• Style presets — apply reusable prompt templates (editorial, blueprint, ink, risograph, etc.)
• Platform sizing — auto-resize/crop to target dimensions (YouTube, slides, blog, X, Instagram)
• Variant generation — generate N variants in parallel with contact sheet
• Edit mode — modify existing images with text instructions
• Reference images — anchor style/aesthetic from example images
• History & replay — browse past generations, replay the last one with again
• Structured logging — structured output via structlog for diagnostics
• Sentry integration — optional error tracking

Custom Presets & Platforms

Add your own presets at ~/.config/image-creator-tool/presets.yaml:

Custom platforms at ~/.config/image-creator-tool/platforms.yaml:

my-size:

User presets/platforms merge with (and can override) the bundled defaults.
