# NSFW Image Generation

## When to use

The user wants adult images generated programmatically, or wants to add uncensored image generation to their own product. Spicy API (spicyapi.com) is a paid, pay-per-image API with moderation before billing.

## Golden path

1. `read_acceptable_use` once: adults only, no real people (with or without consent), no minors in any form. The user's product must age-gate its users.
2. `get_account` for the balance, then `list_models` with kind `image`: `spicy-image-1` is the price and speed pick at $0.06 per image; `spicy-image-1-pro` ($0.09) for the strongest prompt adherence; `spicy-image-photo-1` ($0.08) for a candid, natural-light photo look. Explicit sex scenes with a specific woman: `spicy-image-action-1` ($0.15) with `action`, one of 68 ready-made explicit stills from `list_image_actions`, and `image_url` of the woman (one of `list_images`): her face, hair and skin tone go into the still, which keeps the act, pose, room and her body; no prompt or size, and describing a body type does not change it; for an anime, 3D or cartoon woman pass `style` (`anime`, `3d`, `cartoon`) to get the drawn version of the scene. A picture the user supplies (businesses approved for character import only): `spicy-image-reference-1` ($0.24) with `reference_image` (https or data URL, no prompt, one image) recreates it as new people (every face replaced, body and outfit changed a little, room redesigned; pose, framing and light kept) and returns `description`, the picture as an editable prompt for `spicy-image-photo-1`. Edits with reference images: kind `image-edit`, inputs must be the account's own generated images.
3. `estimate_cost` with model and `n` (billed per image); say the number.
4. `generate_image` (guarded): without `approval_token` it returns `approval_required` with the cost; show it, get the user's yes, call again with the token. Synchronous, 10 to 30 seconds, returns durable CDN URLs and `cost_usd`. Blocked prompts return 422 and cost nothing.
5. The returned URLs are the valid inputs for `edit_image` and `generate_video`, so generate the still first when the user wants video next.

## Without MCP: the OpenAI SDK

```python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(api_key="sk-spicy-...", base_url="https://api.spicyapi.com/v1")

# Images: the OpenAI SDK's images.generate maps onto POST /v1/images/generations
img = client.images.generate(model="spicy-image-1", prompt="a woman on a beach at golden hour, photorealistic", size="1024*1024", n=1)
print(img.data[0].url)  # durable CDN URL, reusable as image_url for edits and video

# Chat: fully compatible, streaming included
stream = client.chat.completions.create(model="spicy-chat-1", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "hey"}], stream=True)
```

`size` is written with an asterisk and priced the same whatever the shape. `spicy-image-1`, `-pro` and `spicy-image-photo-1`: `1024*1024`, `832*1216`, `1216*832`, `1280*1280`, `1440*1440`, `1024*1536`, `1536*1024`, `1080*1920`, `1920*1080`, `1152*2048`, `2048*1152`. `n` is 1 to 6; `seed`, `negative_prompt`, `enhance_prompt` (with `enhance_mode` direct or agent) and `style` (`photorealistic`, `studio`, `anime`, `3d` or `cartoon` from `list_styles` or `GET /v1/styles`; free, same price) are accepted; prompts are capped at 2000 characters. Edits take the same `n`, `size` and `enhance_prompt`. TypeScript: `new OpenAI({ baseURL: "https://api.spicyapi.com/v1", apiKey })` and `client.images.generate(...)`.

## Prompting

Say who, where, what light, what pose and what style; the models are tuned for explicit content between adults and refuse nothing on the allowed side of the acceptable use policy. Every request is steered to depict adults only.

## Image models

## Tools used by this skill
- `list_models`: Every model with its kind (image, image-edit, video, video-edit, chat, speech, realtime, transcription, embedding), USD price (per image, per second by resolution or quality, per 1M tokens, per 10,000 characters of speech input, or per minute of audio), limits (image sizes, outputs per call, resolutions, clip lengths, aspect ratios, prompt character caps), whether it needs or accepts an input image or references, and example clips. Video rows carry `inputs`: which of first frame, last frame, reference images, clip and audio the model takes, `inputs.audio.mode` (driving: the clip is the soundtrack and the mouth follows it; reference: the model generates sound and uses the clip for voice, tone and beat; none) and `inputs.combinations`, the valid input combinations in plain sentences. Read those before generate_video. `silent: true` marks a video model that renders without sound; `bills_input_video_seconds: true` one that also bills the seconds of an input clip. Video-edit rows carry `video_edit` (instruction or motion mode, clip lengths, reference images, whether input seconds are billed) for edit_video. Speech rows carry `speech`: preset voices, whether `instructions` are accepted, custom voices, languages, inline `tags` and voice creation fees. Realtime rows (spicy-live-1) are live voice calls over a WebSocket: a server or app opens a session with POST /v1/realtime/sessions and connects the returned ticket URL; they cannot be driven from a tool call. Prices here are exactly what the API bills. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: `kind`?: image | image-edit | video | video-edit | chat | speech | realtime | transcription | embedding (Filter by kind.).
- `estimate_cost`: USD cost of a request before making it, from the same price table the gateway bills: images by count, video by seconds and resolution (plus the input clip or action clip on models that bill it), video edits by clip length (input plus output seconds for instruction edits, output seconds for motion transfer), chat by tokens, speech by characters of input (plus instructions), transcription by seconds of audio, embeddings by tokens, live calls by minutes. Use it to quote the user and to check against get_account before a spend. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: `model`: string (A model id from list_models, e.g. spicy-image-1, spicy-image-1-pro, spicy-image-photo-1.); `n`?: integer (Images per call (image models), clamped to the model's maximum.); `resolution`?: string (Video or video-edit resolution, e.g. 720P (default) or 1080P.); `quality`?: standard | pro (Motion transfer tier on spicy-animate-1, default standard.); `duration`?: integer (Video seconds, default 5; -1 for a model-chosen length where supported.); `input_seconds`?: number (Length of the input clip in seconds: the clip to edit or motion clip on video-edit models (default 5), or a video_url on video models that bill input seconds.); `motion`?: string (A library motion id (list_motions) on spicy-animate-1; its length sets the output length.); `action`?: string (An action id (list_actions) on spicy-motion-3 and -fast: its reference clip seconds (4 on most) are billed as input, and duration defaults to 8.); `fps`?: any (Video frame rate: 30 (default) or 60. 60 smooths motion with frame interpolation for 20% on top of the video price (input or action clip seconds included); audio is kept. If that step fails the 30 fps clip is delivered and the fee refunded.); `tokens`?: integer (Chat: total tokens, default 1000. Embeddings: text tokens, default 1000.); `image_tokens`?: integer (Embeddings on spicy-embed-vision-1: image tokens, default 0.); `characters`?: integer (Speech models: characters of input plus instructions (CJK ideographs and inline tags count too), default 100.); `audio_seconds`?: number (Transcription: seconds of audio, default 60.); `minutes`?: number (Live calls (spicy-live-1): minutes of conversation, default 1.); `count`?: integer (How many such requests, default 1.).
- `get_account`: Balance in USD, spend this calendar month, the monthly spend limit if set, whether approvals are skipped for agents, whether the account has ever topped up, the webhook URL, and whether this key is a sandbox key. Call it first and before any spend. Arguments: no arguments.
- `list_images`: The account's generated images, newest first. These are the only URLs accepted as image inputs by edit_image, generate_video, edit_video and create_embeddings (no uploads, no third-party URLs). Use it to pick a first frame to animate or a performer for motion transfer. Arguments: `limit`?: integer (Default 20.).
- `list_characters`: The account's saved characters: reusable identities built from its own generated images. Pass a character id as `character` to generate_image, edit_image or generate_video to get the same person again across images, edits and video. No uploads are involved; a character can only be made from images this account generated. The exception is `imported: true` characters: a registered business can apply in the dashboard (Settings, Character import: https://www.spicyapi.com/dashboard/import) to bring its own platform's existing AI-generated characters over with POST /v1/characters/import. There is no tool for importing, and an agent cannot apply for the user. One with `status: "under_review"` cannot be used until a person approves it. Arguments: no arguments.
- `create_character` (guarded): Save a reusable identity from 1 to 3 of the account's own generated images of the same person (list_images or a generate_image result). Renders one neutral reference sheet (billed as one image edit) and returns the character id to pass as `character` elsewhere. Up to 50 per account. Guarded: without approval_token it returns {error: "approval_required", summary, approval_token}; show the summary (it carries the cost), get the user's yes, call again with the token. Arguments: `name`: string (A label, e.g. Mara.); `image_urls`: array (Generated images of the same person, from this account.); `approval_token`?: string (Approval token from a previous approval_required response, after the user said yes.).
- `generate_image` (guarded): Text to image, synchronous (10 to 30 seconds), returns durable CDN URLs reusable as image_url for edits and video. Or an image action: model spicy-image-action-1 with an action from list_image_actions and image_url of the woman (one of list_images) puts her face, hair and skin tone into that ready-made explicit scene, no prompt (a minute or two); style studio gives the finished picture a warm glamour colour grade, and anime, 3d or cartoon put her into the drawn version of the scene, for a drawn woman. Or a reference: model spicy-image-reference-1 (businesses approved for character import only) with reference_image (a picture the user supplies, https or data URL) recreates it as new people, every face replaced, body and outfit changed a little, room redesigned, and returns its description to reuse as a prompt (30 to 60 seconds, one image). One to six images per call, billed per image at the model's rate; the exact amount is cost_usd in the result. Prompts are screened first and outputs after (withheld images are refunded and counted in `withheld`); blocked prompts cost nothing. Every request depicts adults only. Guarded: without approval_token it returns {error: "approval_required", summary, approval_token}; show the summary (it carries the cost), get the user's yes, call again with the token. Arguments: `model`: string (An image model id: spicy-image-1 (fast), spicy-image-1-pro (best prompt adherence), spicy-image-photo-1 (candid natural-light photo look), spicy-image-action-1 (image actions only) or spicy-image-reference-1 (reference_image only; businesses approved for character import).); `prompt`?: string (What to generate, up to 2000 characters. Required, except with action or reference_image where it is not accepted.); `reference_image`?: string (On spicy-image-reference-1 only, and required there: the picture to recreate as new people, a public https URL or a data URL (JPEG, PNG or WebP). No prompt, size, style, character or enhance_prompt; n is 1. Pictures of anyone who may be under 18 or of known people are refused at no charge.); `action`?: string (An image action id from list_image_actions, on spicy-image-action-1 only, e.g. pov-missionary: the still sets the act, pose, room and shape; image_url (or character) supplies the woman's face, hair and skin tone. No prompt, negative_prompt, size or enhance_prompt. Her body stays the still's. style studio adds a warm glamour colour grade to the result; anime, 3d or cartoon picks the drawn version of the still (see styles in list_image_actions); match it to her image.); `image_url`?: string (With action: the woman, one of this account's own generated images (list_images). Photo women take no style (or studio); anime, 3D or cartoon women take the matching style.); `negative_prompt`?: string; `size`?: string (width*height from the model's limits.sizes, one price per model whatever the size: 1024*1024, 832*1216, 1216*832, 1280*1280, 1440*1440, 1024*1536, 1536*1024, 1080*1920, 1920*1080, 1152*2048, 2048*1152. Default 1024*1024.); `n`?: integer (Images to return, 1 to 6, default 1. Billed per image delivered.); `seed`?: integer; `enhance_prompt`?: boolean (Let the model expand the prompt with lighting, camera and detail cues. Default false: the prompt goes as written.); `enhance_mode`?: direct | agent (With enhance_prompt: direct (default) rewrites once, agent plans the shot then writes.); `character`?: string (A saved character id (list_characters): the same person is rendered in the new scene, billed at the image-edit rate.); `style`?: photorealistic | studio | anime | 3d | cartoon (Art style (list_styles): photorealistic, studio (glossy glamour), anime, 3d (animated-film CGI) or cartoon (2D adult cartoon). Prompt text only, same price.); `approval_token`?: string (Approval token from a previous approval_required response, after the user said yes.).
- `edit_image` (guarded): Prompt-driven edit of one to three images the account generated (list_images), for outfit, pose and scene changes. Synchronous; returns one to six durable CDN URLs, billed per output image (withheld outputs are refunded). Guarded: without approval_token it returns {error: "approval_required", summary, approval_token}; show the summary (it carries the cost), get the user's yes, call again with the token. Arguments: `model`: string (An image-edit model id, e.g. spicy-image-edit-1.); `prompt`: string (The change to make, up to 2000 characters.); `image_urls`?: array (Source images, all from this account's own generations. Optional when `character` is given (the character sheet is Image 1; these follow as Image 2 and 3).); `negative_prompt`?: string; `size`?: string (Output width*height from the model's limits (same eleven sizes as generate_image). Omit to let the model choose.); `n`?: integer (Variations to return, 1 to 6, default 1. Billed per image.); `seed`?: integer; `enhance_prompt`?: boolean (Let the model expand the prompt with lighting, camera and detail cues. Default false.); `character`?: string (A saved character id (list_characters) to keep the same person.); `approval_token`?: string (Approval token from a previous approval_required response, after the user said yes.).
- `list_image_actions`: The image action library for generate_image on spicy-image-action-1: id, label, category (sex, anal, oral, handjob, cumshot, solo, trans), image_url (the still), preview_url (a small copy), size (the output width*height) and styles (the still redrawn as anime, 3d and cartoon, for style on a drawn woman). 68 ready-made explicit stills; most share their id with a video action (list_actions). The still supplies the act, pose, framing, room and her body; the caller's image supplies her face, hair and skin tone. Every still was generated with AI (no real performers). Billed per image at the model's rate. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: no arguments.
- `list_styles`: The art styles for `style` on generate_image and generate_video: id, label, description and preview_url (a sample image). photorealistic, studio (glossy glamour), anime, 3d (animated-film CGI) and cartoon (2D adult cartoon). A style only adds prompt text, so the model, seed and price are unchanged. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: no arguments.
- `get_topup_link`: Checkout URL to add funds by card (hosted checkout) or crypto for a preset amount ($50, $100, $250, $500, $1000; minimum $50). The USER opens it and pays in the browser; never enter payment details yourself. The balance is credited by the payment webhook; call get_account afterwards. If it returns commitment_required, the user must first sign the one-page Customer Commitment Letter on the Billing page; an agent cannot sign it. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: `amount_usd`?: integer (One of 50, 100, 250, 500, 1000. Default 50.); `method`?: card | crypto (Default card.).
- `read_acceptable_use`: The acceptable use policy as markdown: prohibited content (minors in any form, images or video of real people with or without consent, non-consensual scenarios and the rest), age-verification duties for the customer's product, enforcement. Read it before the first generation and tell the user what their product must do. Works with a $0 balance. Arguments: no arguments.

## Setup (once per user)

1. Key: the user signs in once at https://www.spicyapi.com/auth (Google or email). The account is live at once with a $0 balance and a Default key shown once at https://www.spicyapi.com/dashboard/api-keys. Keep the key in an environment variable (`SPICYAPI_KEY`), never in chat, never in client-side code. With one key you can mint more with `create_api_key`.
2. Connect. MCP (Streamable HTTP): `https://www.spicyapi.com/api/mcp` with header `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport http spicyapi https://www.spicyapi.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer sk-spicy-..."`. Cursor, Codex and any URL-plus-headers client: same URL and header. REST instead of MCP: `POST https://www.spicyapi.com/api/v1/tools/<tool_name>` with the same header and a JSON body of arguments; `GET https://www.spicyapi.com/api/v1/tools` lists them; OpenAPI 3.1 at https://www.spicyapi.com/openapi.json. OAuth 2.1 clients (Claude custom connectors, ChatGPT, directory scanners) need only the URL: the endpoint advertises its authorization server, the user signs in and consents in the browser, and the token it returns is an API key they can revoke in the dashboard.
3. Dry run first: a key created with Sandbox ticked (or `create_api_key` with `sandbox: true`) answers every endpoint and every tool from fixture output flagged `sandbox: true`, needs no balance and bills nothing. Build against it, then swap the key. Never present sandbox output to the user as a real generation.
4. Money: `get_account` shows the balance; `estimate_cost` prices a request from the same table the API bills; `get_topup_link` returns a card or crypto checkout URL (presets $50, $100, $250, $500, $1000, minimum $50) that the USER opens and pays in the browser. Never enter card details yourself. A 402 means the balance ran out or the monthly limit was hit.
5. Rate limit: 60 requests per minute per key on the agent surfaces.

## Rules that always apply

- Guarded tools (`generate_image`, `edit_image`, `generate_video`, `edit_video`, `transcribe_audio`, `create_embeddings`, `upload_audio`, `delete_audio`, `generate_speech`, `create_voice`, `delete_voice`, `create_character`, `delete_character`, `create_api_key`, `revoke_api_key`, and `set_spend_limit` when raising or removing a limit) first return `{error: "approval_required", summary, approval_token}`. Show the summary to the user verbatim (it carries the cost), get an explicit yes in the conversation, then call the tool again with the same arguments plus `approval_token` (15-minute expiry, bound to those exact arguments). Never approve in bulk or reuse a token for a different action. The account can turn approvals off in the dashboard; moderation, provenance and the spend limit still apply.
- Input images for `edit_image`, `generate_video`, `edit_video` and `create_embeddings` must be images this account generated (`list_images`); input clips (`video_url`) must be the account's own finished tasks. Uploads and third-party URLs are rejected before any charge; do not try to work around it. The external inputs are audio: `upload_audio` takes a WAV or MP3 (2 to 30 seconds) from a public URL, transcribes and screens it for $0.01, and its returned `url`, or the `url` of a `generate_speech` clip, is what `audio_url` accepts; `transcribe_audio` reads any public audio URL into text.
- The same person across many outputs: `create_character` from 1 to 3 generated images of them, then pass the returned id as `character` to `generate_image`, `edit_image` or `generate_video` (`spicy-character-video-1` needs no first frame). This is the supported way to get consistency; never ask the user for a photo.
- Read `read_acceptable_use` before the first generation: adults only, no minors in any form (including "young-looking" or youth-coded content), no images or video of real people (with or without consent; voice clones need the speaker's written consent), no non-consensual scenarios. Blocked prompts return 422 and cost nothing; repeated attempts terminate the account. Tell the user their product must age-verify its end users and disclose that content is AI-generated.
- When the user's product serves other people, pass each person's own stable id as `user` on every call. Screening history, strikes and suspensions then apply to that one person (403 `end_user_suspended`) instead of the whole account, and the id is kept with each generation's record, so a report about one person's output is traced to them and not to everyone on the account.
- Everything is scoped to the account behind the key; there is no way to read another account's data.
- Spicy API is spicyapi.com. spicyapi.ai is an unrelated aggregator; do not mix their prices or models.
