AI Image Generation

Generate images from text prompts using OpenAI GPT Image (gpt-image-2 / gpt-image-1 / variants) or Stability AI (SD 3.5 Large).

Tool Location

  • Script: ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py
  • Env file: ~/.agents/tools/.env (contains OPENAI_API_KEY and STABILITY_API_KEY)

Available OpenAI image models (verified live via /v1/models 2026-05-15)

Model IDNotes
gpt-image-2Flagship. Released 2026-04-21. Best prompt adherence, best photorealism. Default when image quality matters.
gpt-image-2-2026-04-21Pinned dated variant of gpt-image-2
gpt-image-1.5Intermediate release between 1 and 2
gpt-image-1-miniSmaller/cheaper gpt-image-1 variant — use for batch/draft generation where cost matters
gpt-image-1Original gpt-image. Still works; superseded by gpt-image-2.
chatgpt-image-latestAlways-current alias of the model ChatGPT.com uses (currently gpt-image-2-class). Use when you want "whatever ChatGPT uses today"
dall-e-3Legacy fallback. Different quality semantics (standard/hd, not low/medium/high).

Pass any of these to --model. The script branches on gpt-image* for the quality/format handling, so all gpt-image-* variants work out of the box.

Default in the script is now gpt-image-2 (the flagship) — pass --model gpt-image-1-mini for cheap batch/draft work.

Quick Usage

Generate with OpenAI gpt-image-2 (flagship)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "a sunset over mountains, oil painting style" \
  --output ./sunset.png \
  --model gpt-image-2 \
  --quality high

Generate with default (gpt-image-2)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "a sunset over mountains, oil painting style" \
  --output ./sunset.png

High quality

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "modern logo design for a tech company" \
  --output ./logo.png \
  --size 1024x1024 \
  --quality high

Wide format (good for blog covers, banners)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "abstract digital art with blue tones" \
  --output ./banner.png \
  --size 1536x1024

Tall format (good for mobile, stories)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "portrait of a futuristic city" \
  --output ./city.png \
  --size 1024x1536

Transparent background (icons, logos)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "a minimalist cat icon, flat design" \
  --output ./icon.png \
  --background transparent

Generate with Stability AI (SD 3.5 Large)

python ~/.agents/tools/generate-image.py \
  --prompt "watercolor painting of a garden" \
  --output ./garden.png \
  --provider stability
