## 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: "openai/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst/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 openai/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst/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**: `openai/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst/edit`

### GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst Edit

GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is OpenAI's upgraded GPT Image generation model, reached through the OpenAI Images API. Generation is asynchronous: submit the request, then poll for the final image URL.

#### Highlights

- **Up to 16 reference images** in a single request, with an optional `mask`.
- **Five quality tiers**: `low`, `medium`, `high`, plus `xhigh` and `max`, which are new in gpt-image-2.5.
- **Arbitrary resolutions** up to 3840x2160, and fully supported transparent backgrounds.
- **Long prompts**: up to 32000 characters.

#### Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `model` | Yes | `openai/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst/edit` |
| `images` | Yes | Up to 16 source images. Each entry is a URL, Base64 data, or an asset reference (`asset://<ASSET_ID>`). |
| `mask` | No | Optional mask marking the region to edit, in the same formats as `images`. Transparent pixels mark the area the model should replace; it must match the first source image's dimensions. |
| `prompt` | Yes | Instruction describing the desired edit. Up to 32000 characters. |
| `quality` | No | Rendering tier: `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`, `max`. Defaults to `medium`. `xhigh` and `max` are new in gpt-image-2.5. |
| `size` | No | Output size as `WIDTHxHEIGHT` (for example `1536x864`) or `auto`. Defaults to `1024x1024`. The only control over output dimensions. |
| `background` | No | `auto`, `opaque`, or `transparent`. `transparent` forces a `png` or `webp` output format. |
| `output_format` | No | `png`, `jpeg`, or `webp`. Defaults to `png`. |
| `n` | No | Number of images to generate, 1 to 10. Defaults to 1. Each image is billed separately. |
