Markup-guided image edits with GPT Image 2.6 on varg: draw circles, boxes, arrows and short notes on a transparent PNG the same size as the source (scripts/markup.py turns a JSON list of shapes into that PNG, a preview and the prompt lines), upload it, then edit with provider_options.fal.markup_image_url and a prompt written per colour ("Red circle: … Blue circle: … Change nothing outside the marks."). Includes the measured example (two changes, the rest of the frame kept), how to check what…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Markup edits with GPT Image 2.6
Instead of describing where a change goes, you draw it. GPT Image 2.6 takes a second, transparent PNG
with only your marks on it, and the prompt says what each mark means. OpenAI: "You can now send a
marked-up image to the API to show exactly where you want an edit"
([@OpenAIDevs](https://x.com/OpenAIDevs/status/2118124761867845847)). OpenAI's guide: keep the original
as the first input, put the annotations on "a separate transparent PNG", send it as the markup, and
describe the changes in the prompt; "Markup applies to the first input image. Additional images serve
as references" ([OpenAI image guide](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/image-generation)).
On varg the field is `provider_options.fal.markup_image_url`; fal: "Transparent PNG containing only
annotations (circles, arrows, notes) that guide the edit of the first image", and it "must match input
image dimensions".
## The measured example (2026-11-05 on varg)
Idea by @IHayato, who drew a red and a blue circle on an illustration and asked
「赤丸にサンタ帽、青丸の本はプレゼントに」 ("a Santa hat in the red circle; the book in the blue circle becomes a

How to install
mdr add varghq/skills/gpt-image-markup-edit@sha256:0e7e4676b7e05285The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
