<p>I built a Claude Code skill that generates images from the terminal and also via Claude Desktop MacOS app and Cowork. One command, any AI model, with transparent backgrounds, reference image editing, prompt engineering patterns, and composite banner generation built in.<p>The skill supports five AI image models through OpenRouter’s API, all proxied through Cloudflare AI Gateway for monitoring and cost control:<p>Gemini 3.1 Flash Image Preview (Google Nano Banana 2)
FLUX.2 Max
Riverflow v2 Pro
Seedream 4.5
GPT-5 Image</p>

<p>I tested Grok 4 Fast, and it does a bit better than Sonoma Alpha models, but nowhere near Grok Code Fast 1, Claude, etc, for code analysis at least.

<p>Used <a href="https://gemini.google.com" rel="nofollow">https://gemini.google.com</a> Gemini 2.5 Pro canvas mode for Gemini Advanced subscription account to ask it to build Atari missile command game in HTML5. Tweeted about it at <a href="https://x.com/George_SLiu/status/1906236287931318747" rel="nofollow">https://x.com/George_SLiu/status/1906236287931318747</a> almost one shotted but after I passed level 1, it jumped to level 182 and pulverised my cities and bases LOL</p>

<p>deferent models handle JSON slightly differently, Gemini handles it better other models as does OpenAI GPT4/o1/o3 but they cost a lot more so I don't use them for AI gameplay analysis</p>
