Article Thumbnails (article-thumbnails)
Generates and evaluates brand-appropriate thumbnail candidates for articles or newsletters using Gemini models.
Prerequisites
- Requires
GEMINI_API_KEYto be set in the environment.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Analyze Article Copy
- Read the article text or link provided by the user.
- Identify the core theme, key concepts, tone (e.g. technical, casual, minimal), and metaphoric visual ideas.
2. Suggest Visual Concepts
Propose 3 distinct visual compositions based on the article's theme and your brand guidelines.
- Concept 1 (Conceptual): Abstract representation of the core idea.
- Concept 2 (Literal/Concrete): Showing a practical scenario or object.
- Concept 3 (Minimalist/Graphic): Strong typography and simple icons/shapes.
3. Generate Image Candidates
Ask the user to select their preferred concept. Once selected:
- Construct a detailed image generation prompt following Gemini best practices (specifying subject, style, lighting, composition, and color palette).
- Call your Gemini image generation script or tool with the prompt:
python3 scripts/call_gemini_image.py --prompt "{detailed_prompt}" --candidates 3 - Save the resulting images in a local
assets/folder.
4. Evaluate and Select
- Use your Vision capabilities to inspect the generated candidate images.
- Review each candidate against your brand specifications (correct logo colors, text alignment, and aesthetic appeal).
- Present the best candidates to the user with a brief rationale for each.
