## What it does

This skill processes pre-defined briefs for characters and product concepts. It skips prompt brainstorming, focusing entirely on validating parameters and sending jobs to cloud endpoints through `postplus media create`. Internal requests and manifests remain under the `.postplus` directory, while final image assets land in the active workspace folder.

Executions run asynchronously, which means rendered files must be retrieved manually via `postplus media-file download`. When managing batches, the runner fires an initial canary item first. A content policy block on that item gets logged and skipped, while connection errors or authentication failures immediately halt the entire queue. Without the `postplus` CLI installed and authenticated, jobs cannot execute.

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add PostPlusAI/postplus-skills --skill image-batch-runner -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/PostPlusAI/postplus-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/40-creative/image-batch-runner/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- execute prepared image briefs across hosted generation endpoints
- apply reference-guided edits to existing local files or URLs
- record execution manifests and artifact metadata for QA
- isolate safety-filtered items during batch execution without stopping the run

## Example prompts
- Execute the image briefs from `.postplus/brief.json` using the default endpoint
- Edit the product shot with `input.png` as reference using `image-gpt-image-2-edit`
- Run diagnostics with doctor before dispatching the batch run
