Individual skill
generate-alts
Write alt text for the images in the Sanity dataset. A script lists every image usage (document, field, current alt, the asset's title/description/alt text, a caption, the section heading and the text around it), downloads one small preview per asset into a local cache (`.alts/`, never the same image twice), the agent looks at each image and proposes one alt per usage in the site's content language (or marks it decorative), then the script builds an HTML page where the user reviews, edits and approves them and exports `approved.json`; approved alts go into drafts with a dry-run-first script (`--apply` to write). Use when the user asks to "generate/write/fill alt texts", "images without alt", "alt audit", "accessibility of images", "describe our images", after a content import or migration, or before an accessibility or SEO review. Works on Nexity projects (`img` objects) and on similar Sanity sites.

# Generate alt texts
Flow: **scan → fetch → describe → report → the user reviews → apply (dry run, then
`--apply`) → scan again.** Nothing is written to the dataset before the user has approved
the alts in the report and said go.
## What the site reads
Every image in the starter is an `img` object (`studio/src/sanity/schemaTypes/objects/img.tsx`):
`image` (the asset, `image.asset._ref`), `responsive[]` (art-directed variants that share
the same alt) and **`alt`**. The web component (`web/src/ui/components/image/index.tsx`)
renders `alt` prop `||` `img.alt` `||` `image.asset->altText` `||` `""`:
