Nanobanana Image Generation Skill
Generate or edit images using Google Gemini API through the nanobanana tool.
Requirements
1. GEMINI_API_KEY: Must be configured in ~/.nanobanana.env or export GEMINI_API_KEY=
2. Python3 with depedent packages installed: google-genai, Pillow, python-dotenv. They could be installed via python3 -m pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/requirements.txt if not installed yet.
3. Executable: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py
Instructions
For image generation
1. Ask the user for: - What they want to create (the prompt) - Desired aspect ratio/size (optional, defaults to 9:16 portrait) - Output filename (optional, auto-generates UUID if not specified) - Model preference (optional, defaults to gemini-3-pro-image-preview) - Resolution (optional, defaults to 1K)
2. Run the nanobanana script with appropriate parameters:
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py --prompt "description of image" --output "filename.png"
3. Show the user the saved image path when complete
For image editing
1. Ask the user for: - Input image file(s) to edit - What changes they want (the prompt) - Output filename (optional)
2. Run with input images:
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py --prompt "editing instructions" --input image1.png image2.png --output "edited.png"
Available Options

1K (default)2K4KExamples
Generate a simple image
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py --prompt "A serene mountain landscape at sunset with a lake"
Generate with specific size and output
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py \
--prompt "Modern minimalist logo for a tech startup" \
--size 1024x1024 \
--output "logo.png"
Generate landscape image with high resolution
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py \
--prompt "Futuristic cityscape with flying cars" \
--size 1344x768 \
--resolution 2K \
--output "cityscape.png"
Edit existing images
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py \
--prompt "Add a rainbow in the sky" \
--input photo.png \
--output "photo-with-rainbow.png"
Use faster model
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/nanobanana-skill/nanobanana.py \
--prompt "Quick sketch of a cat" \
--model gemini-2.5-flash-image \
--output "cat-sketch.png"
Error Handling
If the script fails:
GEMINI_API_KEY is exported or set in ~/.nanobanana.envBest Practices
1. Be descriptive in prompts - include style, mood, colors, composition 2. For logos/graphics, use square aspect ratio (1024x1024) 3. For social media posts, use 9:16 for stories or 1:1 for posts 4. For wallpapers, use 16:9 or 21:9 5. Start with 1K resolution for testing, upgrade to 2K/4K for final output 6. Use gemini-3-pro-image-preview for best quality, gemini-2.5-flash-image for speed
