description	Generate SVGs, logos, icons, and design assets using QuiverAI. Use when asked to create logos, icons, illustrations, badges, or any vector graphics from text descriptions. Also use to vectorize/convert raster images (PNG, JPG) to SVG. Triggers on requests like "create a logo", "generate an icon", "make an SVG", "design a badge", "vectorize this image to SVG", "turn this photo into an illustration".
argument-hint	<prompt or image-url>
allowed-tools	Bash(${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh), Bash(${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/vectorize.sh)

You have access to QuiverAI's SVG generation API. Use it to create production-ready SVG graphics.

Prerequisites

The QUIVERAI_API_KEY environment variable must be set. If it's missing, tell the user to:

1. Get an API key at https://app.quiver.ai/settings/api-keys
2. Add to their shell: export QUIVERAI_API_KEY=your_key_here

Models

Model	Credits (generate)	Credits (vectorize)	Best for
arrow-1.1	20	15	Simple icons, logos, badges, flat/minimal designs
arrow-1.1-max	25	20	Detailed illustrations, general-purpose
arrow-1	30	30	Highest quality, portraits, complex scenes

All three models accept both text and image input.

Model selection

Default is arrow-1.1. Choose based on the request:

• arrow-1.1 — default; icons, logos, badges, flat/minimal designs
• arrow-1.1-max — more detail and polish when the user asks for higher quality or the design is complex
• arrow-1 — flagship; portraits, detailed illustrations, complex scenes, or when the user explicitly wants the best quality

Commands

Generate SVG from a text prompt

"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "PROMPT" [OUTPUT_FILE] [OPTIONS]

Option	Default	Description
--model MODEL	arrow-1.1	Model to use (arrow-1, arrow-1.1, arrow-1.1-max)
--n N	1	Number of variants (1–16, costs N credits each)
--instructions "STYLE"	—	Style/formatting guidance
--image IMAGE_URL_OR_FILE	—	Reference image (repeatable; up to 4 for arrow-1.1, 16 for arrow-1.1-max)
--temperature N	1	Output randomness (0–2); lower = more consistent results

Examples:

# Basic logo
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "minimalist rocket ship logo for a tech startup" logo.svg

# With style instructions
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "coffee shop badge with steam" badge.svg \
  --instructions "flat design, two colors, circular badge shape"

# Multiple variants
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "abstract wave icon" wave.svg --n 3
# Saves: wave_1.svg, wave_2.svg, wave_3.svg

# Inspired by a reference image
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "a fox mascot in the same style" mascot.svg \
  --image "https://example.com/brand-reference.png"

# Multiple reference images
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/generate.sh" "icon blending these two styles" icon.svg \
  --image ./ref1.png --image ./ref2.png

Vectorize an image to SVG (trace/convert)

Converts a raster image into an SVG by tracing its shapes — output closely matches the input.

"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/vectorize.sh" "IMAGE_URL_OR_LOCAL_FILE" [OUTPUT_FILE] [OPTIONS]

Option	Default	Description
--model MODEL	arrow-1.1	Model to use
--auto-crop	off	Auto-crop to dominant subject before vectorizing
--target-size N	—	Resize image to N×N pixels before vectorizing (128–4096)
--temperature N	1	Output randomness (0–2)

Examples:

# From URL
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/vectorize.sh" "https://example.com/logo.png" logo-vector.svg

# Local file with auto-crop
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/vectorize.sh" ./photo.png portrait.svg --auto-crop

# Resize before vectorizing
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/vectorize.sh" ./large-photo.png art.svg --target-size 512

Choosing the right command

Goal	Command
Create SVG from text (or text + reference images)	generate.sh
Convert/trace an existing image to SVG	vectorize.sh

Workflow

1. Understand the request — logo, icon, illustration, badge, or trace
2. Pick the right script — generate.sh for anything creative, vectorize.sh for tracing
3. Write a specific prompt — include the subject, use case, and key visual elements
4. Add --instructions to control style — e.g. "flat monochrome, rounded corners, minimal detail"
5. Run the script and report where the SVG was saved
6. For multiple variants (--n 2+), files are saved as name_1.svg, name_2.svg, etc.

Prompt tips

• Be specific: "a fox holding a magnifying glass, side profile" beats "a fox"
• State the use case: "for a mobile app icon", "for a company logo", "for a loading spinner"
• Style keywords that work well: flat design, line art, monochrome, gradient, outlined, filled, geometric, organic

Billing

Credits are consumed per SVG generated. --n N costs N × model credits. Default to --n 1 unless the user explicitly wants variants.
