Summary
Allow users to trigger custom image generation agents from the Gallery instead of navigating to the custom agents menu. The Illustrate action could display an agent selector when eligible custom agents are added to the chat.
Expected behavior
When image generation agents are added to the chat, clicking Illustrate in the Gallery should open a menu containing the base Illustrator and any added agents that produce images. If no eligible custom agents are added, Illustrate should retain its current default behavior.
Actual behavior
The Gallery provides Illustrate, Video, and Background actions, but custom image agents must be triggered separately from the custom agents menu.
Steps to reproduce
- Enable or configure one or more custom agents that produce images.
- Add the custom image generation agents to a chat.
- Open the Gallery menu.
- Attempt to select a custom image agent from the Illustrate action.
- Observe that no custom image agent selector is available.

Additional context
Suggested implementation: clicking Illustrate opens an agent selection menu only when eligible image generation agents have been added to the chat. The menu should include the base Illustrator and all added agents that produce images; otherwise, Illustrate should run normally.

[2026-08-10T04:49:39.040Z] wiishywaashii: Hello again! So, I've been messing around with the custom agents for making pictures, and something I think would make things a bit more convenient is like...a section for your custom image agents (once enabled) to be able to generate stuff from the gallery menu.
I know we've got the illustrate, video, and background buttons, but it kinda makes sense in my head if all the picture stuff could be in one place to streamline the process a bit more instead of having to flick down to the custom agents menu if I wanted to manually punch out something? Thanks!

[2026-08-10T04:51:37.399Z] wiishywaashii: Like i dont reaalllyyy know how this would be implemented but I think it'd be kinda nice to have. Especially if you have multiple custom thingies and theres like, a different button or selection drop down for it?

[2026-08-10T05:36:41.397Z] Marinara: I can make it so if you have image generation agents added to the chat and click Illustrate, you choose which agent triggers from a menu.

[2026-08-10T05:37:01.581Z] Marinara: The base Illustrator or any other agent you added that produces images.

[2026-08-10T05:37:18.526Z] Marinara: Only opens up if such agents are added, otherwise defaults to Illustrate.
