my module-info.java

module hackstyle {
    requires javafx.controls;
    requires jnativehook;
    requires reflections;
    requires java.xml.bind;
    requires java.desktop;
    requires java.logging;

    opens hackstyle.scripts to java.xml.bind;
    exports hackstyle;
}

reflections and jnativehook are automatic modules I added add-module-info and create-runtime-image goals trying to fix it but I keep getting "Error: automatic module cannot be used with jlink: reflections from … " when I remove these dependencies from <dependencies> tag I get errors saying reflections is not a library… Did I miss a step?
