study-reference

Structured prompt template that guides an AI agent through analyzing a reference image and creating generative art studies inspired by it.

Arguments

Behavior

When invoked, the prompt provides the AI agent with a structured study workflow:

1. Analyze — Use analyze_reference to get the image with a structured analysis framework
2. Study — Fill in the analysis: composition structure, color palette, visual rhythm, mood, and technique
3. Save analysis — Use update_reference_analysis to persist the structured analysis
4. Extract palette — Use extract_palette to identify dominant colors
5. Create studies — Create 2-3 generative sketches inspired by specific qualities from the reference
6. Compare — Evaluate how well each study captures the reference's key qualities

Example usage

Use the study-reference prompt with:
  referenceId: "monet-water-lilies"
  focus: "palette"

Output

The prompt guides the agent to use MCP tools in sequence:

1. analyze_reference — get reference with analysis framework
2. update_reference_analysis — save structured observations
3. extract_palette — identify dominant colors
4. create_sketch (repeated) — create inspired studies
5. compare_sketches — evaluate studies against each other
