What is it?

Banana Claude turns a plain-language request into a planned image workflow on Google's Nano Banana models (Nano Banana 2 Lite, Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana Pro). It acts as a creative director: it works out the intent, picks the right domain, builds the prompt and shows you the plan before any paid request.

You can generate, edit one thing while protecting identity and brand details, continue a session, compare up to three prompts across three models, and have Claude review the result for crop, copy and artefacts. A typeset step adds exact text, fonts and logos locally when spelling matters.

It installs disabled on purpose because generation costs money, and every paid call needs your approval.
