Makes composition study thumbnails: small four-value grey studies with blocky shapes and no detail. Each study is labelled with the composition it tries. Drawn by a picture model with any words set in real type afterwards, so spelling is exact. Needs a FAL_KEY or a Cloudflare Workers AI key; about $0.01 to $0.02 a picture. Use when someone wants composition thumbnails, value studies, layout options for a painting or photo, or to compare compositions.

About this skill
You say
Make composition studies for a photo of a city bridge
It said back
I made eight composition studies of a city bridge, and the sheet reads cleanly. I checked it by eye: the title and all eight captions are spelled correctly, nothing is cut off, and no picture has letters or numbers in it.
Files (all in studies/):
sheet.png: the full sheet, 4 columns by 2 rowspictures/c1.pngtoc8.png: the individual studiesplan.json: the plan, so any study can be redrawn

What does a run cost?
Our 1 runs took 1 min 55 s to 1 min 55 s and $0.09 to $0.09 of API use each, in Claude Code with claude-sonnet-5-5. On a Claude plan, a run counts toward your usage instead.
Do I have to name Composition Studies to use it?
Type /composition-studies first to make sure it loads. Without it, Claude Code may judge a small job simple enough to do without the skill.
