What's inside
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
This workspace skill was taught from an explicit teach draft captured in /Users/songliang/workspace/Understudy/understudy.
Overall Goal
Produce and send a clean transparent cutout image for a requested person via Telegram.
Staged Workflow
Obtain a suitable portrait image for the requested person, using a provided local file or direct image URL when available, otherwise finding a clear single-subject portrait from an acceptable source.
Notes: Prefer a source image with minimal occlusion and enough separation from the background for reliable cutout.
Open the chosen image in an editor that can remove backgrounds and produce a transparent PNG.
Notes: The demo used Pixelmator Pro for the background-removal step.
Remove the background and verify that the subject is isolated cleanly on transparency before delivery.
Notes: Do not send obvious cutout failures; visually confirm the result first.
Open the target Telegram chat, attach the processed transparent image, and send it with no caption by default.
Notes: Captionless delivery is the confirmed default behavior.
GUI Reference Path
The GUI reference path below is for replay and grounding reference only.
Open a suitable portrait result from the image grid.
target: image result tile showing the requested person in the Google Images results grid | app: Google Chrome | scope: Google Images results page
Open the source image in Pixelmator Pro or another installed editor with visible background-removal capability.
reference: [preferred] [gui/gui_click] | when: When performing the native desktop editing flow shown in the demo. | notes: The demonstrated editing path was desktop-native rather than browser-native. | target: menu item "Remove Background" in the image editor | app: Pixelmator Pro | scope: editor menu or command surface
Run the editor's background-removal action and verify that a transparent result is shown.
reference: [preferred] [gui/gui_click] | when: When using Pixelmator Pro or a similar native editor UI. | notes: This is the core transformation step demonstrated in the recording. | target: menu item "Remove Background" in the image editor | app: Pixelmator Pro | scope: editor menu or command surface
Open Telegram, choose the target chat, attach the processed transparent image, and send it without a caption by default.
reference: [preferred] [gui/gui_click] | when: When using Telegram desktop for delivery. | notes: Observed delivery route in the demo, with confirmed default caption behavior. | target: paperclip icon button next to the message input in Telegram | app: Telegram | scope: chat composer
Tool Route Options
These route options are references only. Choose the best route at runtime based on the current surface, available capabilities, and the need to preserve the same externally visible result.
Obtain a suitable portrait image for the requested person, using a provided local file or direct image URL when available, otherwise finding a clear single-subject portrait from an acceptable source.
[preferred] [skill/taught-person-photo-cutout-bc88ec] Use the existing end-to-end workspace skill when the request matches this workflow closely.
When: When the task is simply to create a person cutout and send it in Telegram.
Notes: Best-fit reusable route in the current capability snapshot.
