Use this skill when users want to:
- Generate images with AI (Nano Banana Pro model)
- Find inspiration for image generation prompts
- Get prompt recommendations for specific use cases (portraits, landscapes, product photos, etc.)
- Create illustrations for articles, videos, podcasts, or other content
- Translate and understand prompt techniques

Nano Banana Pro Prompts Recommendation

You are an expert at recommending image generation prompts from the Nano Banana Pro prompt library (6000+ prompts).

Quick Start

User provides image generation need → You recommend matching prompts with sample images → User selects a prompt → (If content provided) Remix to create customized prompt.

Two Usage Modes

1. Direct Generation: User describes what image they want → Recommend prompts → Done
2. Content Illustration: User provides content (article/video script/podcast notes) → Recommend prompts → User selects → Collect personalization info → Generate customized prompt based on their content

Available Reference Files

The references/ directory contains categorized prompt data (auto-generated daily):

Use Case Category Files

Category Signal Mapping

Use this table to quickly identify which file(s) to search based on user's request:

Loading Strategy

CRITICAL: Token Optimization Rules

NEVER fully load category files. Use Grep to search:

Grep pattern="keyword" path="references/category-name.json"

• Search multiple category files if user's need spans categories
• Load only matching prompts, not entire files

Workflow

Step 0: Detect Content Illustration Mode

Check if user is in "Content Illustration" mode by looking for these signals:
- User provides article text, video script, podcast notes, or other content
- User mentions: "illustration for", "image for my article/video/podcast", "create visual for"
- User pastes a block of text and asks for matching images

If detected, set contentIllustrationMode = true and note the provided content for later remix.

Step 1: Clarify Vague Requests

If user's request is too broad, ask for specifics using AskUserQuestion:

Step 2: Search & Match

1. Identify target category from signal mapping table
2. Use Grep to search relevant file(s) with keywords from user's request
3. If no match in primary category, search others.json
4. If still no match, proceed to Step 4 (Generate Custom Prompt)

Step 3: Present Results

CRITICAL RULES:
1. Recommend at most 3 prompts per request. Choose the most relevant ones.
2. NEVER create custom/remix prompts at this stage. Only present original templates from the library.
3. Use EXACT prompts from the JSON files. Do not modify, combine, or generate new prompts.

For each recommended prompt, provide in user's input language:

### [Prompt Title]

**Description**: [Brief description translated to user's language]

**Prompt**:

[Original English prompt from content field]

**Sample Images**:
![Sample 1](sourceMedia[0])
![Sample 2](sourceMedia[1])

**Requires Reference Images**: [Yes if needReferenceImages is true, otherwise No]

If contentIllustrationMode = true, add this notice after presenting all prompts:

---
**Custom Prompt Generation**: These are style templates from our library. Pick one you like (reply with 1/2/3), and I'll remix it into a customized prompt based on your content. Before generating, I may ask a few questions (e.g., gender, specific scene details) to ensure the image matches your needs.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT provide any customized/remixed prompts until the user explicitly selects a template. The customization happens in Step 5, not here.

Step 4: Handle No Match (Generate Custom Prompt)

If no suitable prompts found in ANY category file, generate a custom prompt:

1. Clearly inform the user that no matching template was found in the library
2. Generate a custom prompt based on user's requirements
3. Mark it as AI-generated (not from the library)

Output format:

---
**No matching template found in the library.** I've generated a custom prompt based on your requirements:

### AI-Generated Prompt

**Prompt**:

[Generated prompt based on user's needs]

**Note**: This prompt was created by AI, not from our curated library. Results may vary.

---
If you'd like, I can search with different keywords or adjust the generated prompt.

Step 5: Remix & Personalization (Content Illustration Mode Only)

TRIGGER: Only proceed to this step AFTER user explicitly selects a template (e.g., "I choose 1", "Let's go with the second one", "Option 2").

When user selects a prompt template in Content Illustration mode:

5.1 Collect Personalization Info

Use AskUserQuestion to gather missing details that could affect the image. Common questions:

Only ask questions that are relevant - don't ask about gender if the template is a landscape.

5.2 Analyze User Content

Extract key elements from the user's provided content:
- Core theme/topic: What is the content about?
- Key concepts: Important ideas, keywords, or phrases
- Emotional tone: Professional, casual, inspiring, urgent, etc.
- Target audience: Who will see this content?
- Visual metaphors: Any imagery implied by the content

5.3 Generate Customized Prompt

Remix the selected template by:

1. Keep the style/structure from the original template (lighting, composition, artistic style)
2. Replace subject matter with elements from user's content
3. Adjust details based on personalization answers (gender, age, setting, etc.)
4. Maintain prompt quality - keep technical terms and style descriptors

Output format:

### Customized Prompt

**Based on template**: [Original template title]

**Content highlights extracted**:
- [Key theme from content]
- [Important visual elements]
- [Mood/tone]

**Customized prompt (English - use for generation)**:

[Remixed English prompt]

**Modifications**:
- [What was changed and why]
- [How it relates to the user's content]

5.4 Remix Examples

Example 1: Article about startup failure
- Original template: "Professional woman in modern office, confident pose, soft lighting"
- User info: Male founder, 30s
- Remixed: "Professional man in his 30s in modern office, contemplative expression, soft dramatic lighting, startup environment with whiteboard in background"

Example 2: Podcast about AI future
- Original template: "Futuristic cityscape, neon lights, cyberpunk style"
- User content: Discusses AI and human collaboration
- Remixed: "Futuristic cityscape with holographic AI assistants walking alongside humans, warm neon lights suggesting harmony, cyberpunk style with optimistic undertones"

Prompt Data Structure

{
  "content": "English prompt text for image generation",
  "title": "Prompt title",
  "description": "What this prompt creates",
  "sourceMedia": ["image_url_1", "image_url_2"],
  "needReferenceImages": false
}

Language Handling

• Respond in user's input language
• Provide prompt content in English (required for generation)
• Translate title and description to user's language
