What This Skill Does

The Antekirt Illustration Skill empowers your OpenClaw agent to act as a creative bridge to professional, artist-backed visual generation. Unlike standard generative models that rely on generic training data, Antekirt connects directly to a curated platform of human artists. This skill automates the configuration of API requests, manages the asynchronous polling required for high-quality rendering, and returns direct URLs to your generated assets. It supports a full creative workflow: from listing available artistic styles and generating base images to advanced post-processing like SVG vectorization for graphic design and AI-driven video animation for motion content.

Installation

To install this skill, use the ClawHub command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/andrejdorsian/antekirt-generate-artist-backed-illustrations. Once installed, you must configure your environment variables to enable connectivity. Set ANTEKIRT_API_KEY to your unique credential obtained from the Antekirt dashboard and ensure ANTEKIRT_BASE_URL is configured to https://api.antekirt.com. For users in sandboxed environments, the skill provides alternative curl workflows, allowing you to bypass Node.js network restrictions by executing API calls directly through your system terminal. Always verify that your network environment allows outbound traffic to the Antekirt API endpoints.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for designers, marketers, and developers who require specific aesthetic consistency. Use it to generate custom assets for web projects, create unique social media content with specific artistic flair, or transform raster images into scalable SVG vectors for technical documentation and icon sets. It is particularly effective for teams that need to maintain brand identity by consistently using the same artist's style across a range of different illustrations, whether for static web headers or short animated promotional clips.

Example Prompts

1. "Antekirt, please generate an image of a futuristic city skyline in the style of Lupita Banjoon."
2. "Draw me a cozy coffee shop scene, then vectorize it into an SVG file."
3. "Create art depicting a mountain village at dusk and animate the result as a 4-second video with a slow zoom."

Tips & Limitations

To optimize your workflow, always utilize the --search flag when listing artists to find the exact style needed before initiating a generation. Keep in mind that generation, vectorization, and animation each carry specific credit costs (3, 5, and 25 credits respectively), so monitor your usage. If you experience DNS resolution errors in restricted network environments, fallback to the provided curl command structures. For complex prompts, provide specific descriptive details to maximize the artist's style interpretation. If a request times out, remember that the default polling timeout is 180 seconds; for extremely high-resolution or long video tasks, you may need to increase this limit via the --timeout flag.
