minimax-imagegen
Expert image generation skill using MiniMax image-01. Use this skill ANY TIME the user asks to create, generate, make, or produce an image, visual, graphic, banner, illustration, icon, screenshot mockup, hero image, thumbnail, social media asset, app icon, website visual, or any other image — even if they just say "make me a picture of X." This skill should also trigger when the user asks to improve or iterate on a previous image prompt, or when image output would enhance a task (e.g., "I need a hero image for my blog post"). Covers all use cases: website assets for tonyreviewsthings.com and tonysimons.dev, app/software media, marketing visuals, social media content, UI mockups, character/portrait generation, and general creative requests.

The minimax-imagegen skill is the primary visual engine for the OpenClaw AI agent, utilizing the powerful MiniMax image-01 model to generate high-quality visual assets. Whether you need a hero image for a blog post, a sleek UI mockup for a software project, or custom marketing graphics, this skill acts as your personal prompt engineer and design studio. It excels at translating natural language requests into complex, highly specific image generation prompts that adhere to professional aesthetic standards.

- App Development: Generate icon assets and UI design inspiration using minimalist or flat design styles.
Example Prompts
- "Make me a hero image for my blog post about AI agents. It should look professional, clean, and futuristic."

Tips & Limitations
To get the best results, always be specific about the desired setting and mood. While the AI can make creative judgments, providing context such as 'professional', 'cinematic', or 'hand-drawn' significantly improves accuracy. If the generated output isn't quite right, you can follow up with specific iterations to refine the lighting, color scheme, or composition. Note that the skill currently relies on the MiniMax engine's capabilities; for text-heavy requirements, keep descriptions concise to avoid potential rendering artifacts.
