Background Removal

Remove image backgrounds via rembg — single-pass, two-pass cleanup, batch mode, and a KDE Dolphin right-click integration.

Built as a Claude Code wrapper around the Quick-RMBG CLI.

Skills

• remove-background — single-pass removal of one image
• remove-background-two-pass — two passes for cleaner edges (hair, low-contrast backgrounds)
• remove-background-batch — process a directory of images
• refine-mask-interactive — iterative cleanup until satisfied
• install-dolphin-action — install KDE Dolphin right-click service menu
• uninstall-dolphin-action — remove the Dolphin service menu
• configure-rmbg — edit ~/.config/quick-rmbg/config.json (default model, ROCm gfx_version, etc.)
• install-rembg — install / upgrade the underlying quick-rmbg CLI via pipx or uv
• list-rmbg-models — quick reference of available rembg models

Installation

claude plugins install background-removal@danielrosehill

After install, run the install-rembg skill once to put quick-rmbg on PATH (heavy first-run: rembg downloads ~150 MB of model weights). On KDE, run install-dolphin-action to wire up right-click integration.

Dependencies

• Python 3.10+, pipx or uv
• rembg[cli] (auto-installed by the install skill)
• KDE Plasma 6 (or 5) for the Dolphin integration — optional
