Journey fit
Spans multiple journey phases - primary shelf plus alternate fits below.
Canonical shelf is Launch because the skill maps SEO and social preview assets (OG, schema, favicon, Pinterest) that matter when pages are meant to rank and get clicked from search and shares. Subphase seo matches the skill’s explicit SEO asset types, Gemini SEO-oriented modes, and triggers like OG image, schema image, and hero image for publishable URLs.

Generate a hero and OG pair for a waitlist landing page before you run traffic tests.
Produce schema and favicon-sized assets plus a Pinterest pin for a new product URL going live.

# SEO Image Gen: AI Image Generation for SEO Assets (Extension) Generate production-ready images for SEO use cases using Gemini's image generation via the banana Creative Director pipeline. Maps SEO needs to optimized domain modes, aspect ratios, and resolution defaults. ## Architecture Note This extension is built on [Claude Banana](https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/banana-claude), the standalone AI image generation skill for Claude Code. This skill has two components with distinct roles: - **SKILL.md** (this file): Handles interactive `/seo image-gen` commands for generating images - **Agent** (`agents/seo-image-gen.md`): Audit-only analyst spawned during `/seo audit` to assess existing OG/social images and produce a generation plan (never auto-generates) ## Prerequisites This skill requires the banana extension to be installed: ```bash ./extensions/banana/install.sh ``` **Check availability:** Before using any image generation tool, verify the MCP server is connected by checking if `gemini_generate_image` or `set_aspect_ratio` tools are available. If tools are not available, inform the user the extension is not installed and provide install instructions. ## Quick Reference | Command | What it does | |---------|-------------| | `/seo image-gen og <description>` | Generate OG/social preview image (1200x630 feel) | | `/seo image-gen hero <description>` | Blog hero image (widescreen, dramatic) | | `/seo image-gen product <description>` | Product photography (clean, white BG) | | `/seo image-gen infographic <description>` | Infographic visual (vertical, data-heavy) | | `/seo image-gen custom <description>` | Custom image with full Creative Director pipeline | | `/seo image-gen batch <description> [N]` | Generate N variations (default: 3) | ## SEO Image Use Cases Each use case maps to pre-configured banana parameters: | Use Case | Aspect Ratio | Resolution | Domain Mode | Notes | |----------|-------------|------------|-------------|-------| | **OG/Social Preview** | `16:9` | `1K` | Product or UI/Web | Clean, professional, text-friendly | | **Blog Hero** | `16:9` | `2K` | Cinema or Editorial | Dramatic, atmospheric, editorial quality | | **Schema Image** | `4:3` | `1K` | Product | Clean, descriptive, schema ImageObject | | **Social Square** | `1:1` | `1K` | UI/Web | Platform-optimized square | | **Product Photo** | `4:3` | `2K` | Product | White background, studio lighting | | **Infographic** | `2:3` | `4K` | Infographic | Data-heavy, vertical layout | | **Favicon/Icon** | `1:1` | `512` | Logo | Minimal, scalable, recognizable | | **Pinterest Pin** | `2:3` | `2K` | Editorial | Tall vertical card | ## Generation Pipeline For every generation request: 1. **Identify use case** from command or context (og, hero, product, etc.) 2. **Apply SEO defaults** from the use cases table above 3. **Set aspect ratio** via `set_aspect_ratio` MCP tool 4. **Construct Reasoning Brief** using the banana Creative Director pipeline: - Load `references/prompt-engineering.md` for the 6-component system - Apply domain mode emphasis (Subject 30%, Style 25%, Context 15%, etc.) - Be SPECIFIC and VISCERAL: describe what the camera sees 5. **Generate** via `gemini_generate_image` MCP tool 6
