Agentic Image Generation
DAIR.AI Academy published a tutorial on using Claude Codeās image generator plugin to create, edit, and iteratively improve images through an agentic loop. The workflow demonstrates how agents can autonomously fetch content, extract concepts, and generate visuals with no manual steps.
End-to-end agentic workflow: Claude Code fetches an article, understands the content, crafts detailed image generation prompts, calls the Gemini API, and saves results automatically, with no copying, no tool-switching, and no manual intervention required.
Generate-annotate-refine loop: By combining the image generator with the Playground plugin, users can build an interactive annotation interface. This enables a visual feedback cycle where you annotate generated images and feed corrections back to the agent for iterative refinement.
Practical use cases: The tutorial demonstrates creating infographics from blog posts (using Anthropicās āBuilding Effective Agentsā as an example), along with product mockups, logos, social media graphics, diagrams, and image editing tasks.
Accessible setup: The plugin uses a free Gemini API key from Google AI Studio and installs through the DAIR.AI Academy Plugins marketplace for Claude Code, making it easy for developers to get started with agentic image generation.
