Output And Evidence
- Write workflow artifacts under
output/alicloud-solution-content-article-illustrator/<topic-slug>/. - Save at least:
source.md,outline.md, one prompt file, generated images,article.with-images.md, anddelivery-report.md. - Keep evidence for prompt-before-generation ordering and any edit pass used during repair.
Prerequisites
- A source Markdown article.
- A generation backend that satisfies
references/backend-contract.md. - If you want repository-default behavior, prefer
alicloud-ai-image-qwen-imageandalicloud-ai-image-qwen-image-edit. - Optional
EXTEND.mdpreferences at project or user scope.
Workflow
- Pre-check preferences and references, including project-level or user-level
EXTEND.md. - Analyze the source Markdown article and identify candidate illustration positions.
- Confirm settings in one batch: Type, Density, Style, optional Language, and output size.
- Choose or recommend a backend and build
outline.md. - Save prompt files before any generation step.
- Use the selected generation backend for first-pass images. Recommend
alicloud-ai-image-qwen-imageby default. - If needed, use the selected edit backend for one repair pass per image. Recommend
alicloud-ai-image-qwen-image-editby default. - Write
article.with-images.mdwith relativeimages/...Markdown links. - Save evidence and produce
delivery-report.md.
