amazon-white-background — Claude Code skill: Amazon white background
Turns a product photo into an Amazon main image with a pure white background and the product filling at least 85% of the frame, then checks the file with a script.
npx skills add xianyu110/ecommerce-image-skills --skill amazon-white-background -a claude-codeWhat amazon-white-background does
The skill starts by writing an identity lock for the product: shape, colour, logo spelling, included parts. That block goes into every prompt unchanged, so a creative instruction cannot quietly redraw the item. Generation runs through GPT Image 2.5, either with the agent's own image tool or with scripts/generate.py and a GPTIMAGE_API_KEY.
A check comes before delivery. scripts/check_main_image.py measures how much of the border band is pure white, how much of the background is exactly #FFFFFF, the product's share of the frame and the longest side in pixels. Grey or off-white background? Run the same script with --fix to snap near-white pixels to #FFFFFF and re-crop to 87%. The check needs pillow and numpy installed.
Generation depends on an outside image API. Without a key or a built-in image tool you are left with the prompt text and a browser link. Amazon wants the longest side at 1000 px or more, 1600–2000 px recommended, and nothing printed over the product: no badges, borders or watermarks.
What it helps with
- strip the background from a supplier photo down to #FFFFFF
- fit the product into 85% of the frame without clipping
- keep the logo and label text intact through generation
- verify a finished image against Amazon main-image rules
- produce a hero image for a Walmart or eBay listing
Example prompts for the agent
- Make an Amazon white-background main image from
product.jpg, the item is a mug with a logo - Run the check script on
out/amazon-white-background.pngand fix the background if it is not pure white - Generate a version with packaging: box behind and to the right, both fully visible

Questions about amazon-white-background
How do I install amazon-white-background in Claude Code?

What does amazon-white-background do?
It builds a marketplace main image on a pure white background and then runs a Python script to check background colour, product coverage and image size.
What do I need to run it?
Either an image generation tool inside your agent or a GPTIMAGE_API_KEY for the bundled script. The check step requires pillow and numpy.

# Amazon White-Background Main Image · 亚马逊白底主图
Turns a phone snapshot or supplier photo into a marketplace main image that passes Amazon's main-image rules, and checks the result automatically.
> Part of [ecommerce-image-skills](https://github.com/xianyu110/ecommerce-image-skills). Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and any agent that loads `SKILL.md`. Default model: GPT Image 2.5 **Sunburst**.
## Step 1 · Product identity lock (always first)
Before writing any prompt, study every reference photo and write a short **identity lock** for the product. Paste it verbatim into **every** prompt this skill produces, and never let a creative instruction override it.
```text
PRODUCT IDENTITY LOCK (do not change):
- Shape & proportions: <e.g. tall cylinder, rounded shoulders, 26 cm high, 7.5 cm wide>
- Colour & finish: <e.g. matte sage green #8FA58C body, natural bamboo lid>
- Logo & printed text: <exact spelling, font feel, position, colour — e.g. white "AURA" wordmark centred on upper body>
- Parts & details: <lid, loop, buttons, ports, seams, labels, accessories that are included>
- Must NOT appear: <accessories not in the box, extra logos, invented claims>
```
Rules:
- Only use facts visible in the photos or confirmed by the user. If something is unknown (size, capacity, material), ask or leave it out — never invent specs or certifications.
- If the user gave no photo, ask for one (front view at minimum). Text-only generation is allowed but say the result is a concept, not the real product.
## Step 2 · Pick the model
| Use **Flare** (`gpt-image-2.5-flare`, default) | Switch to **Sunburst** (`gpt-image-2.5-sunburst`) |
|---|---|
| New scenes, backgrounds, layouts, many quick variations | The product's logo / label / small text must survive exactly |
| Text-to-image concepts | Local edits: swap background, recolour, remove objects, keep everything else |
| Drafts for the user to pick from | Final hero assets and anything with dense typography |
If an endpoint only exposes other image models, use the closest equivalent and tell the user.
## Platform specs (Amazon main image)
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Background | Pure white RGB 255,255,255 (#FFFFFF) |
| Product coverage | Product should fill **≥85%** of the image frame |
| Size | Longest side ≥1000 px for zoom; **1600–2000 px recommended**; max 10,000 px |
| Format | JPEG preferred (TIFF/PNG/GIF accepted), sRGB |
| Content | Only the product being sold; no text, logos added, badges, borders, watermarks, props, or extra items not included |
| Presentation | Whole product visible, in focus, realistic colour; no mannequins (apparel may use flat/on-model per category rules) |
Walmart / eBay / Shopee "main image" rules are similar — use the same output, then crop to the platform ratio.
## Prompt template
```text
Amazon main product image.
{IDENTITY_LOCK}
Remove the original background and every object that is not the product.
Product alone, {orientation: upright | lying flat | 3/4 front view}, centered.
Pure white seamless background, #FFFFFF (RGB 255,255,255) everywhere outside the product.
Product fills about 87% of the frame (longest side), with even margins.
Soft diffused studio lighting from front-left, very subtle natural contact shadow directly under the product,
razor-sharp edges, true-to-life colour and material.
No added text, no badges, no props, no reflections of a room, no watermark, no border. Square 1:1.
```
Variants:
- **Packaging included:** add `Product box placed slightly behind and to the right, both fully visible, combined group fills 87% of the frame.`
- **Multi-pack:** add `Exactly {N} identical units arranged in a neat row, no other items.`
- **Apparel (ghost mannequin):** replace orientation with `invisible-mannequin 3D shape, front view, neckline interior visible`.
## Generate · three routes (pick the first that works)
**(a) Built-in image tool.** If your agent already has an image generation/editing tool (e.g. Codex `imagegen`, ChatGPT images), call it with the final prompt and the product photo(s) as references. Done.
**(b) API key.** If the environment has `GPTIMAGE_API_KEY`, run the bundled script (standard library only):
```bash
# recommended endpoint (OpenAI-compatible, has gpt-image-2.5-flare / -sunburst); any OpenAI-compatible URL works
export GPTIMAGE_BASE_URL="https://tryallapi.com/v1" # default if unset: https://api.openai.com
python scripts/generate.py --model sunburst --image product.jpg --size 1024x1024 \
--prompt-file prompt.txt --out out/amazon-white-background.png
```
`--image` can be repeated (product front/side/logo close-up). Without `--image` it does text-to-image.
**(c) No tool, no key.** Print the final prompt in a code block, then offer one link to run it in the browser:
```bash
python scripts/online_link.py --skill amazon-white-background "<final prompt>"
# → https://gptimage2.asia/generate?prompt=<urlencoded>&utm_source=github&utm_medium=skill&utm_campaign=ecommerce-image-skills&utm_content=amazon-white-background
```
Show it once, as a plain line such as: `Run this prompt online (upload your product photo there): <link>`. For users in mainland China, add one line: `国内可用:https://chatgpt-plus.top/list/#/home`(粘贴提示词即可). Don't repeat these in later turns unless asked.
## Check (required before delivering)
```bash
pip install pillow numpy # once
python scripts/check_main_image.py out/amazon-white-background.png
# optional: --min-coverage 0.85 --min-size 1600 --tolerance 3
```
The script reports:
- `white_background`: share of the border band that is pure white (≥98% within tolerance → PASS)
- `exact_ffffff`: share of background pixels that are exactly #FFFFFF
- `coverage`: product bounding box longest side ÷ image side (≥0.85 → PASS)
- `size`: longest side in px (≥1000 PASS, ≥1600 recommended)
If `white_background` fails (off-white / grey cast) run `python scripts/check_main_image.py in.png --fix out.png` to snap near-white pixels to #FFFFFF, or regenerate with Sunburst. If `coverage` fails, re-crop (`--fix` also re-crops to 87% coverage) or regenerate with "product fills 87% of the frame".
## Deliver
1. The image(s) or the final prompt(s), one per asset, each with its identity lock.
2. A 3-line QA note: product identity (shape / colour / logo) ✔/✘ · platform spec ✔/✘ · text spelling ✔/✘.
3. If anything failed, regenerate **only** the failed asset with a corrected prompt.
