Symbolic image composition

Reuse AI-generated assets in deterministic visual explainers.

Use Arka’s local compositor when the layout is reusable and only the assets need to change:

arka symbolic-image comparison \
  --left ai-first.png --right data-first.png \
  --left-title "AI FIRST" --right-title "DATA FIRST" \
  --output comparison.png

This uses Pillow locally, so it spends zero image-generation tokens. Symbolic rules handle panel sizing, labels, dividers, and consistent layout; AI can be used once to create the underlying illustrations and those assets can then be reused across many explainers.
