GEMINI_API_KEY - Get from Google AI Studio REMOVE_BG_API_KEY - Get from remove.bg RECRAFT_API_KEY - Get from recraft.ai
Required Skills:
nanobanana - AI image generation (Gemini 3 Pro Image) File Output Location
All generated files should be saved to the .skill-archive directory:

Example:
.skill-archive/logo-creator/2026-01-18-opc-logo/ logo-01.png logo-02.png ... logo-09-cropped.png logo-09-nobg.png logo-09.svg preview.html
Guidelines:
Use current date in format yyyy-mm-dd Add short summary name (project/brand name, kebab-case) Create directory before generating first logo Keep all variations and iterations in same folder Final approved logo should be copied to user's desired location Workflow Step 1: Discovery & Requirements
Before generating, gather requirements from user:
Ask about:
Project/Brand name - What is the logo for?
Style preference - See references/styles.md for options:
Pixel art / 8-bit retro Minimalist / flat design 3D / isometric Hand-drawn / sketch Mascot / character Monogram / lettermark Abstract / geometric
Aspect ratio - Default is 1:1 (square), options:
1:1 - Square (favicons, app icons) 16:9 - Wide (headers, banners) 4:3 - Standard 2:3 - Portrait
Color preferences:
Monochrome (black & white) Specific brand colors Let AI decide
Reference images - Any existing logos or styles to reference?
Wait for user confirmation before proceeding!
Step 2: Generate Logo Variations
Generate 20 logo variations (default) using the nanobanana skill:
Generate single logo
python3
Batch generate 20 logos
python3
Guidelines:
Use batch_generate.py for multiple variations (includes auto-delay)
Save to .skill-archive/logo-creator/
Prompt Tips:
Include style keywords: "pixel art", "minimalist", "8-bit", "flat design" Specify colors: "black on white", "monochrome", "blue gradient" Add context: "tech startup", "food brand", "gaming company" Request format: "icon", "emblem", "mascot", "lettermark" Step 3: Create HTML Preview
Copy the preview template and open in browser:
cp
Then open in default browser:
open .skill-archive/logo-creator/
IMPORTANT: Update the HTML to include the correct number of logos generated.
Step 4: Iterate with User
Ask user which logos they prefer:
"Which logos do you like? (e.g., #5, #12, #18)" "What do you like about them?" "Any changes you'd want?"
Based on feedback:
Generate 10-20 more variations of favorite styles Use naming: logo-{original}-v{n}.png (e.g., logo-05-v1.png) Update HTML preview Repeat until user selects final logo Step 5: Finalize Logo
Once user approves a logo, process it:
5a. Crop whitespace (make 1:1 with no margins):
python3
5b. Remove background:
python3
5c. Convert to SVG:
python3
Step 6: Deliver Final Assets
Present final deliverables:
Final Logo Assets
