Transpose Image Skill
This skill safely and correctly transposes an image.
When to use this
Use this skill when the user asks to transpose an image. It ensures the operation is mathematically a transpose (mirroring across the diagonal) and not just a 90-degree rotation.
How to run it
scripts/transpose.sh <input_image> <output_image>
Rules
- Run the script. Do not rewrite what it does as a fresh
convert call.
- Understand the difference between
-transpose and -rotate 90. They are not the same operation, even though they yield the same output dimensions. -transpose mirrors the image; -rotate 90 turns it.
- Verify before reporting success. Run
scripts/verify.sh <input> <output>. It checks that transposing back reproduces the input, and that the result is not what -rotate 90 would have made. Report what it prints.
- Only ImageMagick and bash. No Python.
- If ImageMagick is missing, say so and stop.
