Use this skill for still-image generation, particularly aimed at game art assets. It is designed for developers using SpriteCook to create pixel art and HD styles from text prompts.
$ npx skills add https://github.com/spritecook/skills --skill spritecook-generate-spritesSpriteCook Generate Sprites teaches AI agents how to create production-ready game art assets in pixel art or detailed/HD styles from text descriptions. The skill handles mode selection, model configuration, and crop settings to ensure consistent, game-ready output. It supports style continuity through reference assets and precise asset editing workflows. Developers can generate sprites for platformers, top-down games, and other sprite-based projects without leaving their code editor. When paired with the SpriteCook MCP server, agents can autonomously produce animation-ready assets and export them directly to game engines.
