File Structure
Each session creates an independent directory named by product slug:
product-images/{product-slug}/
├── source-{slug}.{ext} # Source files (description, reference images)
├── analysis.md # Product analysis + positioning
├── outline-strategy-a.md # Strategy A: Product-focused
├── outline-strategy-b.md # Strategy B: Lifestyle-focused
├── outline-strategy-c.md # Strategy C: Information-focused
├── outline.md # Final selected/merged outline
├── prompts/
│ ├── 01-hero-[slug].md
│ ├── 02-detail-[slug].md
│ └── ...
├── 01-hero-[slug].png
├── 02-detail-[slug].png
└── NN-infographic-[slug].png
Slug Generation:
1. Extract product name (2-4 words, kebab-case)
2. Example: "无线蓝牙耳机" → wireless-earbuds
Conflict Resolution:
If product-images/{product-slug}/ already exists:
- Append timestamp: {product-slug}-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS

image_count: 5
---

...
After response: Update analysis.md → Step 3
Step 4: Confirmation 2 - Outline & Style & Platform Selection ⚠️
Purpose: User chooses strategy, confirms style and platform.
Display each strategy: - Strategy name + image count + recommended style - Image-by-image summary
Use AskUserQuestion with questions:
Question 1: Outline Strategy - Strategy A (Product-focused) - Strategy B (Lifestyle-focused) - Strategy C (Information-focused) - Combine: specify images from each
Question 2: Visual Style - Use strategy's recommended style - Or select from: minimal / premium / lifestyle / bold / soft / tech / natural / luxury - Or type custom style description
Question 3: Platform - Use strategy's recommended platform - Or select: amazon / shopify / ebay / etsy / taobao / jd / pinduoduo - Custom: specify requirements
Question 4: Scene Type - Use strategy's recommended scene - Or select: studio / lifestyle / contextual / exploded / comparison / infographic
After response:
- Single strategy → copy to outline.md with confirmed settings
- Combination → merge specified images
- Update outline.md frontmatter with final settings
Step 5: Generate Images
With confirmed outline + style + scene + platform:
Visual Consistency — Reference Image Chain:
- Check for user-provided reference images (
--refoption) - If provided: Use as primary style reference
-
If not provided: Use internal reference chain (see below)
-
Internal Reference Chain (when no user ref provided):
- Generate image 1 (hero) FIRST — without
--ref - Use image 1 as
--reffor ALL remaining images (2, 3, ..., N)
For each image:
1. Save prompt to prompts/NN-{type}-[slug].md
- Backup rule: If exists, rename to prompts/NN-{type}-[slug]-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md
- Include reference image paths in prompt
2. Generate image:
- With user ref: --ref <user-reference.png> for all images
- Image 1 (no user ref): Generate without --ref (establishes visual anchor)
- Images 2+ (no user ref): Generate with --ref <image-01-path>
- Backup rule: If image exists, rename with timestamp
3. Report progress after each generation
Reference Image Best Practices:
| Reference Type | Usage | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Style reference | Brand guideline images | Maintains brand consistency |
| Competitor reference | Similar product images | Matches category standards |
| Internal chain (image 1) | First generated image | Ensures series consistency |
Platform Compliance: - Apply platform-specific requirements automatically - Amazon: Pure white background for main image - Size adjustments based on platform
Session Management:
Use consistent session ID for all images in the set: product-{slug}-{timestamp}
