Photoshop API Composition
Build complex multi-layer compositions with the Adobe Photoshop API — the multi-stage orchestration pattern (a typical state machine has 15-20 functions), layer ordering and blending, multi-template assembly, output rendering at multiple aspect ratios from one composition, and the integration pattern that feeds Firefly-generated content into a PSD pipeline. Use whenever the user needs more than simple smart-object replacement — combining Firefly outputs with template PSDs, chaining multiple Photoshop operations, building campaign assemblers, or orchestrating end-to-end pipelines that produce final renderable assets. Encodes the production state-machine pattern used in enterprise generative campaign pipelines.

From the source SKILL.md
The orchestration pattern for production-grade campaign assembly. When the asset pipeline involves Firefly-generated content + template PSDs + multiple stages of editing + multiple output aspect ratios, you need a stateful workflow engine that coordinates many Photoshop API + Firefly calls in the right order.
What this skill does
Photoshop API Composition is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the cloud-platforms sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/photoshop-api-composition/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use whenever the user needs more than simple smart-object replacement — combining Firefly outputs with template PSDs, chaining multiple Photoshop operations, building campaign assemblers, or orchestrating end-to-end pipelines that produce final renderable assets.

When should I use the Photoshop API Composition skill?
Use Photoshop API Composition when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the cloud platforms area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Photoshop API Composition" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Photoshop API Composition skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Photoshop API Composition is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category. Learn more at
