## What it does

The skill begins by asking for the project name, visual style, aspect ratio, color direction, and reference images. It waits for approval before generating. Image creation uses `nanobanana`, with 20 concepts as the default batch; files and an HTML preview go in `.skill-archive/logo-creator/`. Feedback can guide another round based on the options the user likes.

Scripts handle cropping, background removal, and SVG conversion for the approved design. Setup requires `nanobanana` plus `GEMINI_API_KEY`, `REMOVE_BG_API_KEY`, and `RECRAFT_API_KEY` in the environment. Without those keys, the specified generation and image-processing steps cannot run. The final asset can then be copied to the location the user chooses.

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ReScienceLab/opc-skills --skill logo-creator -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/logo-creator/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/ReScienceLab/opc-skills --path skills/logo-creator
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/logo-creator/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/ReScienceLab/opc-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/logo-creator/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- generate logo concepts for a brand
- compare designs in an HTML preview
- refine concepts from user feedback
- crop excess whitespace from a selected logo
- remove a background and convert artwork to SVG

## Example prompts
- Create a logo for my project; ask me about style, colors, and aspect ratio first.
- Generate logo options and prepare an HTML preview for them.
- Crop my chosen logo, remove its background, and export it as SVG.

# Logo Creator Skill

Create professional logos through AI image generation with an iterative design process.

## Prerequisites

**Required API Keys (set in environment):**
- `GEMINI_API_KEY` - Get from [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/apikey)
- `REMOVE_BG_API_KEY` - Get from [remove.bg](https://www.remove.bg/api)
- `RECRAFT_API_KEY` - Get from [recraft.ai](https://www.recraft.ai/)

**Required Skills:**
- `nanobanana` - AI image generation (Gemini 3 Pro Image)



## File Output Location

All generated files should be saved to the `.skill-archive` directory:

```
.skill-archive/logo-creator/<yyyy-mm-dd-summaryname>/
```

**Example:**
```
.skill-archive/logo-creator/2026-01-18-opc-logo/
  logo-01.png
  logo-02.png
  ...
  logo-09-cropped.png
  logo-09-nobg.png
  logo-09.svg
  preview.html
```

**Guidelines:**
- Use current date in format `yyyy-mm-dd`
- Add short summary name (project/brand name, kebab-case)
- Create directory before generating first logo
- Keep all variations and iterations in same folder
- Final approved logo should be copied to user's desired location

## Workflow

### Step 1: Discovery & Requirements

Before generating, gather requirements from user:

**Ask about:**
1. **Project/Brand name** - What is the logo for?
2. **Style preference** - See [references/styles.md](./references/styles.md) for options:
   - Pixel art / 8-bit retro
   - Minimalist / flat design
   - 3D / isometric
   - Hand-drawn / sketch
   - Mascot / character
   - Monogram / lettermark
   - Abstract / geometric

3. **Aspect ratio** - Default is 1:1 (square), options:
   - `1:1` - Square (favicons, app icons)
   - `16:9` - Wide (headers, banners)
   - `4:3` - Standard
   - `2:3` - Portrait

4. **Color preferences**:
   - Monochrome (black & white)
   - Specific brand colors
   - Let AI decide

5. **Reference images** - Any existing logos or styles to reference?

**Wait for user confirmation before proceeding!**

### Step 2: Generate Logo Variations

Generate 20 logo variations (default) using the `nanobanana` skill:

```bash
# Generate single logo
python3 <nanobanana_skill_dir>/scripts/generate.py "{style} logo for {brand}, {description}, {colors}" \
  --ratio 1:1 -o .skill-archive/logo-creator/<date-name>/logo-01.png

# Batch generate 20 logos
python3 <nanobanana_skill_dir>/scripts/batch_generate.py "{style} logo for {brand}, {description}, {colors}" \
  -n 20 --ratio 1:1 -d .skill-archive/logo-creator/<date-name> -p logo
```

**Guidelines:**
- Use batch_generate.py for multiple variations (includes auto-delay)
- Save to `.skill-archive/logo-creator/<yyyy-mm-dd-summaryname>/` directory
- Use sequential naming: `logo-01.png`, `logo-02.png`, etc.

**Prompt Tips:**
- Include style keywords: "pixel art", "minimalist", "8-bit", "flat design"
