codia-image-upscale
Runtime And Auth
Use the local codia-design CLI for this feature. Before calling the API, verify that codia-design is available. If it is missing and global npm installs are allowed, install it with npm install -g @codia-ai/codia-design-cli. Then check codia-design auth status; if it is not connected, run codia-design auth login --platform codex or bind an API key with codia-design auth set --api-key api_key_xxx. Never print API keys or ~/.codia/design-skills/config.json.
AI enlarges image resolution and improves clarity.
