Typical run estimate
One Replicate image charge and usually 2-4 min
Estimates describe the saved recipe, not a price guarantee. Confirm current provider pricing and approve any spend before generation. Your coding agent may have its own fees or usage limits. Never paste API keys into chat.
Included assets
The published package includes its agent instructions, input contract, and quality rules, plus 7 viewable asset references below. Reference media teaches the recipe; it is not a new result for your input.

The exact prompt, GPT Image 2 label, guide, and six examples were gathered through the creator's Android Instagram comment and DM flow and visually checked. The guide did not include the raw input photo, so the inset and smoke fixture use a clearly documented representative Pexels portrait by Philip Boakye (photo 2698918); no provider generation was run.

A run pinned to the source photo, exact gathered prompt, and chosen model route.
Step 02
The image and complete provider contract checked locally.
Step 03 · approval · provider
One black-and-white old-money editorial image from the selected Replicate model.
Step 04 · approval
Automatic file checks plus an actual visual review.
Proof & quality
Judge timeless black-and-white styling, low-angle portrait composition, classic-roadster detail, soft daylight, deep contrast, and tactile film grain against six gathered examples.

# Wiggly Old Money Shot Format This runnable Repo preserves the exact prompt and six transformation examples gathered from @skaigenerated. It turns one portrait into a timeless black-and-white old-money editorial beside a classic roadster through Replicate. Run from `v3`: ```bash npm install npm run format:skai-image -- smoke --format=old-money-shot npm run format:skai-image -- init --format=old-money-shot --run=my-old-money --input=/absolute/path/to/photo.jpg npm run format:skai-image -- validate --format=old-money-shot --run=my-old-money npm run format:skai-image -- estimate --format=old-money-shot --run=my-old-money ``` Generation requires `REPLICATE_API_TOKEN` and explicit approval: ```bash npm run format:skai-image -- render --format=old-money-shot --run=my-old-money --approve-paid ``` View the output, record visual notes with `inspect --visual-pass --review-notes="..."`, then use `finalize --approve-final`. Model routes: - Economy: `google/nano-banana-2-lite` - Default: `google/nano-banana-2` - Premium alternative: `google/nano-banana-pro` - Source model: `openai/gpt-image-2` No Replicate proof call was made while packaging this Repo. The six included source examples and guide are the proof artifacts.
--- name: wiggly-old-money-shot description: Transform one portrait into a timeless black-and-white old-money editorial beside a classic roadster using the exact gathered SKAI prompt. --- # Old Money Shot Use the packaged runner and prompt. Do not call Replicate separately or create another render path. Ask one short question first: > Which portrait should I turn into an Old Money Shot? Use Nano Banana 2 by default, Nano Banana 2 Lite for economy, or Nano Banana Pro for a premium alternative. Use GPT Image 2 only when the user requests the source-model route. ```bash npm run format:skai-image -- check --format=old-money-shot npm run format:skai-image -- init --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> --input=<absolute-image-path> npm run format:skai-image -- validate --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> npm run format:skai-image -- estimate --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> npm run format:skai-image -- render --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> --approve-paid npm run format:skai-image -- inspect --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> npm run format:skai-image -- inspect --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> --visual-pass --review-notes="<specific observations>" npm run format:skai-image -- finalize --format=old-money-shot --run=<id> --approve-final ``` Hard rules: - Preserve the subject's recognizable identity and contemplative three-quarter gaze. - Keep the low camera angle, classic roadster, open-collar shirt, tailored pants, and relaxed styling. - Keep the result monochrome, deeply contrasted, softly lit, visibly grainy, and editorial rather than glossy or modern. - Validate before spending. - Never generate without `--approve-paid`. - Persist and resume the same prediction ID. - Never exceed three attempts. - View the actual output and record notes before `--approve-final`. - Never print, store, or commit `REPLICATE_API_TOKEN`.
