SVG Icon Maker

Convert raster images to colorful SVG using
@neplex/vectorizer
.

Output Directory

All files saved to workspace with timestamped folders (format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH-mm-ss-SSSZ
):
<workspace>/svg-output/
└── <timestamp>/              # e.g., 2026-01-27T02-13-38-811Z
    ├── reference.png         # Generated reference image
    ├── icon.svg              # Color SVG output
    └── icon_preview.png      # Preview for comparison

Prerequisites

bash
cd <workspace>
npm init -y
npm install @neplex/vectorizer sharp

Workflow

Step 1: Generate Reference Image

Use
generate_image
tool, save to
svg-output
root first (or directly to output folder if managed manually):
bash
# Generate image, then move to proper folder later or keep in root for processing
Prompt template:
"[subject] avatar, high fidelity vector illustration, clear line style, 
black closed outlines, flat uniform colors, no gradients, 
white background, distinct separation between colors"

Step 2: Convert to Color SVG

Run the conversion script directly from skill resources (no copying needed):
bash
node .agent/skills/svg-icon-maker/script/convert-template.js <input-file> [output-dir]
Example:
bash
# Using default output directory (./svg-output)
node .agent/skills/svg-icon-maker/script/convert-template.js ./my-image.png

# Specifying custom output directory
node .agent/skills/svg-icon-maker/script/convert-template.js ./my-image.png ./custom-output
Key Features:
  • 4-Corner Flood Fill: Removes background starting from all corners to handle split backgrounds.
  • Inner Detail Protection: Preserves white/light details inside the subject (e.g., eyes).
  • Auto-Threshold: Adapts to the specific background color found at the corners.
  • Timestamped Output: Automatically creates folders with format
    YYYY-MM-DDTHH-mm-ss-SSSZ
    .

Step 3: Verify & Compare

bash
ls -la <workspace>/svg-output/
Use
view_file
to compare
reference.png
with
icon_preview.png
.
