## Use this model from an AI agent

Atlas Cloud ships three first-party integration surfaces. All three authenticate
with the same API key via the `ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY` environment variable.

### MCP server

The official MCP server (`atlascloud-mcp`) exposes this model to any
MCP-compatible host — Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Goose,
Claude Desktop. One-line install:

```bash
# Claude Code
claude mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

# OpenAI Codex CLI
codex mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

# Gemini CLI
gemini mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

export ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Then ask in plain English; the agent calls `atlas_generate_image` with `model: "atlascloud/qwen-image/edit"`.
The server fetches each model's schema and validates parameters before submitting,
so invalid requests fail fast without spending credits.

### Agent Skills

`atlas-cloud-skills` is a portable skill package (API reference, code templates in
Python / Node.js / cURL, model IDs with pricing) for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and
12+ other agents:

```bash
npx skills add AtlasCloudAI/atlas-cloud-skills
export ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Skills docs: https://www.atlascloud.ai/docs/skills

### CLI

The `atlas` binary runs Atlas Cloud from a terminal or CI script. Async media jobs
are polled and downloaded automatically (use `--no-download` when a script only
needs the output URLs):

```bash
# Install (Homebrew, npm, or shell installer)
brew install AtlasCloudAI/tap/atlascloud
# npm install -g atlascloud-cli
# curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AtlasCloudAI/cli/main/install.sh | sh

atlas auth login
atlas generate image atlascloud/qwen-image/edit -p "Your prompt here"
```

## HTTP API reference

- **Submit endpoint (POST)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateImage` — start an async generation; returns a `prediction_id`
- **Poll endpoint (GET)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}` — poll this until the prediction finishes
- **Model ID**: `atlascloud/qwen-image/edit`


## API Information

This model can be used via our HTTP API or more conveniently via our client libraries.
See the input and output schema below, as well as the usage examples.


### Input Schema

The API accepts the following input parameters:

- **`model`** (`string`, _required_):
  model name
  - Default: `"atlascloud/qwen-image/edit"`

- **`prompt`** (`string`, _required_):
  The prompt to generate an image from.

- **`image`** (`string`, _required_):
  The image to generate an image from.

- **`seed`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The random seed to use for the generation. -1 means a random seed will be used.
  - Default: `-1`

- **`enable_base64_output`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If enabled, the output will be encoded into a BASE64 string instead of a URL. This property is only available through the API.
  - Default: `false`

- **`enable_sync_mode`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If set to true, the function will wait for the image to be generated and uploaded before returning the response. It allows you to get the image directly in the response. This property is only available through the API.
  - Default: `false`



**Required Parameters Example**:

```json
{
  "model": "atlascloud/qwen-image/edit",
  "prompt": "",
  "image": ""
}
```


**Full Example**:

```json
{
  "model": "atlascloud/qwen-image/edit",
  "prompt": "",
  "image": "",
  "seed": -1,
  "enable_base64_output": false,
  "enable_sync_mode": false
}
```


### Output Schema

The API returns the following output format:


- **`created_at`** (`string`, _optional_):
  ISO timestamp of when the request was created (e.g., “2023-04-01T12:34:56.789Z”).

- **`has_nsfw_contents`** (`array[boolean]`, _optional_):
  Array of boolean values indicating NSFW detection for each output.

- **`id`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Unique identifier for the prediction, the ID of the prediction to get.

- **`model`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Model ID used for the prediction.

- **`outputs`** (`array[string]`, _optional_):
  Array of URLs to the generated content (empty when status is not completed).

- **`status`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Status of the task: created, processing, completed, or failed.

- **`urls`** (`object`, _optional_):
  Object containing related API endpoints.



**Example Response**:

```json
{
  "created_at": "",
  "has_nsfw_contents": [],
  "id": "",
  "model": "",
  "outputs": [
    ""
  ],
  "status": "",
  "urls": {}
}
```


## Usage Examples

### cURL

```bash
# Step 1: Start generation (async)
curl -X POST "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateImage" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "model": "atlascloud/qwen-image/edit",
  "prompt": "",
  "image": "",
  "seed": -1,
  "enable_base64_output": false,
  "enable_sync_mode": false
}'

# Response will contain: {"code": 200, "data": {"id": "prediction_id", "status": "processing"}}

# Step 2: Poll for result (replace {prediction_id} with the id returned above)
curl -X GET "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY"

# Keep polling until status is "completed", "succeeded" or "failed"
# When completed, outputs will contain the generated content URL(s)
```

## About this model

_Vendor-supplied description. Any pricing or endpoint mentioned below refers to_
_other platforms — use the Atlas Cloud values above._

**Qwen-Image-Edit** — a 20B MMDiT model for next-gen image edit generation. Built on 20B Qwen-Image, it brings precise bilingual text editing (Chinese & English) while preserving style, and supports both semantic and appearance-level editing.

**Key Features**:

- Semantic and Appearance Editing: Qwen-Image-Edit supports both low-level visual appearance editing (such as adding, removing, or modifying elements, requiring all other regions of the image to remain completely unchanged) and high-level visual semantic editing (such as IP creation, object rotation, and style transfer, allowing overall pixel changes while maintaining semantic consistency).

- Precise Text Editing: Qwen-Image-Edit supports bilingual (Chinese and English) text editing, allowing direct addition, deletion, and modification of text in images while preserving the original font, size, and style.

- Strong Benchmark Performance: Evaluations on multiple public benchmarks demonstrate that Qwen-Image-Edit achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in image editing tasks, establishing it as a powerful foundation model for image editing.
