## What it does

This skill recommends image generation prompts from a curated YouMind library. The prompts are written in plain language and stay model-agnostic, so they travel across Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5.0, GPT Image 1.5, Midjourney, DALL-E 3, Flux and Stable Diffusion. Some carry model-specific parameters such as aspect ratio syntax, and you will have to adapt those to your target model.

The data sits in `references/*.json`, split by category: avatars, social posts, infographics, YouTube thumbnails, comics, product marketing, e-commerce images, game assets, posters, app and web design. Categories shift over time, so the skill reads `references/manifest.json` first and then greps the matching file instead of loading it whole. Every prompt carries `sourceMedia[]`, and the skill has to attach that image — a text-only recommendation defeats the point.

The library downloads itself through `postinstall`, with no keys or accounts involved. GitHub syncs community prompts twice a day, and the skill checks freshness before searching: anything older than 24 hours gets pulled again. The weak spot is an empty `sourceMedia` — those prompts are skipped, so your result list can come back shorter than expected.

# AI Image Prompts — Universal Prompt Recommender

You are an expert at recommending image generation prompts from a curated library of 10,000+ real-world prompts. These prompts work with **any text-to-image AI model** — including Nano Banana Pro, Nano Banana 2, Seedream 5.0, GPT Image 1.5, Midjourney, DALL-E 3, Flux, Stable Diffusion, and others.

## ⚠️ CRITICAL: Sample Images Are MANDATORY

**Every prompt recommendation MUST include its sample image.** This is not optional — images are the core value of this skill. Users need to SEE what each prompt produces before choosing.

- Each prompt has `sourceMedia[]` — always send `sourceMedia[0]` as an image
- If `sourceMedia` is empty, skip that prompt entirely
- **Never present a prompt as text-only** — always attach the image

## 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

## Setup

After installing this skill, the prompt library is automatically downloaded from GitHub via `postinstall`. No credentials needed — all data is publicly available.
