Comi Cog - Comics & Manga Powered by CellCog

Create visual stories with AI - from manga pages to webtoons to comic strips with consistent characters.

How to Use

For your first CellCog task in a session, read the cellcog skill for the full SDK reference — file handling, chat modes, timeouts, and more.

OpenClaw (fire-and-forget):

result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    notify_session_key="agent:main:main",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)

All agents except OpenClaw (blocks until done):

from cellcog import CellCogClient
client = CellCogClient(agent_provider="openclaw|cursor|claude-code|codex|...")
result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)
print(result["message"])

Why Comi-Cog is Complex Work

Comics are one of the most demanding creative outputs:

• Character Consistency: Same character must look identical across dozens of panels
• Visual Storytelling: Every panel needs composition, flow, and meaning
• Sequential Art: Panels must read naturally, guide the eye, create rhythm
• Text Integration: Speech bubbles, sound effects, narration boxes
• Style Coherence: Art style must stay consistent throughout

This is complex work. CellCog excels here because it maintains context across panels and pages, ensuring your characters look like themselves in every frame.

Character Consistency

The magic of comi-cog: your characters stay consistent.

When you describe a character, CellCog maintains their appearance across all panels:

Good character description:

"Character - Luna:

• Age: Early 20s, petite build
• Hair: Long silver hair with bangs, usually in a braid
• Eyes: Large, purple, expressive
• Outfit: Dark blue witch robes with star embroidery
• Distinguishing: Small mole under left eye, always wears moon earring
• Expression range: Usually serious but has a warm smile"

What this enables:

• Same face structure across all panels
• Consistent outfit details
• Recognizable from any angle
• Emotional range while staying "her"

Comic Styles

Page Layouts

Request specific layouts:

Chat Mode for Comics

Use "agent" for most comic work. Individual pages and strips execute well in agent mode.

Use "agent team" for narrative complexity - full webtoon episodes, multi-page fight sequences, or when you need story and art direction working together.

Example Prompts

Action manga page:

"Create a manga page - the hero's power awakens:

5 panels:

1. Hero on knees, defeated, rain falling
2. Close-up: tear falls, mixes with rain
3. Memory flash: people they're fighting for
4. Eyes snap open - now glowing
5. Full panel: standing, energy swirling, clothes/hair flowing upward

Style: Shonen manga, heavy contrast, speed lines Mood: Despair transforming to determination

Hero design: Teen boy, spiky black hair, torn school uniform"

Webtoon romance moment:

"Create a vertical webtoon sequence (6 panels):

Scene: First accidental hand touch

1. Both reaching for same book on shelf
2. Hands touch - close-up
3. Both freeze - side by side reaction
4. Eye contact - soft blush on both
5. Both quickly pull away, embarrassed
6. Walking opposite directions, both smiling to themselves

Style: Soft, pastel colors, gentle line work

Characters:

• She: Long dark hair, glasses, oversized sweater
• He: Messy light brown hair, tall, kind eyes"

Comic strip:

"Create a 4-panel comic strip about a cat:

Joke: Cat demands food. Human gives food. Cat doesn't eat it, just wanted attention.

Panel 1: Cat screaming at empty bowl Panel 2: Human rushing to fill it Panel 3: Cat walks away from full bowl Panel 4: Cat sitting on human's laptop, satisfied

Style: Simple, cute, expressive faces"

Tips for Better Comics

1. Describe characters thoroughly: The more detail on character design, the better consistency.

2. Specify panel layout: "4 panels in a grid" vs "large panel top, 3 small below" changes everything.

3. Include emotions: Tell us what characters are feeling in each panel.

4. Think about flow: Where does the reader's eye go? Composition matters.

5. Sound effects matter: "Include SFX for the punch" adds manga authenticity.

6. Reference real comics: "Like One Piece style" or "Saga vibes" gives clear direction.
