode design)
- baoyu-comic
- baoyu-cover-image
- baoyu-image-cards
- baoyu-article-illustrator
- baoyu-slide-deck
- baoyu-xhs-images
- docs/image-generation-tools.md (canonical author-side doc)
