baoyu-gemini-web Image generation skill using Gemini Web. Generates images from text prompts via Google Gemini. Also supports text generation. Use as the image generation backend for other skills like cover-image, xhs-images, article-illustrator.

Gemini Web Client

Supports:

  • Text generation
  • Image generation (download + save)
  • Reference image upload (attach images for vision tasks)
  • Multi-turn conversations within the same executor instance (keepSession)
  • Experimental video generation (generateVideo) — Gemini may return an async placeholder; download might require Gemini web UI

Quick start

npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello, Gemini"
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "Explain quantum computing"
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cute cat" --image cat.png
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image out.png

Executor options (programmatic)

This skill is typically consumed via createGeminiWebExecutor(geminiOptions) (see scripts/executor.ts).

Key options in GeminiWebOptions:

  • referenceImages?: string | string[] Upload local images as references (vision input).
  • keepSession?: boolean Reuse Gemini chatMetadata to continue the same conversation across calls (required if you want reference images to persist across multiple messages).
  • generateVideo?: string Generate a video and (best-effort) download to the given path. Gemini may return video_gen_chip (async); in that case you must open Gemini web UI to download the result.

Notes:

  • generateVideo cannot be combined with generateImage / editImage.
  • When keepSession=true and referenceImages is set, reference images are uploaded once per executor instance.

Commands

Text generation

# Simple prompt (positional)
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Your prompt here"

# Explicit prompt flag
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "Your prompt here"
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts -p "Your prompt here"

# With model selection
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts -p "Hello" -m gemini-2.5-pro

# Pipe from stdin
echo "Summarize this" | npx -y bun scripts/main.ts

Image generation

# Generate image with default path (./generated.png)
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A sunset over mountains" --image

# Generate image with custom path
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cute robot" --image robot.png

# Shorthand
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "A dragon" --image=dragon.png

Output formats

# Plain text (default)
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello"

# JSON output
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello" --json

Options

Option Short Description
--prompt <text> -p Prompt text
--promptfiles <files...> Read prompt from files (concatenated in order)
--model <id> -m Model: gemini-3-pro (default), gemini-2.5-pro, gemini-2.5-flash
--image [path] Generate image, save to path (default: generated.png)
--json Output as JSON
--login Refresh cookies only, then exit
--cookie-path <path> Custom cookie file path
--profile-dir <path> Chrome profile directory
--help -h Show help

CLI note: scripts/main.ts currently supports text + image generation. Reference images / multi-turn / video generation are exposed via the executor options above.

Models

  • gemini-3-pro - Default, latest model
  • gemini-2.5-pro - Previous generation pro
  • gemini-2.5-flash - Fast, lightweight

Authentication

First run opens Chrome to authenticate with Google. Cookies are cached for subsequent runs.

# Force cookie refresh
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --login

Environment variables

Variable Description
GEMINI_WEB_DATA_DIR Data directory
GEMINI_WEB_COOKIE_PATH Cookie file path
GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PROFILE_DIR Chrome profile directory
GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PATH Chrome executable path

Examples

Generate text response

npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "What is the capital of France?"

Generate image

npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "A photorealistic image of a golden retriever puppy" --image puppy.png

Get JSON output for parsing

npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello" --json | jq '.text'

Generate image from prompt files

# Concatenate system.md + content.md as prompt
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image output.png
