Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image)

Use the bundled script to generate or edit images.

Generate

uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "your image description" --filename "output.png" --resolution 1K --aspect-ratio 16:9

Edit

uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "edit instructions" --filename "output.png" --input-image "/path/in.png" --resolution 2K

Batch API (50% cheaper, non-blocking)

# Single image
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "description" --filename "output.png" --batch

# Multiple images from JSON file
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --batch-file .tmp/requests.json

# Check / retrieve result of a previous job
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --batch-check "batches/abc123" --filename "output.png"

Batch file format (JSON array):

[
  {
    "prompt": "a cute cat",
    "filename": "cat.png",
    "resolution": "1K",
    "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
  },
  {
    "prompt": "a dog running",
    "filename": "dog.png",
    "resolution": "2K"
  }
]

Batch notes - --batch is always non-blocking: submits the job, prints BATCH_JOB: token, and exits immediately. - After submitting, add a temporary check list to HEARTBEAT.md. Include why this image was requested (context/intent), so it's clear even after a session reset. ``` # Temporary Check List

• Nano Banana Batch job: . Check batches/abc123 for job result. When ready, retrieve and send to user with mediaUrl parameter. Remove this item after reporting the result. ```
• If the user explicitly requests a timed check, use a cronjob instead of HEARTBEAT.md.
• The script tracks pending jobs in memory/pending-batch-jobs.json. Created on batch submit, removed on --batch-check completion. Format: [{"job_name", "filename", "prompt", "created_at"}]. File is deleted when empty.

API key - GEMINI_API_KEY env var - Or set skills."nano-banana-pro".apiKey / skills."nano-banana-pro".env.GEMINI_API_KEY in ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json

Notes - Resolutions: 1K (default), 2K, 4K. - Aspect ratios: 1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9, 21:9. Generation only (ignored for editing). - Use timestamps in filenames: YYYYMMDD-hhmmss-name.png. - The script outputs the saved file path. To send images via messaging channels, use the mediaUrl parameter in your channel action (e.g., mediaUrl: "/absolute/path/to/output.png"). - Do not read the image back; report the saved path and use it with mediaUrl to deliver the image to the user.
