Features	Large images, atmospheric, instant appeal
Best for	High-aesthetic products, lifestyle, mood-based content
Structure	Hero image → Detail shots → Lifestyle scene → CTA

File Structure

Each session creates an independent directory named by content slug:

xhs-images/{topic-slug}/
├── source-{slug}.{ext}             # Source files (text, images, etc.)
├── analysis.md                     # Deep analysis + questions asked
├── outline-strategy-a.md           # Strategy A: Story-driven
├── outline-strategy-b.md           # Strategy B: Information-dense
├── outline-strategy-c.md           # Strategy C: Visual-first
├── outline.md                      # Final selected/merged outline
├── prompts/
│   ├── 01-cover-[slug].md
│   ├── 02-content-[slug].md
│   └── ...
├── 01-cover-[slug].png
├── 02-content-[slug].png
└── NN-ending-[slug].png

Slug Generation:

1. Extract main topic from content (2-4 words, kebab-case)
2. Example: "AI工具推荐" → ai-tools-recommend

Conflict Resolution: If xhs-images/{topic-slug}/ already exists:

• Append timestamp: {topic-slug}-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS
• Example: ai-tools exists → ai-tools-20260118-143052

Source Files: Copy all sources with naming source-{slug}.{ext}:

• source-article.md, source-photo.jpg, etc.
• Multiple sources supported: text, images, files from conversation

Step 0: Load Preferences (EXTEND.md) ⛔ MUST DO FIRST

Purpose: Load user preferences or run first-time setup.

⚠️ 重要提醒：

• 如果 EXTEND.md 存在 → 加载偏好设置 → 直接跳到 Step 1
• 如果 EXTEND.md 不存在 → 必须运行首次设置流程，保存配置后才能继续
• 禁止：在 Step 0 完成前询问内容、风格、布局等问题
• 禁止：跳过 Step 0 直接进入内容分析

Use Bash to check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):

# Check project-level first
test -f .baoyu-skills/baoyu-xhs-images/EXTEND.md && echo "project"

# Then user-level (cross-platform: $HOME works on macOS/Linux/WSL)
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-xhs-images/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬───────────────────┐ │ Path │ Location │ ├────────────────────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────┤ │ .baoyu-skills/baoyu-xhs-images/EXTEND.md │ Project directory │ ├────────────────────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────┤ │ $HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-xhs-images/EXTEND.md │ User home │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────┘

┌───────────┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Result │ Action │ ├───────────┼─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Found │ Read, parse, display summary → Continue to Step 1 │ ├───────────┼─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Not found │ ⛔ BLOCKING: Run first-time setup ONLY (see below) → Complete and save EXTEND.md → Then Step 1 │ └───────────┴─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

First-Time Setup (when EXTEND.md not found):

Language: Use user's input language or saved language preference.

Use AskUserQuestion with ALL questions in ONE call. See references/config/first-time-setup.md for question details.

EXTEND.md Supports: Watermark | Preferred style/layout | Custom style definitions | Language preference

Schema: references/config/preferences-schema.md

Step 1: Analyze Content → analysis.md

Read source content, save it if needed, and perform deep analysis.

Actions:

1. Save source content (if not already a file):
   • If user provides a file path: use as-is
   • If user pastes content: save to source.md in target directory
   • Backup rule: If source.md exists, rename to source-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md
2. Read source content
3. Deep analysis following references/workflows/analysis-framework.md:
   • Content type classification (种草/干货/测评/教程/避坑...)
   • Hook analysis (爆款标题潜力)
   • Target audience identification
   • Engagement potential (收藏/分享/评论)
   • Visual opportunity mapping
   • Swipe flow design
4. Detect source language
5. Determine recommended image count (2-10)
6. Generate clarifying questions (see Step 2)
7. Save to analysis.md

Step 2: Confirmation 1 - Content Understanding ⚠️

Purpose: Validate understanding + collect missing info. Do NOT skip.

Display summary:

• Content type + topic identified
• Key points extracted
• Tone detected
• Source images count

Use AskUserQuestion for:

1. Core selling point (multiSelect: true)
2. Target audience
3. Style preference: Authentic sharing / Professional review / Aesthetic mood / Auto
4. Additional context (optional)

After response: Update analysis.md → Step 3

Step 3: Generate 3 Outline + Style Variants

Based on analysis + user context, create three distinct strategy variants. Each variant includes both outline structure and visual style recommendation.

For each strategy:

Strategy	Filename	Outline	Recommended Style
A	outline-strategy-a.md	Story-driven: emotional, before/after	warm, cute, fresh
B	outline-strategy-b.md	Information-dense: structured, factual	notion, minimal, chalkboard
C	outline-strategy-c.md	Visual-first: atmospheric, minimal text	bold, pop, retro

Outline format (YAML front matter + content):

---
strategy: a  # a, b, or c
name: Story-Driven
style: warm  # recommended style for this strategy
style_reason: "Warm tones enhance emotional storytelling and personal connection"
elements:  # from style preset, can be customized in Step 4
  background: solid-pastel
  decorations: [clouds, stars-sparkles]
  emphasis: star-burst
  typography: highlight
layout: balanced  # primary layout
image_count: 5
---

## P1 Cover
**Type**: cover
**Hook**: "入冬后脸不干了🥹终于找到对的面霜"
**Visual**: Product hero shot with cozy winter atmosphere
**Layout**: sparse

## P2 Problem
**Type**: pain-point
**Message**: Previous struggles with dry skin
**Visual**: Before state, relatable scenario
**Layout**: balanced

...

Differentiation requirements:

• Each strategy MUST have different outline structure AND different recommended style
• Adapt page count: A typically 4-6, B typically 3-5, C typically 3-4
• Include style_reason explaining why this style fits the strategy
• Consider user's style preference from Step 2

Reference: references/workflows/outline-template.md

Step 4: Confirmation 2 - Outline & Style & Elements Selection ⚠️

Purpose: User chooses outline strategy, confirms visual style, and customizes elements. Do NOT skip.

Display each strategy:

• Strategy name + page count + recommended style
• Page-by-page summary (P1 → P2 → P3...)

Use AskUserQuestion with three questions:

Question 1: Outline Strategy

• Strategy A (Recommended if "authentic sharing")
• Strategy B (Recommended if "professional review")
• Strategy C (Recommended if "aesthetic mood")
• Combine: specify pages from each

Question 2: Visual Style

• Use strategy's recommended style (show which style)
• Or select from: cute / fresh / warm / bold / minimal / retro / pop / notion / chalkboard
• Or type custom style description

Question 3: Visual Elements (show after style selection) Display the selected style's default elements from preset, then ask:

• Use style defaults (Recommended) - show preview: background, decorations, emphasis
• Adjust background - options: solid-pastel / solid-saturated / gradient-linear / gradient-radial / paper-texture / grid
• Adjust decorations - options: hearts / stars-sparkles / flowers / clouds / leaves / confetti
• Type custom element preferences

After response:

• Single strategy → copy to outline.md with confirmed style
• Combination → merge specified pages with confirmed style
• Custom request → regenerate based on feedback
• Style defaults → use preset's Element Combination as-is
• Background adjustment → update elements.background with user choice
• Decorations adjustment → update elements.decorations with user choice
• Custom elements → parse user's preferences into elements fields
• Update outline.md frontmatter with final style and elements

Step 5: Generate Images

With confirmed outline + style + layout:

Visual Consistency — Reference Image Chain: To ensure character/style consistency across all images in a series:

1. Generate image 1 (cover) FIRST — without --ref
2. Use image 1 as --ref for ALL remaining images (2, 3, ..., N)
   • This anchors the character design, color rendering, and illustration style
   • Command pattern: --ref <path-to-image-01.png> added to every subsequent generation

This is critical for styles that use recurring characters, mascots, or illustration elements. Image 1 becomes the visual anchor for the entire series.

For each image (cover + content + ending):

1. Save prompt to prompts/NN-{type}-[slug].md (in user's preferred language)
   • Backup rule: If prompt file exists, rename to prompts/NN-{type}-[slug]-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md
2. Generate image:
   • Image 1: Generate without --ref (this establishes the visual anchor)
   • Images 2+: Generate with --ref <image-01-path> for consistency
   • Backup rule: If image file exists, rename to NN-{type}-[slug]-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png
3. Report progress after each generation

Watermark Application (if enabled in preferences): Add to each image generation prompt:

Include a subtle watermark "[content]" positioned at [position].
The watermark should be legible but not distracting from the main content.

Reference: references/config/watermark-guide.md

Image Generation Skill Selection:

• Check available image generation skills
• If multiple skills available, ask user preference

Session Management: If image generation skill supports --sessionId:

1. Generate unique session ID: xhs-{topic-slug}-{timestamp}
2. Use same session ID for all images
3. Combined with reference image chain, ensures maximum visual consistency
