Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| generate_imageA | Generate or edit images using Google Gemini. Provide just a prompt for text-to-image generation. Add image file paths to edit or use reference images. Set removeBackground to get a transparent PNG cutout in one call (local AI matte; works on any subject, no extra API cost). Returns the saved file path, model used, token counts, and estimated cost. |
| process_imageA | Process an existing image locally using sharp. Crop, resize, remove background, convert format, or trim whitespace. Free, fast, no API calls. For AI-powered editing (style changes, complex background removal), use generate_image with the image as input instead. |
