Transform Generate Image

Added March 5, 2026 Source: Transloadit

Use Transloadit to generate images directly from text prompts. Provide a text description, and the skill outputs an image file to your local directory. This is useful for quickly creating visual assets without needing to integrate with a separate image generation API.

Installation

This skill is self-contained. Copy the SKILL.md below directly into your project to get started.

.claude/skills/transform-generate-image/SKILL.md    # Claude Code
.cursor/skills/transform-generate-image/SKILL.md    # Cursor

Or install as a personal skill (available across all your projects):

~/.claude/skills/transform-generate-image/SKILL.md

You can also install using the skills CLI:

npx skills add transloadit/skills --skill transform-generate-image-with-transloadit

Requires Node.js 18+.

name: transform-generate-image-with-transloadit
description: One-off image generation (prompt -> image file) using Transloadit via the `transloadit` CLI. Prefer builtin templates (`builtin/generate-image@latest`) and download outputs locally via `-o`.
---

# Run (No Input File)

Do not use `--watch` for inputless templates.

```bash
npx -y @transloadit/node assemblies create \
  --template builtin/generate-image@latest \
  -f prompt='A minimal product photo of a chameleon on white background' \
  -o ./out/ \
  -j
```

Footnote (discover more builtin templates):
```bash
npx -y @transloadit/node templates list --include-builtin exclusively-latest --fields id,name --json
```

# Debug If It Fails

```bash
npx -y @transloadit/node assemblies get <assemblyIdOrUrl> -j
```

Notes:
- Some generator/AI robots can be account-gated; if the assembly fails with capability/availability errors, switch templates or confirm the feature is enabled for your account.
