Nib turns articles into consistent character illustrations
Nib is a native macOS app that turns an idea or article into a set of white-background, hand-drawn editorial illustrations. The same supplied character appears across the whole piece, so the images look like one coherent set instead of unrelated one-off . It is meant for blog posts, docs, and similar writing where stock art feels generic and manual ing often makes the character change from image to image.
Nib sends the character as a reference for every generation and keeps each image focused on one clear idea. It runs on Macs with macOS 14 or newer and can be installed with ` --cask caezium/tap/nib`. It can also be added as a skill for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Gemini with `npx skills add caezium/nib --skill nib`.
The tool is free, , and released under the MIT license.
