Image-Generation

Image-Generation — ɳSelf documentation.

Feature: Image Generation

ɳClaw supports multi-provider image generation. You can generate images from text prompts through the chat interface or the API, and browse results in the image gallery.

Route: /gallery in claw-web API: POST /claw/image/generate


Supported Providers

ProviderEnv VarNotes

Set CLAW_IMAGE_PROVIDER in your .env to choose the default provider. Users can override per-request.

How It Works

  1. Send a prompt via chat or POST /claw/image/generate
  2. The request enters the job queue (np_claw.image_jobs table)
  3. The selected provider processes the request
  4. Results appear in the gallery and in the chat thread
