What Article Illustrator does

Article Illustrator analyzes article structure and identifies where visual aids are needed, then generates illustrations using a Type × Style × Palette approach. Use it when asked to illustrate an article, add images, generate images for an article, or 为文章配图.

Article Illustrator is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Article Illustrator comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, claude-skills, codex-skills and openclaw-skills.

Documentation

README

Article Illustrator

Analyze articles, identify illustration positions, generate images with Type × Style × Palette consistency.

User Input Tools

When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):

  1. Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., AskUserQuestion, request_user_input, clarify, ask_user, or any equivalent.
  2. Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
  3. Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
