// Required
prompt: string; // Text description of the image to generate
// Optional with defaults
model?: string; // Default: "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell-Free"
width?: number; // Default: 1024 (min: 128, max: 2048)
height?: number; // Default: 768 (min: 128, max: 2048)
steps?: number; // Default: 1 (min: 1, max: 100)
n?: number; // Default: 1 (max: 4)
response_format?: string; // Default: "b64_json" (options: ["b64_json", "url"])
image_path?: string; // Optional: Path to save the generated image as PNG
}
Minimal Request Example
Only the prompt is required:
{
"name": "generate_image",
"arguments": {
"prompt": "A serene mountain landscape at sunset"
}
}
Full Request Example with Image Saving
Override any defaults and specify a path to save the image:
{
"name": "generate_image",
"arguments": {
"prompt": "A serene mountain landscape at sunset",
"width": 1024,
"height": 768,
"steps": 20,
"n": 1,
"response_format": "b64_json",
"model": "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell-Free",
"image_path": "/path/to/save/image.png"
}
}
Response Format
The response will be a JSON object containing:
{
"id": string, // Generation ID
"model": string, // Model used
"object": "list",
"data": [
{
"timings": {
"inference": number // Time taken for inference
},
"index": number, // Image index
"b64_json": string // Base64 encoded image data (if response_format is "b64_json")
// OR
"url": string // URL to generated image (if response_format is "url")
}
]
}
If image_path was provided and the save was successful, the response will include confirmation of the save location.
