@U0AD74K18T1 I want a new agent listening on this projects channel - not only mentions, all messages.
This is regarding new project: coverer: album art and app icon / logo creator
First we need repo (in shared org, invite me as owner) and docs: roadmap.
What we are building:
• UI for creating graphic designs.
• starts simple: we have a canvas with defined art size.
• We likely use SVG, just edit elements inside.
• We can paste graphics in (or drop images inside), resize
• We track layers. Every pasted thing is its own layer
• We can generate layers from inside the app with nano banana + openai. Or even different providers to allow us to use for example models that support alpha channels and nice text rendering. Researching this will be the first task
• We can add text, shapes, etc. (support all svg elements and stylings)
• For properties of elements, it can start simple - having 1:1 svg props, css props

For now just create repo and docs - readme, roadmap and result of the generator models research.

Good, the shared org is polarium-org. Let me research image generation models with transparency/alpha support and good text rendering, then create the repo.

Now I have enough research. Let me create the repo and docs.

Now create the GitHub repo and invite Marian:

Marian's already a member. Let me also set up the channel listening config.

Now I need to create a new agent for this channel and bind it. The channel ID from the message is C0ADJLT355Z.

I see — listenAll isn't a valid binding field. I need to use Slack channel config with requireMention: false instead.

Now let me update memory with this new project:

All done. Here's the summary:

:whitecheckmark: Repo created: https://github.com/polarium-org/coverer (private, polarium-org — you're already a member)

:whitecheckmark: Docs committed:

README.md — project overview
docs/ROADMAP.md — 5-phase roadmap (canvas → import/export → AI gen → advanced editing → polish)
docs/GENERATORRESEARCH.md — full research on image gen models
:white
check_mark: Agent configured: "Coverer" agent bound to #project-coverer, listening to all messages (no mention required)

Key research takeaway: OpenAI's gpt-image-1 is the only model with native transparency support (background: "transparent" parameter) — critical for layer compositing. For text rendering, Nano Banana Pro is best-in-class. Recommended strategy is multi-provider with background removal pipeline as fallback for models without alpha support.

Gateway is restarting now to pick up the new agent config. The Coverer agent should be live in #project-coverer momentarily.

Config applied successfully, Coverer agent is live in #project-coverer. :+1:
