This skill should be used when the user asks to "make an icon", "generate an icon", "create a scientific icon", "make a transparent icon", "make a minimal icon", "icon for a figure", "icon for a paper", "generate an icon set", "batch icons", "icon batch", "batch generate icons", or wants flat scientific icons (brain, neuron, DNA, EEG cap, etc.) in the Nature/Science journal style with transparent backgrounds. Generates PNG icons via the Codex CLI image_gen tool (preferred) or the OpenAI Images API (fallback), then applies transparency via a Pillow threshold by default or rembg + BiRefNet (opt-in, higher edge quality).
