  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by alfredxw on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Chapter Illustration AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/alfredxw/denova/tree/master/skills/chapter-illustration
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/alfredxw/denova.git /tmp/denova
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/denova/skills/chapter-illustration .claude/skills/chapter-illustration
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Chapter Illustration in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Chapter Illustration on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Chapter Illustration is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Chapter Illustration

Use this Skill when the author requests an illustration for a chapter or the editor sends /chapter-illustration.

Workflow

  1. Determine the target chapter path:
    • Use the chapter path explicitly provided by the user.
    • Otherwise, use the chapter currently focused in the IDE context.
    • If no chapter is focused, identify the most recent chapter from the workspace summary or chapters/ directory.
  2. Read the target chapter before composing the image prompt. If the selected path is not a chapter, ask the user to select one.
  3. Choose a visually compelling, spoiler-free moment from the chapter. Do not reveal future reversals, hidden identities, or undisclosed canon.
  4. Write a clear Chinese image prompt containing the subject, scene, composition, lighting, style, and mood, with explicit negative constraints against text, watermarks, and logos.
  5. Call the general generate_image tool with:
    • purpose: chapter_illustration.
    • target_path: the target chapter's relative path.
    • prompt: the complete Chinese image prompt.
    • alt_text: a Chinese description suitable for a Markdown image.
    • size: optionally choose a supported 2K, 3K, or 4K size based on the composition; otherwise omit it and use the default policy.
    • output_format: png or jpeg; omit it when uncertain.
  6. After the tool returns, briefly report what was generated and tell the user to use the illustration card's insertion action. Do not repeat the Markdown image reference in a fenced code block. Do not edit the chapter prose automatically.

Constraints

  • Generate exactly one chapter illustration per request.
  • Do not generate batches of candidates.
  • Do not use file-write tools to insert Markdown image syntax into the chapter.
  • If the user asks to insert the result, prefer the UI insertion action.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Chapter Illustration AI skill do?

Generate one spoiler-free illustration for the current or specified chapter and save it under workspace assets/writing.

Why use Chapter Illustration on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Chapter Illustration is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Chapter Illustration in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/alfredxw/denova/tree/master/skills/chapter-illustration. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Chapter Illustration?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Chapter Illustration?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Chapter Illustration with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Chapter Illustration AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by alfredxw under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
