## Description

<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:BEGIN -->
Create a MycroZineGeneratorShape - an interactive tool on the canvas that allows users to generate complete 8-page mini-zines from a topic/prompt.

5-phase iterative workflow:
1. Ideation: User discusses content with Claude (conversational)
2. Drafts: Claude generates 8 draft pages using Gemini, spawns on canvas
3. Feedback: User gives spatial feedback on each page
4. Finalization: Claude integrates feedback into final versions
5. Print: Aggregate into single-page printable (2x4 grid)

Key requirements:
- Always use Gemini for image generation (latest model)
- Store completed zines as templates for reprinting
- Individual image shapes spawned on canvas for spatial feedback
- Single-page print layout (all 8 pages on one 8.5"x11" sheet)

References mycro-zine repo at /home/jeffe/Github/mycro-zine for layout utilities and prompt templates.
