Convert classical Chinese verses into image generation prompts — ink painting (default), stipple, or tech-noir variant. Use when visualizing Yilin, I Ching, Tang poetry, or classical Chinese text; for video motion prompts, see image-to-scene.

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

# Verse → Image Prompt

Convert a classical Chinese verse into an English image generation prompt, following validated composition rules developed across 4,096 images for [SixLines.online](https://sixlines.online).

## Mode Selection

- **Default (ink painting):** Classical ink painting aesthetic.
- **Stipple (`--stipple` flag):** The **production matrix skin** — luminous golden-age sci-fi stipple. This is the actual style of the 4,096 matrix-skin images on SixLines.online (ADR-173). It reuses the ink-painting scene verbatim and only swaps the render suffix.
- **Tech-noir (`--tech-noir` flag):** An **experimental** phosphor-green CRT cyberpunk reinterpretation. Not the production matrix look — it re-renders the scene in a tech register. Use only when you specifically want that alternative.

Routing:
- `--stipple`, or "matrix skin", "stipple", "phosphor stipple", "the actual matrix images" → **Stipple Mode**
- `--tech-noir`, or "tech-noir", "CRT cyberpunk", "phosphor-green reinterpretation" → **Tech-Noir Mode**
- otherwise → **Ink Painting Mode**

Note: "matrix skin" maps to **Stipple**, not Tech-Noir — the shipped matrix images are stipple.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/verse-to-prompt@sha256:7d0d852c562fc804

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
