- Needs
- Codex CLI with its built-in image tool (counts toward Codex usage, no key needed) OR a paid GPT_IMAGE_API_KEY (OpenAI or compatible proxy) for the API fallback; curl, jq and base64 for the API path; ImageMagick or sips optional for platform export sizing

- Copy the installer prompt below into your Muse β your agent does the rest.
Curated by Skill Harbor β π³ **Paid API required / API payante requise**: @zenstory-ai's novel-cover studio: from a book title and pen name it detects the genre (xianxia, xuanhuan, ancient/modern romance, urban, suspense, sci-fi, history, horror, light novel), builds a three-layer English image prompt (text layer with genre-specific font styling for the title and a carefully designed author byline, platform style layer, scene layer with 2β3 composition variants), then generates with GPT-Image-2 β either through Codex CLI's built-in image tool (counts toward Codex usage, no key needed) or an API fallback with `GPT_IMAGE_API_KEY` (base64-to-PNG save, versioned outputs, prompt copies kept), with platform export sizing (e.g. 600Γ800 for Tomato novels via ImageMagick/sips center-crop, no distortion), and a quality-check + iteration loop. Honest caveats: **the skill is written in Chinese**; image generation is paid with no free tier (Codex subscription usage on the built-in path, or your own paid API key on the fallback path β the skill refuses to silently switch to a billable API); prompt text is authored in English, titles rendered in Chinese; MIT-licensed. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use. Discovered via skills.sh.

Prerequisites: Codex CLI with its built-in image tool (counts toward Codex usage, no key needed) OR a paid GPT_IMAGE_API_KEY (OpenAI or compatible proxy) for the API fallback; curl, jq and base64 for the API path; ImageMagick or sips optional for platform export sizing Install "Chinese web-novel cover generator (GPT-Image-2)" for me. It generates professional Chinese web-novel covers from a book title and pen name: genre detection, three-layer English image prompts (title font, author byline design, platform style, scene composition), generation via Codex built-in image tool or GPT-Image-2 API fallback, versioned PNG outputs, platform export sizes, and a quality-check loop β by @zenstory-ai, MIT-licensed. Repository: https://github.com/zenstory-ai/oh-story-claudecode/blob/main/skills/story-cover/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and any helper files) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "story-cover". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. decide between the Codex built-in path and the paid API key; save GPT_IMAGE_API_KEY in the vault if using the API fallback; the skill is written in Chinese β work in Chinese when invoking it). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you β no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the sellerβs own page, usually Stripe.
What does the β next to a creatorβs name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself β always check a build before installing it.
