qwen-image-generator

description

Generate images with DashScope Qwen-Image 2.0 from rough user requests and save them locally. Use this whenever the user asks to generate an image, illustration, poster, flashcard, teaching card, cover art, scene image, mascot, product concept, or "文生图"/"画一张图", even if the request is vague. Supports first-time setup via EXTEND.md, fills missing style and size from saved preferences, and asks only for still-missing image parameters.

Qwen Image Generator

Turn rough image requests into saved local files. Default to doing the work end to end: load preferences, ask only for still-missing settings, write one concrete English prompt, generate sequentially, save immediately, and report the file paths plus the final prompt used.

Compatibility

Works best with PowerShell, Node.js 22+, environment variables, and file tools. The PowerShell entry is thin; scripts/generate_qwen_image.ts owns the DashScope call, polling, downloads, and JSON output.

Runtime layout

File	Role
scripts/generate_qwen_image.ps1	Windows entrypoint
scripts/generate_qwen_image.ts	DashScope client, polling, downloads, JSON output
references/config/extend-schema.md	EXTEND.md keys
references/config/first-time-setup.md	blocking first-run setup
references/prompting.md	style presets, prompt shaping, flashcard rules

Credentials

Resolve credentials in this order:

1. QWEN_IMAGE_API_KEY
2. DASHSCOPE_API_KEY

Optional: DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL

If no key exists, stop with the credential error. Do not pretend generation succeeded.

Preferences

Check for EXTEND.md in this order:

1. .baoyu-skills/qwen-image-generator/EXTEND.md
2. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/baoyu-skills/qwen-image-generator/EXTEND.md
3. $HOME/.baoyu-skills/qwen-image-generator/EXTEND.md

If none exists, run the blocking setup in references/config/first-time-setup.md, save the file, then continue the image task.

Built-in defaults when neither the request nor EXTEND.md overrides them:

• model: qwen-image-2.0
• style: flat-illustration
• size: 1024x1024
• text policy: avoid
• prompt enhancement: true
• watermark: false
• output directory: ./generated-images/

Working rules

1. Parse the request for subject, style, size, visible text, and output path.
2. Fill missing values from EXTEND.md.
3. Ask only for still-missing values that materially change the result.
4. Write the final prompt in English.
5. Prefer project batch wrappers when they already handle reruns or selective regeneration. Otherwise run scripts/generate_qwen_image.ps1.
6. Generate sequentially by default. Only parallelize when the user explicitly asks.
7. Save each successful result immediately and report the saved path, final prompt, and effective settings.

Load references/prompting.md when the request needs preset choice, educational-image rules, or prompt-shaping guidance.
