article-illustrator

Transform articles into illustrated markdown with hand-crafted scrapbook style images.

Workflow

1. Analyze article: Read the article content and identify key sections
2. Generate image prompts: Use the scrapbook prompt template to create image descriptions in JSON format
3. Generate images: Call glm-image skill for each image
4. Compose output: Insert images at appropriate positions and output final markdown

Step 1: Generate Image Prompts

Read the system prompt from references/scrapbook-prompt.md.

Using that system prompt, analyze the article and generate a JSON output with image descriptions:

{
  "project_title": "项目标题 - 手工剪贴簿风格系列图",
  "style": "实体手工剪贴簿（Physical Mixed-Media Scrapbook）",
  "total_images": 3,
  "images": [
    {
      "image_id": 1,
      "title": "图片标题",
      "description": "300-500字的连续画面描述...",
      "insert_after": "文章中应该插入此图的段落标识"
    }
  ]
}

Step 2: Generate Images

For each image in the JSON, run:

python3 ~/.claude/skills/glm-image/scripts/generate.py "<description>"

Collect the generated image URLs and local paths.

Step 3: Compose Final Markdown

Insert images into the article at appropriate positions using markdown format:

![图片标题](image_url)

Output Format

Return the complete markdown article with:

1. Original article text
2. Generated images inserted at logical break points
3. Image captions using the title from JSON

Tips

• Generate 2-5 images depending on article length
• Insert images after major topic transitions
• Keep image descriptions faithful to the scrapbook style
• Use portrait orientation (1088x1920) for all images
