About this skill

The problem

Replacing backgrounds for products, people, or pets often becomes a manual bottleneck in e-commerce images, posters, and social content: masking takes time, lighting can look unnatural, and outputs still need checks for watermarks and resolution. This skill turns that workflow into one asynchronous image task: provide subject_image and bg_img, then receive a watermark-free image, a quality report, and a presentable page. It is useful when generating several variants for manual review.

How it works

The core flow submits a task and polls for results:

  • Input validation: accepts a public image URL or standard Base64, then runs basic compliance checks.
  • Async submission: calls execute_task.py to start the job and returns only task_id without blocking.
  • Polling: calls query_task.py to check status and immediately surfaces key fields on each round.
  • Quality assessment: reports score and boolean checks for subject retention, watermark-free output, high resolution, and lighting consistency.

Boundaries

It fits clear, well-edged subjects and backgrounds with compatible lighting. If the score is low, use a sharper subject image or a more compatible background. If the subject is incomplete, heavily occluded, or the background lighting is clearly mismatched, results may be unstable. AppKey-less simulation is a preview only and does not represent real generation.

Use Cases

  • E-commerce designer creates autumn main images for white sneakers by replacing the background with a fallen-leaf street and checking the quality score.
  • Campaign operator produces a poster by compositing an indoor half-body selfie into a Paris Eiffel Tower night background and verifying edge and lighting consistency.
  • Pet content account makes a cover by placing a cat or dog subject into a chosen landscape background and confirming subject retention without watermark.
  • Asset editor processes a product image by submitting the subject and background as Base64, polling task_id, and exporting the watermark-free image.

Best For

  • E-commerce designers who change product background images and need multiple background variants with quality scores.
  • Campaign operators who create people or brand posters and need realistic scene compositing with consistent lighting.
  • Pet content operators who place pet subjects into landscape or holiday backgrounds and need watermark-free exports.
  • Engineers integrating ShowAPI who need async task submission, task_id polling, and quality report parsing.
