Nano Banana Pro (Morfeo)

---

name: nano-banana-pro description: Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.

Endpoints & Authentication

Google AI Studio (Public Preview):

POST https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-3-pro-image-preview:generateContent?key=${API_KEY}

Vertex AI (Enterprise):

POST https://${REGION}-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1/projects/${PROJECT_ID}/locations/${REGION}/publishers/google/models/gemini-3-pro-image-preview:predict

Model IDs

API: gemini-3-pro-image-preview

SDK interno: nanobanana-pro-001

Parameters

| Parameter | Values | Description | |-----------|--------|-------------| | aspect_ratio | 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16 | Output aspect ratio | | output_mime_type | image/png, image/jpeg | Output format | | reference_images | Array (max 14) | Reference images for consistency | | reference_type | CHARACTER, STYLE, SUBJECT | How to use reference | | person_generation | ALLOW_ADULT, DONT_ALLOW, FILTER_SENSITIVE | Person generation policy | | image_size | 1K, 2K, 4K | Output resolution |

Reference Types

STYLE: Transfer visual style, color palette, mood from reference

CHARACTER: Maintain facial features, traits consistency across images

SUBJECT: Keep the subject/product consistent (use for product photography!)

Advanced Capabilities

Text Rendering: Native text rendering without spelling errors

In-context Editing: Send existing image + modification prompt (automatic in-painting)

High Resolution: Native upscale to 4K via upscale: true

Usage

Run the script using absolute path (do NOT cd to skill directory first):

Generate new image:

uv run ~/.clawdbot/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py \
  --prompt "your image description" \
  --filename "output-name.png" \
  [--resolution 1K|2K|4K] \
  [--api-key KEY]

Edit existing image:

uv run ~/.clawdbot/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py \
  --prompt "editing instructions" \
  --filename "output-name.png" \
  --input-image "path/to/input.png" \
  [--resolution 1K|2K|4K]

With reference image (product/style/character consistency):

uv run ~/.clawdbot/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py \
  --prompt "your description" \
  --filename "output-name.png" \
  --reference-image "path/to/reference.jpg" \
  --reference-type SUBJECT|STYLE|CHARACTER \
  [--resolution 1K|2K|4K]

Important: Always run from the user's current working directory so images are saved where the user is working, not in the skill directory.

Resolution Options

1K (default) - ~1024px resolution

2K - ~2048px resolution (recommended for most uses)

4K - ~4096px resolution (high quality)

Map user requests:

No mention → 1K

"low resolution", "1080", "1080p", "1K" → 1K

"2K", "2048", "normal", "medium resolution" → 2K

"high resolution", "high-res", "hi-res", "4K", "ultra" → 4K

API Key

The script checks for API key in this order: 1. --api-key argument 2. GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable

Filename Generation

Format: {timestamp}-{descriptive-name}.png

Timestamp: yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss (24-hour format)

Name: Descriptive lowercase with hyphens

Examples:

2025-11-23-14-23-05-japanese-garden.png

2025-11-23-15-30-12-sunset-mountains.png

Prompt Engineering Framework

You are an expert Prompt Engineer specializing in Nano Banana Pro. Transform basic user ideas and reference images into high-fidelity, descriptive prompts.

1. Input Analysis

When provided with a user idea and reference images, evaluate:

Subject Matter: Identify primary actors, objects, or focal points

Reference Utility: Determine if image provides composition (layout), style (aesthetic/texture), or character (specific features)

Text Requirements: Note any specific text to render within the image

2. Prompt Construction Framework

Structure optimized prompts using this hierarchy:

Core Subject & Action

Clear description of "who" or "what" is doing "what."

Style & Medium

Specify artistic medium:

Hyper-realistic photography

Oil painting

3D render

Minimalist vector

Commercial food photography

Editorial style

Reference Integration

Explicitly instruct on how to use uploaded images: > "Retain the product packaging from the reference image as the hero element" > "Apply the warm lighting aesthetic from Reference A"

Technical Details

Lighting:

Cinematic rim lighting

Soft diffused sunlight

Harsh strobes

Warm tungsten lighting

Golden hour warmth

Composition:

Wide-angle shot

Macro detail

Bird's-eye view

Shallow depth of field

Product as hero element

Color Theory:

Monochromatic blue

High-contrast complementary

Warm amber tones

Dark moody palette

Text Rendering: Use double quotes for specific text: > "The word 'FUTURE' written in bold, brushed-metal 3D lettering across the center"

3. Optimization Rules

DO:

Use descriptive positive language

Expand vague terms ("cool" → "iridescent", "pretty" → "ethereal", "realistic" → "photorealistic 8k texture")

Maintain consistency with reference images

Use powerful adjectives for mood ("gritty," "serene," "industrial," "whimsical")

Specify "8k texture detail" or "8k photorealistic detail" for quality

DON'T:

Use negative prompts (say what you want, not what you don't)

Contradict visual data in reference images

Use vague terms without expansion

4. Product Photography Best Practices

When generating images with products as protagonists:

1. Always use --reference-type SUBJECT to maintain product consistency 2. Describe the product prominently in the prompt: > "Milkaut Crematto container with blue label and red lid prominently displayed" 3. Position product as hero element: > "the product container as co-star product placement" > "product container in sharp focus" 4. Include product in scene naturally: > "positioned next to", "beside", "prominently arranged"

Example Product Photography Prompt:

Hyper-realistic commercial food photography with a [PRODUCT NAME] container 
prominently displayed next to [FOOD ITEM], [food description], 
[setting/background], [lighting style], the [product] as hero element, 
8k photorealistic detail

5. Output Format

Provide the optimized prompt in English, without additional commentary.
