# Blink Image Generation

Generate images from text descriptions or edit existing images.
All images are charged to your Blink workspace credits.

## Generate an image from text
```bash
blink ai image "A serene mountain lake at golden hour, photorealistic"
```

## Generate with a specific model
```bash
blink ai image "A futuristic city skyline" --model fal-ai/nano-banana-pro
```

## Generate multiple images at once
```bash
blink ai image "A cozy coffee shop interior" --model fal-ai/nano-banana --n 4
```

## Generate with a specific count and model
```bash
blink ai image "Product photo of a red sneaker on white background" --model fal-ai/nano-banana-pro --n 2
```

> Note: Output format (jpeg/webp/png) is determined by the model, not a parameter.

## Edit an existing image (image-to-image)
```bash
blink ai image-edit "Make this look like a watercolor painting" "https://example.com/photo.jpg"
```

## Edit with high-quality model
```bash
blink ai image-edit "Add snow to this landscape" "https://example.com/landscape.jpg" --model fal-ai/nano-banana-pro/edit
```

## Edit a LOCAL file (user uploaded a photo via Telegram/Discord/Slack)
When a user sends you a photo, OpenClaw saves it to disk. Use `blink ai animate` for local files (it handles upload automatically), or use `blink ai image-edit` with a URL:
```bash
# Animate/transform a local file directly (handles upload automatically)
blink ai animate "Make this a professional studio headshot with dark background" /data/agents/main/agent/photo.jpg

# Or use image-edit if you have a public URL
blink ai image-edit "Make this a professional studio headshot with dark background" "https://example.com/photo.jpg"
```

## Find where OpenClaw saved an attachment
OpenClaw downloads attachments to the agent working directory. Check recent files:
```bash
ls -lt /data/agents/main/agent/ | head -10
```

## Models available
| Model | Best for |
|-------|---------|
| `fal-ai/nano-banana` | Default. Fast text→image. |
| `fal-ai/nano-banana-pro` | Higher quality text→image. |
| `fal-ai/nano-banana/edit` | Edit/transform existing images. |
