Web Asset Generation

Part of Agent Skills™ by googleadsagent.ai™

Description

Web Asset Generation automates the creation of favicons, PWA icons, Open Graph images, social media meta tags, and Apple touch icons from a single source image or brand specification. The agent produces the complete set of assets required for a modern web application—across all platforms, sizes, and formats—with proper HTML meta tags and web manifest configuration.

A professional web presence requires dozens of image variants: 16x16 and 32x32 favicons, 180x180 Apple touch icons, 192x192 and 512x512 PWA icons in both regular and maskable formats, 1200x630 Open Graph images, 1200x600 Twitter cards, and platform-specific splash screens. Generating these manually is tedious and error-prone; forgetting a single variant means broken previews on a specific platform. This skill automates the entire pipeline.

Beyond icon generation, the skill produces the associated configuration: HTML <link> and <meta> tags for the document head, manifest.json for PWA support, and platform-specific meta tags for Twitter Cards, Facebook Open Graph, and LinkedIn. The output is copy-paste ready—a complete set of assets with the HTML to reference them.

Use When

• Setting up favicon and icon assets for a new web project
• Generating Open Graph images for social media sharing
• Configuring PWA manifest with proper icon sizes
• Creating social media meta tags (Twitter Cards, OG tags)
• Rebuilding assets after a brand update or redesign
• The user asks for "favicon", "OG image", "PWA icons", or "social meta tags"

How It Works

    C --> H[favicon.svg: Scalable]
    D --> I[icon-192.png + icon-512.png]

    O --> P[Complete Asset Package]

A single source asset flows through parallel generation pipelines, producing all required size variants and formats. The final step generates the HTML and manifest configuration to wire everything together.

Implementation

import sharp from "sharp";
import { writeFileSync, mkdirSync } from "fs";

interface AssetConfig {
  source: string;
  outputDir: string;
  siteName: string;
  siteUrl: string;
  themeColor: string;
  backgroundColor: string;
  description: string;
}

const ICON_SIZES = {
  "favicon-16x16.png": { width: 16, height: 16 },
  "favicon-32x32.png": { width: 32, height: 32 },
  "apple-touch-icon.png": { width: 180, height: 180 },
  "icon-192x192.png": { width: 192, height: 192 },
  "icon-512x512.png": { width: 512, height: 512 },
  "maskable-192x192.png": { width: 192, height: 192, maskable: true },
  "maskable-512x512.png": { width: 512, height: 512, maskable: true },
};

async function generateIcons(config: AssetConfig): Promise<void> {
  mkdirSync(config.outputDir, { recursive: true });
  const source = sharp(config.source);

  for (const [filename, size] of Object.entries(ICON_SIZES)) {
    let pipeline = source.clone().resize(size.width, size.height, { fit: "contain" });

    if ((size as { maskable?: boolean }).maskable) {
      const padding = Math.round(size.width * 0.1);
      pipeline = source.clone().resize(size.width - padding * 2, size.height - padding * 2, { fit: "contain" })
        .extend({ top: padding, bottom: padding, left: padding, right: padding, background: config.backgroundColor });
    }

    await pipeline.png().toFile(`${config.outputDir}/${filename}`);
  }
}

async function generateOgImage(config: AssetConfig): Promise<void> {
  const width = 1200, height = 630;
  const svg = `<svg width="${width}" height="${height}" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
    <rect width="${width}" height="${height}" fill="${config.themeColor}"/>
    <text x="50%" y="45%" text-anchor="middle" font-size="64" font-weight="bold" fill="white" font-family="system-ui">${config.siteName}</text>
    <text x="50%" y="60%" text-anchor="middle" font-size="28" fill="rgba(255,255,255,0.8)" font-family="system-ui">${config.description}</text>
  </svg>`;

  await sharp(Buffer.from(svg)).png().toFile(`${config.outputDir}/og-image.png`);
}

function generateManifest(config: AssetConfig): object {
  return {
    name: config.siteName,
    short_name: config.siteName,
    start_url: "/",
    display: "standalone",
    theme_color: config.themeColor,
    background_color: config.backgroundColor,
    icons: [
      { src: "/icon-192x192.png", sizes: "192x192", type: "image/png" },
      { src: "/icon-512x512.png", sizes: "512x512", type: "image/png" },
      { src: "/maskable-192x192.png", sizes: "192x192", type: "image/png", purpose: "maskable" },
      { src: "/maskable-512x512.png", sizes: "512x512", type: "image/png", purpose: "maskable" },
    ],
  };
}

function generateHtmlTags(config: AssetConfig): string {
  return `<!-- Favicons -->
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon-32x32.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="16x16" href="/favicon-16x16.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/apple-touch-icon.png">
<link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.json">
<meta name="theme-color" content="${config.themeColor}">

<!-- Open Graph -->
<meta property="og:type" content="website">
<meta property="og:title" content="${config.siteName}">
<meta property="og:description" content="${config.description}">
<meta property="og:image" content="${config.siteUrl}/og-image.png">
<meta property="og:url" content="${config.siteUrl}">

<!-- Twitter Card -->
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
<meta name="twitter:title" content="${config.siteName}">
<meta name="twitter:description" content="${config.description}">
<meta name="twitter:image" content="${config.siteUrl}/og-image.png">`;
}

Best Practices

• Start from an SVG source for lossless scaling across all icon sizes
• Include both regular and maskable PWA icons—Android adaptive icons crop aggressively
• Set Open Graph image dimensions to exactly 1200x630 for optimal social media display
• Add <meta name="theme-color"> for mobile browser chrome coloring
• Test OG images with platform debuggers (Facebook Sharing Debugger, Twitter Card Validator)
• Regenerate all assets when the brand identity changes—partial updates cause inconsistency
