[Claude Desktop Guidance]
Prefer outputType='file' for medium or large images. base64 and combine responses can exceed Claude Desktop's context limit.
On Claude Desktop for Windows, use the FileSystem extension to choose reference-image paths and a writable absolute outputPath before calling this tool.
Use base64 only for small previews or when the client explicitly needs inline image data.
[Model Guidance]
NanoBanana2.1 (default): Google Nano Banana 2.1 (gemini-nano-banana-2.1). Best overall quality, prompt adherence, character consistency, text rendering and reference-image handling. Supports 1K/2K/4K and up to 14 reference images, plus thinking and grounding.
Flash3.1 (deprecated): gemini-3.1-flash-image. Google shuts it down on October 29, 2026; requests are rejected from that date. Please migrate to NanoBanana2.1.
Lite3.1 (Nano Banana 2 Lite): Ultra-fast, cost-effective, 1K-only, no search grounding. Ideal for quick drafting and low-latency iteration.
Pro3: Higher fidelity, but more costly and slower.
Flash2.5: Legacy, maintained for compatibility. 1K only. Aliases: 'flash' resolves to NanoBanana2.1 (the default), 'pro' to Pro3.
[Thinking] thinking_mode accepts minimal, medium, high (default: medium, matching NanoBanana2.1's model default). NanoBanana2.1 supports all three levels; Flash3.1 and Pro3 support minimal/high and fall back to their own default when given an unsupported level.
[Resolutions] output_resolution supports 1K, 2K and 4K (0.5K was removed in v1.6.0). It is auto-selected from the requested pixel size in normal mode.
[Aspect Ratios] Gemini supports the following aspect ratios (model-dependent):
Common to all models: 1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9, 21:9
Flash3.1 only: 1:4, 4:1, 1:8, 8:1
Normal mode: provide outputWidth/outputHeight and the server will choose the closest Gemini aspect ratio and source resolution, then resize to the requested pixel size. No-resize mode: set noresize=true and provide aspectRatio plus output_resolution. The server will return Gemini's native pixel dimensions for that combination without post-generation resizing.
If you intentionally want to control resizing/cropping in normal mode, use the 'resizeMode' parameter: 'crop' (default, center crop), 'letterbox' (fit with padding), 'contain' (trim transparent margins then fit), or 'stretch' (distort to fit).
[IMPORTANT] Always preserve the user's prompt as-is, including language and nuance. Do not translate or summarize.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| debug | No | Debug mode: output intermediate processing images and prompt | |
| model | No | Model tier to use for generation (default: NanoBanana2.1; see tool description for details; "flash" resolves to NanoBanana2.1, "pro" to Pro3; "Lite3.1" is the low-latency Nano Banana 2 Lite model, 1K-only, no grounding; "Flash3.1" is deprecated — Google shuts it down on October 29, 2026) | NanoBanana2.1 |
| prompt | Yes | User-provided image prompt. Preserve the original wording and detail; do not summarize or translate. Only append transparency-related hints if needed. | |
| noresize | No | Skip post-generation resizing and return Gemini native dimensions directly. When true, provide aspectRatio and output_resolution instead of outputWidth/outputHeight. | |
| fringeMode | No | Fringe reduction mode: auto (size-based), crisp (binary alpha), hd (force-clear 1px boundary for large images). | auto |
| outputPath | No | Output directory path (MUST be an absolute path when outputType is file or combine). In Claude Desktop on Windows, use the FileSystem extension to choose or prepare a writable absolute path such as C:\temp. | |
| outputType | No | Output format: file=file only, base64=base64 only, combine=both. In Claude Desktop, prefer file for medium or large images to avoid context-size limits; use base64 only for small previews. | combine |
| resizeMode | No | Resize mode: crop=center crop, stretch=distort, letterbox=fit with padding, contain=trim transparent margins then fit | crop |
| aspectRatio | No | Gemini aspect ratio to use directly when noresize=true. Ignored in normal resize mode. | |
| outputWidth | No | Output image width in pixels. Required unless noresize=true. In normal mode, the image will be generated using the closest supported Gemini aspect ratio and resolution, then resized to this width. | |
| transparent | No | Request transparent background (PNG or WebP only). Background color is selected by histogram analysis. | |
| outputHeight | No | Output image height in pixels. Required unless noresize=true. In normal mode, the image will be generated using the closest supported Gemini aspect ratio and resolution, then resized to this height. | |
| output_format | No | Output format | png |
| thinking_mode | No | Thinking level: minimal, medium, high (default: medium, matching NanoBanana2.1's model default; requires a thinking-capable model — NanoBanana2.1 accepts all three levels, Flash3.1/Pro3 accept minimal/high and fall back to their own default otherwise) | medium |
| colorTolerance | No | Tolerance for color matching (0-255). Higher values are more permissive for transparent color selection and keying. | |
| grounding_type | No | Grounding tool usage (requires a grounding-capable model; see [Model Guidance] in the tool description) | none |
| outputFileName | Yes | Output filename (extension auto-added if missing) | |
| referenceImages | No | Reference images for style guidance (max 14 files; per-model limits are enforced automatically) | |
| include_metadata | No | Include grounding and reasoning metadata in JSON output (optional, may increase payload size). | |
| include_thoughts | No | Optional (default: false). Request thought fields from Gemini (thinking-capable models only). Thought content is returned in MCP response only when include_metadata=true. | |
| transparentColor | No | Color to make transparent. Hex (e.g. #FF00FF). null defaults to #FF00FF when transparent=true. | |
| output_resolution | No | Gemini generation source resolution: 1K, 2K, and 4K (optional in normal mode, required when noresize=true; 0.5K was removed in v1.6.0). In normal mode, the final image is resized to the requested pixel size after generation. |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations declare destructiveHint=true and openWorldHint=true, and the description adds substantial behavioral context beyond them: model deprecation dates, fallback behavior for unsupported thinking levels, histogram-based background selection, and the auto-resize pipeline. It does not explain the destructive aspect — notably whether an existing file at outputPath is overwritten — which is the main remaining gap.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Front-loaded purpose followed by clearly bracketed sections, so the agent can scan to the relevant concern. It is long and the [Thinking], [Resolutions], and [Aspect Ratios] sections restate schema parameter descriptions, so not every sentence is strictly additive.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a 22-parameter tool with no output schema, the description covers client constraints, model tiers, mode interplay, and prompt-preservation rules. It leaves unstated what happens on unwritable outputPath or on overwrite of an existing file, which matters given destructiveHint=true.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3, but the description adds model-dependent semantics not in the schema: which aspect ratios are Flash3.1-only, that aliases resolve ('flash' to NanoBanana2.1, 'pro' to Pro3), and how normal vs noresize mode changes which of outputWidth/outputHeight, aspectRatio, and output_resolution matter.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The opening sentence states a specific verb and resource ('Generate image assets using Gemini AI') plus the two distinguishing capabilities (optional transparency, reference images). With no sibling tools to disambiguate against, this fully identifies the operation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Gives explicit when-to-use rules: prefer outputType='file' for medium/large images, base64 only for small previews, use FileSystem extension on Windows for reference paths, and normal mode vs noresize mode selection. Model selection is also routed with named tradeoffs (Lite3.1 for drafting, Pro3 for fidelity).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

generate_image
TDQS
Scored across 1 tool
With a single tool there is no possibility of misselection; generate_image has one unambiguous purpose. The extensive guidance distinguishes modes and parameters rather than competing tools, so no disambiguation burden is placed on the agent.
generate_image follows a clear verb_noun snake_case pattern. There are no other names to conflict with, so consistency is trivially satisfied and readable.
A one-tool surface is thin for what is effectively a full image-generation service with multiple models, resolutions, reference handling, and resize modes. Much of that surface is expressed through parameters and documentation rather than discoverable tools, making the count borderline.
Core generation is well covered: model choice, resolution, aspect ratio, transparency, reference images, and resize behavior are all parameterized. Minor gaps exist around ancillary operations such as editing/upscaling existing assets or programmatically listing available models, which are only described in prose guidance.
