# Image Compressor
Compresses images using best available tool (sips → cwebp → ImageMagick → Sharp).
## Script Directory
Scripts in `scripts/` subdirectory. Replace `${SKILL_DIR}` with this SKILL.md's directory path.
| Script | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `scripts/main.ts` | Image compression CLI |
## Preferences (EXTEND.md)
Use Bash to check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):
```bash
# Check project-level first
test -f .baoyu-skills/baoyu-compress-image/EXTEND.md && echo "project"
# Then user-level (cross-platform: $HOME works on macOS/Linux/WSL)
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-compress-image/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"
```

**EXTEND.md Supports**: Default format | Default quality | Keep original preference
## Usage
```bash
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts <input> [options]
```
## Options
| Option | Short | Description | Default |
|--------|-------|-------------|---------|
| `<input>` | | File or directory | Required |
| `--output` | `-o` | Output path | Same path, new ext |
| `--format` | `-f` | webp, png, jpeg | webp |
| `--quality` | `-q` | Quality 0-100 | 80 |
| `--keep` | `-k` | Keep original | false |
| `--recursive` | `-r` | Process subdirs | false |
| `--json` | | JSON output | false |
## Examples
```bash
# Single file → WebP (replaces original)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts image.png
# Keep PNG format
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts image.png -f png --keep
# Directory recursive
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts ./images/ -r -q 75
# JSON output
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts image.png --json
```
**Output**:
```
image.png → image.webp (245KB → 89KB, 64% reduction)
```
