Prompting image models on Replicate Distilled from Replicate's blog posts on prompting image models (2024-2026). Techniques are model-agnostic and focus on transferable principles. Choose a model with the API, not from memory This skill describes general prompting techniques. To choose a model, use the find-models skill and query the Replicate API. The image model landscape changes weekly. Don't assume specific models exist or are still state-of-the-art based on names you've seen before. Always search the API for current options, then read the schema before running anything. For pricing and feature comparison, see the compare-models skill. Writing prompts Use natural language, not keyword lists Write full sentences describing what you want. Modern image models understand grammar and context far better than keyword-stuffed prompts. Good: "A woman standing in a Tokyo alleyway at dusk, neon signs reflecting off wet pavement" Bad: "woman, Tokyo, alleyway, dusk, neon, wet pavement" Show more
