What background-removal does

The skill connects your coding assistant to the each::sense API model eachsense/beta. It isolates subjects onto transparent PNG files with full alpha channels, swaps backdrops for plain solid colors such as #FFFFFF, or inserts models into fresh scenery. Edge processing keeps fine strands of hair on portraits and preserves soft outlines around animal fur without creating halos.

Every API call will fail unless you supply a valid token in the EACHLABS_API_KEY environment variable. The skill sends POST requests directly to https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions. When processing image collections in batches, it accepts a session_id alongside runtime parameters like max and eco.

What it helps with

  • Cut out product photos with alpha transparency and preserved shadows
  • Replace busy backdrops with plain solid colors like #FFFFFF
  • Retain delicate hair edges and stray strands in headshots
  • Place a photographed subject into a custom background scene
  • Run batch cutouts across image groups using session IDs

Example prompts for the agent

  • Strip the background from this product shot, preserve the soft shadows, and export a transparent PNG.
  • Change the backdrop behind the person to plain white #FFFFFF while keeping individual hair strands clean.
  • Isolate the pet from this image into a cutout, making sure the fur outlines stay detailed.
