# IMA Voice AI Creation
## Scope & Dependencies (Declared for Transparency)
- **Credentials:** This skill requires an **IMA API key** at runtime (`IMA_API_KEY` or `--api-key`). The key is sent only to **api.imastudio.com**. Obtain keys at https://imastudio.com. Declared in registry as required.
- **Optional dependency:** When **ima-knowledge-ai** is installed, this skill may instruct the agent to read that skill's reference files (`~/.openclaw/skills/ima-knowledge-ai/references/*`) for workflow and model-selection guidance. **This skill is self-contained** — it works fully without ima-knowledge-ai. Reading another skill's files is optional and only for complex or multi-step tasks; users who do not have or trust ima-knowledge-ai can ignore those steps and use this skill's built-in defaults and **📥 User Input Parsing** tables.
- **Local paths:** This skill reads/writes `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` (preferences) and `~/.openclaw/logs/ima_skills/` (logs; auto-deleted after 7 days). User can delete these anytime.
---
## Optional: Read Knowledge Base (When ima-knowledge-ai Is Installed)
**If ima-knowledge-ai is not installed:** Skip this section. Use only this SKILL's default models and the **📥 User Input Parsing** tables for model_id and parameters.
**When ima-knowledge-ai is installed and the task is complex**, you may optionally read its reference files for better workflow and model choice:
1. **Workflow complexity** — Read `ima-knowledge-ai/references/workflow-design.md` if:
- User mentions: "MV"、"配乐"、"完整作品"、"多步骤"、"soundtrack"
- Task involves: video + music coordination, multi-track production, integrated workflows
- Complex requirements that need task decomposition
2. **Model selection** — Read `ima-knowledge-ai/references/model-selection.md` if:
- Unsure which model to use (Suno vs DouBao BGM vs DouBao Song)
- Need cost/quality trade-off guidance
- User specifies budget or quality requirements
**Why this is optional:**
- Music generation is often part of a larger workflow (video + music, story + soundtrack)
- For simple single-track requests, proceed directly with this skill's defaults
- For complex workflows, reading the knowledge base can improve task decomposition and model choice
**Example workflow case (when using optional knowledge base):**
```
User: "帮我做个产品宣传MV,有背景音乐"
❌ Wrong: 直接生成音乐 (music alone, no coordination with video)
✅ Right (if ima-knowledge-ai available):
1. Read workflow-design.md
2. Decompose: Script → Video shots → Background music (matching video duration/mood)
3. Generate video first (get duration)
4. Generate BGM with matching duration and style
```
**How to check (optional):**
```python
# Only if ima-knowledge-ai is installed and task is complex
if ima_knowledge_ai_installed and (complex_workflow or multi_step):
read("~/.openclaw/skills/ima-knowledge-ai/references/workflow-design.md")
if ima_knowledge_ai_installed and unsure_model_choice:
read("~/.openclaw/skills/ima-knowledge-ai/references/model-selection.md")
# Choose model (this skill's logic works with or without knowledge base)
if "background music" or "BGM" or "instrumental":
use_doubao_bgm() # 30pts, pure instrumental
elif "song" or "lyrics" or "vocals":
use_suno_sonic() # 25pts, full-featured with lyrics
else:
use_suno_sonic() # Default: most versatile
```
**For simple requests:** Proceed directly with this skill's defaults. No need to read other skills' files.
---
## 📥 User Input Parsing (Model & Parameter Recognition)
**Purpose:** So that any agent (Claude or other models) parses user intent consistently, follow these rules when deriving **model_id** and **task type** from natural language. Normalize first, then map.
### 1. User phrasing → model selection (model_id)
| User intent / phrasing | model_id | Notes |
|------------------------|----------|--------|
| BGM / 背景音乐 / 纯音乐 / 无人声 / instrumental / 配乐 | `GenBGM` | DouBao BGM, 30 pts, ~30s |
| 歌 / 歌曲 / 带歌词 / 人声 / song / lyrics / 有唱 | `sonic` or `GenSong` | Suno (25 pts, ~2min) or DouBao Song (30 pts, ~30s) |
| Suno / 苏诺 / sonic | `sonic` | Full-featured, lyrics, vocal_gender, 25 pts |
| 豆包 BGM / DouBao BGM / BGM | `GenBGM` | 30 pts |
| 豆包 歌曲 / DouBao Song / 豆包歌 | `GenSong` | 30 pts |
| 最便宜 / 最省钱 / cheapest / budget | `GenBGM` or `GenSong` (6 pts 档 if available) | Only if user explicitly asks for cheapest |
| 最好 / 最全功能 / best / 带歌词可调 | `sonic` | Suno default |
If the user does not specify, default to **Suno (`sonic`)** for versatility. For "背景音乐"/"BGM"/"配乐" only → use **DouBao BGM (`GenBGM`)**.
### 2. Music-specific parameters (Suno)
| User says (examples) | Parameter | Action |
|----------------------|-----------|--------|
| 无人声 / 纯音乐 / no vocals / instrumental | make_instrumental | true |
| 女声 / 女声演唱 / female vocals | vocal_gender | "female" (custom_mode true) |
| 男声 / 男声演唱 / male vocals | vocal_gender | "male" (custom_mode true) |
| 我写歌词 / 自定义歌词 / custom lyrics | custom_mode + lyrics | Provide lyrics in request |
When using Suno with lyrics or vocal control, set `custom_mode: true` and pass `lyrics` / `vocal_gender` per API docs.

## ⚙️ How This Skill Works
**For transparency:** This skill uses a bundled Python script (`scripts/ima_voice_create.py`) to call the IMA Open API. The script:
- Sends your prompt to `https://api.imastudio.com` (IMA's servers)
- Uses `--user-id` **only locally** as a key for storing your model preferences
- Returns a music URL when generation is complete
- **NEW (v1.1.0): Automatic reflection mechanism** — if generation fails, the script automatically retries up to 3 times with smart parameter adjustments
### 🧠 Reflection Mechanism (Automatic Error Recovery)
This skill now includes an **intelligent reflection system** that automatically recovers from common errors:
**3-Layer Retry Strategy:**
1. **Attempt 1: Original Parameters**
- Uses your provided parameters with smart credit_rule selection
- Most tasks succeed on first try
2. **Attempt 2: Strict Match (Error 6009 Fix)**
- Automatically removes unsupported parameters
- Only keeps parameters in `credit_rules.attributes`
- Example: Removes unsupported Suno parameters if not in model config
3. **Attempt 3: Fallback to Default (Error 6010 Fix)**
- Uses model's default configuration
- Uses `credit_rules[0]` (first rule = safest default)
- Guarantees maximum compatibility
**Common Errors Fixed Automatically:**
- **Error 6009**: "No exact rule match found for parameters" → removes unsupported params
- **Error 6010**: "Attribute ID does not match" → corrects attribute_id to match params
- **Invalid product attribute**: Uses default rule configuration
**User Experience:**
- ✅ **Transparent**: Shows reflection log when retries happen
- ✅ **Fast**: Most tasks succeed on first attempt (no delay)
- ✅ **Smart**: Learns from errors and adjusts automatically
- ✅ **User-friendly**: Provides helpful suggestions if all 3 attempts fail
**Example Output (with reflection):**
```
🚀 Creating music generation task…
🧠 反省日志 (2 次尝试):
❌ [尝试 1] Invalid product attribute → 移除不支持的参数: ['unsupported_param']
✅ [尝试 2] ✅ 成功(尝试 2)
✅ Task created: task_abc123xyz
```
**What gets sent to IMA servers:**
- ✅ Your music prompt/description
- ✅ Model selection (Suno/DouBao)
- ❌ NO API key in prompts (key is used for authentication only)
- ❌ NO user_id (it's only used locally)
**What's stored locally:**
- `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` - Your model preferences (< 1 KB)
- `~/.openclaw/logs/ima_skills/` - Generation logs (auto-deleted after 7 days)
### Agent Execution (Internal Reference)
> **Note for users:** You can review the script source at `scripts/ima_voice_create.py` anytime.
> **This skill uses only `api.imastudio.com`** (no image upload needed for music generation, unlike image/video skills which also use `imapi.liveme.com`).
Use the bundled script internally:
```bash
# Generate music — Suno sonic-v5
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ima_voice_create.py \
--api-key $IMA_API_KEY \
--task-type text_to_music \
--model-id sonic \
--prompt "upbeat lo-fi hip hop, 90 BPM, no vocals" \
--user-id {user_id} \
--output-json
# DouBao BGM
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ima_voice_create.py \
--api-key $IMA_API_KEY \
--model-id GenBGM \
--prompt "calm ambient piano background" \
--user-id {user_id} \
--output-json
```
The script outputs JSON — parse it to get the result URL and pass it to the user via the UX protocol messages below.

## Overview
Call IMA Open API to create AI-generated music/audio. All endpoints require an `ima_*` API key. The core flow is: **query products → create task → poll until done**.
---
## 🔒 Security & Transparency Policy
> **This skill is community-maintained and open for inspection.**
### 🌐 Network Architecture
**This skill uses a simpler network architecture than image/video skills:**
| Skill Type | Domains Used | Why |
|------------|--------------|-----|
| **ima-voice-ai** (this skill) | ✅ `api.imastudio.com` only | Music generation doesn't require image uploads |
| ima-image-ai, ima-video-ai | `api.imastudio.com` + `imapi.liveme.com` | Image/video tasks need image upload service |
**Why the difference?**
- **Music generation** (text_to_music) only needs text prompts → single API endpoint
- **Image/video generation** (i2i, i2v tasks) needs image file uploads → requires separate upload service
**Security verification:**
```bash
# Verify this skill only uses api.imastudio.com:
grep -n "https://" scripts/ima_voice_create.py
# Expected output:
# Only https://api.imastudio.com (no imapi.liveme.com)
```
---
### ✅ What Users CAN Do
**Full transparency:**
- ✅ **Review all source code**: Check `scripts/ima_voice_create.py` and `ima_logger.py` anytime
- ✅ **Verify network calls**: **This skill uses only `api.imastudio.com`** (music generation doesn't require image uploads). Verify by running: `grep -n "https://" scripts/ima_voice_create.py`
- ✅ **Inspect local data**: View `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` and log files
- ✅ **Control privacy**: Delete preferences/logs anytime, or disable file writes (see below)
**Configuration allowed:**
- ✅ **Set API key** in environment or agent config:
- Environment variable: `export IMA_API_KEY=ima_your_key_here`
- OpenClaw/MCP config: Add `IMA_API_KEY` to agent's environment configuration
- Get your key at: https://imastudio.com
- ✅ **Use scoped/test keys**: Test with limited API keys, rotate after testing
- ✅ **Disable file writes**: Make prefs/logs read-only or symlink to `/dev/null`
**Data control:**
- ✅ **View stored data**: `cat ~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json`
- ✅ **Delete preferences**: `rm ~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` (resets to defaults)
- ✅ **Delete logs**: `rm -rf ~/.openclaw/logs/ima_skills/` (auto-cleanup after 7 days anyway)
### ⚠️ Advanced Users: Fork & Modify
If you need to modify this skill for your use case:
1. **Fork the repository** (don't modify the original)
2. **Update your fork** with your changes
3. **Test thoroughly** with limited API keys
4. **Document your changes** for troubleshooting
**Note:** Modified skills may break API compatibility or introduce security issues. Official support only covers the unmodified version.
### ❌ What to AVOID (Security Risks)
**Actions that could compromise security:**
- ❌ Sharing API keys publicly or in skill files
- ❌ Modifying API endpoints to unknown servers
- ❌ Disabling SSL/TLS certificate verification
- ❌ Logging sensitive user data (prompts, IDs, etc.)
- ❌ Bypassing authentication or billing mechanisms
**Why this matters:**
1. **API Compatibility**: Skill logic aligns with IMA Open API schema
2. **Security**: Malicious modifications could leak credentials or bypass billing
3. **Support**: Modified skills may not be supported
4. **Community**: Breaking changes affect all users
### 📁 File System Access (Declared)
This skill reads/writes the following files:
| Path | Purpose | Size | Auto-cleanup | User Control |
|------|---------|------|--------------|--------------|
| `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` | User model preferences | < 1 KB | No | Delete anytime |
| `~/.openclaw/logs/ima_skills/` | Generation logs | ~10-50 KB/day | 7 days | Delete anytime |
**What's stored:**
- ✅ Model preferences (e.g., "last used: Suno sonic-v5")
- ✅ Timestamps (e.g., "2026-02-27 12:34:56")
- ✅ Task IDs and HTTP status codes
- ❌ NO API keys
- ❌ NO personal data
- ❌ NO prompts or generated content
**Full transparency:** See the complete data flow and privacy policy in the skill documentation above.
### 📋 Privacy & Data Handling Summary
**What this skill does with your data:**
| Data Type | Sent to IMA? | Stored Locally? | User Control |
|-----------|-------------|-----------------|--------------|
| Music prompts | ✅ Yes (required for generation) | ❌ No | None (required) |
| API key | ✅ Yes (authentication header) | ❌ No | Set via env var |
| user_id (optional CLI arg) | ❌ **Never** (local preference key only) | ✅ Yes (as prefs file key) | Change `--user-id` value |
| Model preferences | ❌ No | ✅ Yes (~/.openclaw) | Delete anytime |
| Generation logs | ❌ No | ✅ Yes (~/.openclaw) | Auto-cleanup 7 days |
**Privacy recommendations:**
1. **Use test/scoped API keys** for initial testing
2. **Note**: `--user-id` is **never sent to IMA servers** - it's only used locally as a key for storing preferences in `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json`
3. **Review source code** at `scripts/ima_voice_create.py` to verify network calls (search for `create_task` function)
4. **Rotate API keys** after testing or if compromised
**Get your IMA API key:** Visit https://imastudio.com to register and get started.
### 🔧 For Skill Maintainers Only
**Version control:**
- All changes must go through Git with proper version bumps (semver)
- CHANGELOG.md must document all changes
- Production deployments require code review
**File checksums (optional):**
```bash
# Verify skill integrity
sha256sum SKILL.md scripts/ima_voice_create.py
```
If users report issues, verify file integrity first.
---
## 🧠 User Preference Memory
> User preferences **override** recommended defaults. If a user has generated before, use their preferred model — not the system default.
### Storage: `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json`
```json
{
"user_{user_id}": {
"text_to_music": { "model_id": "sonic", "model_name": "Suno", "credit": 25, "last_used": "..." }
}
}
```
If the file or key doesn't exist, fall back to the ⭐ Recommended Defaults below.
### When to Read (Before Every Generation)
1. Load `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` (silently, no error if missing)
2. Look up `user_{user_id}.text_to_music`
3. **If found** → use that model; mention it:
```
🎵 根据你的使用习惯,将用 [Model Name] 帮你生成音乐…
• 模型:[Model Name](你的常用模型)
• 预计耗时:[X ~ Y 秒]
• 消耗积分:[N pts]
```
4. **If not found** → use the ⭐ Recommended Default (Suno sonic-v5)
### When to Write (After Every Successful Generation)
Save the used model to `~/.openclaw/memory/ima_prefs.json` under `user_{user_id}.text_to_music`.
See `ima-image-ai/SKILL.md` → "User Preference Memory" for the full Python write snippet.
### When to Update (User Explicitly Changes Model)
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| `用XXX` / `换成XXX` | Switch + save as new preference |
| `以后都用XXX` / `always use XXX` | Save + confirm: `✅ 已记住!以后音乐生成默认用 [XXX]` |
| `用便宜的` / `cheapest` | Use DouBao BGM/Song; do NOT save unless user says "以后都用" |
---
## ⭐ Recommended Defaults
> **These are fallback defaults — only used when no user preference exists.**
> **Always default to the newest and most popular model. Do NOT default to the cheapest.**
| Task | Default Model | model_id | model_version | Cost | Why |
|------|--------------|----------|---------------|------|-----|
| text_to_music | **Suno (sonic-v5)** | `sonic` | `sonic` | 25 pts | Latest Suno engine, best quality |
| text_to_music (BGM only) | **DouBao BGM** | `GenBGM` | `GenBGM` | 30 pts | Background music |
| text_to_music (song) | **DouBao Song** | `GenSong` | `GenSong` | 30 pts | Song generation |
**Selection guide by use case:**
- Custom song with lyrics, vocals, style → **Suno sonic-v5** (default)
- Background music / ambient loop → **DouBao BGM**
- Simple song generation → **DouBao Song**
- User explicitly asks for cheapest → DouBao BGM/Song (6pts each) — only if explicitly requested
> ⚠️ For Suno: `model_version` inside `parameters` (e.g. `sonic-v5`) is different from the outer `model_version` field (which is `sonic`). Always set both.
---
## 💬 User Experience Protocol (IM / Feishu / Discord) v1.1 🆕
> **v1.1 Update:** Added Step 0 to ensure correct message ordering in group chats (learned from ima-image-ai v1.2).
>
> Music generation completes in 10~45 seconds. **Never let users wait in silence.**
> Always follow all 5 steps below, every single time.
### 🚫 Never Say to Users
| ❌ Never say | ✅ What users care about |
|-------------|--------------------------|
| `ima_voice_create.py` / 脚本 / script | — |
| 自动化脚本 / automation | — |
| 自动处理产品列表 / 查询接口 | — |
| 自动解析参数 / 智能轮询 | — |
| attribute_id / model_version / form_config | — |
| API 调用 / HTTP 请求 / 任何技术参数名 | — |
Only tell users: **model name · estimated time · credits · result (audio file/player) · plain-language status**.
---
### Estimated Generation Time per Model
| Model | Estimated Time | Poll Every | Send Progress Every |
|-------|---------------|------------|---------------------|
| DouBao BGM | 10~25s | 5s | 10s |
| DouBao Song | 10~25s | 5s | 10s |
| Suno (sonic-v5) | 20~45s | 5s | 15s |
`estimated_max_seconds` = upper bound (e.g. 45 for Suno, 25 for DouBao BGM/Song).
---
### Step 0 — Initial Acknowledgment Reply (Normal Reply) 🆕
**⚠️ CRITICAL:** This step ensures correct message ordering in group chats.
**Before doing anything else**, reply to the user with a friendly acknowledgment message using your **normal reply** (not `message` tool). This reply will automatically appear FIRST in the conversation.
**Example acknowledgment messages:**
```
好的!马上帮你生成轻松的背景音乐 🎵
```
```
收到!用 Suno 为你创作一首歌 🎶
```
```
OK! Starting music generation with DouBao BGM 🎵
```
**Rules:**
- Keep it short and warm (< 15 words)
- Match the user's language (Chinese/English)
- Include relevant emoji (🎵/🎶/🎸/🎹)
- This is your ONLY normal reply — all subsequent updates use `message` tool
**Why this matters:**
- Normal replies automatically appear FIRST in the conversation thread
- `message` tool pushes appear in chronological order AFTER your initial reply
- This ensures users see: "好的!" → "🎵 开始生成..." → "✅ 成功!" (correct order)
---
### Step 1 — Pre-Generation Notification (Push via message tool)
**After Step 0 reply**, use the `message` tool to push a notification immediately to the group/channel:
```python
# Agent implementation
message(
action="send",
target=group_id, # or channel_id for Discord
message="""🎵 开始生成音乐,请稍候…
• 模型:[Model Name]
• 预计耗时:[X ~ Y 秒]
• 消耗积分:[N pts]"""
)
```
**User-facing message template:**
```
🎵 开始生成音乐,请稍候…
• 模型:[Model Name]
• 预计耗时:[X ~ Y 秒]
• 消耗积分:[N pts]
```
**Cost transparency:**
- Balanced (Suno 25 pts): "使用 Suno(25 积分,功能最全)"
- DouBao alternatives (30 pts each): "使用 DouBao BGM(30 积分)" — only if user explicitly requests DouBao or background music type
> Adapt language to match the user. English → `🎵 Starting music generation, please wait [X~Y] seconds…`
---
### Step 2 — Progress Updates
Poll the task detail API every **5s**.
Send a progress update every `[Send Progress Every]` seconds per the table above.
```
⏳ 音乐生成中… [P]%
已等待 [elapsed]s,预计最长 [max]s
```
**Progress formula:**
```
P = min(95, floor(elapsed_seconds / estimated_max_seconds * 100))
```
- **Cap at 95%** — never show 100% until the API returns `success`
- If `elapsed > estimated_max`: keep P at 95% and append `「快好了,稍等…」`
---
### Step 3 — Success Notification (Push audio via message tool)
When task status = `success`, use the `message` tool to **send the generated audio directly** (not as a text URL):
**Agent implementation:**
```python
# Get result URL from script output or task detail API
result = get_task_result(task_id)
audio_url = result["medias"][0]["url"]
# Push audio + caption to group/channel
message(
action="send",
target=group_id,
media=audio_url, # Feishu/Discord will render the audio
caption=f"""✅ 音乐生成成功!
• 模型:[Model Name]
• 耗时:预计 [X~Y]s,实际 [actual]s
• 消耗积分:[N pts]
🔗 原始链接:{audio_url}"""
)
```
**User-facing message:**
```
✅ 音乐生成成功!
• 模型:[Model Name]
• 耗时:预计 [X~Y]s,实际 [actual]s
• 消耗积分:[N pts]
🔗 原始链接:https://ws.esxscloud.com/.../audio.wav
[音频直接显示为文件卡片,可点击播放]
```
**Platform-specific notes:**
- **Feishu**: `message(action=send, media=url, caption="...")` — caption appears with audio file card
- **Discord**: Audio embeds automatically from URL; caption can be in message text
- **Telegram**: Use `message(action=send, media=url, caption="...")`
**⚠️ Important**:
- Always send audio via `media` parameter (file card/player) + include URL in caption text
- Do NOT use local file paths like `/tmp/audio.wav` — use HTTP URL from API
- Users expect: (1) clickable audio file card + (2) raw URL link for sharing/downloading
- Format: `media=audio_url` + `caption="...🔗 原始链接:{audio_url}"`
---
### Step 4 — Failure Notification (Push via message tool)
When task status = `failed` or any API/network error, push a failure message with alternative suggestions:
**Agent implementation:**
```python
message(
action="send",
target=group_id,
message="""❌ 音乐生成失败
• 原因:[natural_language_error_message]
• 建议改用:
- [Alt Model 1]([特点],[N pts])
- [Alt Model 2]([特点],[N pts])
需要我帮你用其他模型重试吗?"""
)
```
**⚠️ CRITICAL: Error Message Translation**
**NEVER show technical error messages to users.** Always translate API errors into natural language.
**API key & credits:** 密钥与积分管理入口为 imaclaw.ai(与 imastudio.com 同属 IMA 平台)。Key and subscription management: imaclaw.ai (same IMA platform as imastudio.com).
| Technical Error | ❌ Never Say | ✅ Say Instead (Chinese) | ✅ Say Instead (English) |
|----------------|-------------|------------------------|------------------------|
| `401 Unauthorized` 🆕 | Invalid API key / 401 Unauthorized | ❌ API密钥无效或未授权
💡 **生成新密钥**: https://www.imaclaw.ai/imaclaw/apikey | ❌ API key is invalid or unauthorized
💡 **Generate API Key**: https://www.imaclaw.ai/imaclaw/apikey |
| `4008 Insufficient points` 🆕 | Insufficient points / Error 4008 | ❌ 积分不足,无法创建任务
💡 **购买积分**: https://www.imaclaw.ai/imaclaw/subscription | ❌ Insufficient points to create this task
💡 **Buy Credits**: https://www.imaclaw.ai/imaclaw/subscription |
| `"Invalid product attribute"` / `"Insufficient points"` | Invalid product attribute | 生成参数配置异常,请稍后重试 | Configuration error, please try again later |
| `Error 6006` (credit mismatch) | Error 6006 | 积分计算异常,系统正在修复 | Points calculation error, system is fixing |
| `Error 6010` (attribute_id mismatch) | Attribute ID does not match | 模型参数不匹配,请尝试其他模型 | Model parameters incompatible, try another model |
| `error 400` (bad request) | error 400 / Bad request | 音乐参数设置有误,请调整描述后重试 | Music parameter error, adjust description and retry |
| `resource_status == 2` | Resource status 2 / Failed | 音乐生成遇到问题,建议换个模型试试 | Music generation failed, try another model |
| `status == "failed"` (no details) | Task failed | 这次生成没成功,要不换个模型试试? | Generation unsuccessful, try a different model? |
| `timeout` | Task timed out / Timeout error | 音乐生成时间过长已超时,建议用更快的模型 | Music generation took too long, try a faster model |
| Network error / Connection refused | Connection refused / Network error | 网络连接不稳定,请检查网络后重试 | Network connection unstable, check network and retry |
| Rate limit exceeded | 429 Too Many Requests / Rate limit | 请求过于频繁,请稍等片刻再试 | Too many requests, please wait a moment |
| Model unavailable | Model not available / 503 Service Unavailable | 当前模型暂时不可用,建议换个模型 | Model temporarily unavailable, try another model |
| Lyrics format error (Suno only) | Invalid lyrics format | 歌词格式有误,请调整后重试 | Lyrics format error, adjust and retry |
| Prompt too short/long | Prompt length invalid | 音乐描述过短或过长,请调整到合适长度 | Music description too short or long, adjust length |
**Generic fallback (when error is unknown):**
- Chinese: `音乐生成遇到问题,请稍后重试或换个模型试试`
- English: `Music generation encountered an issue, please try again or use another model`
**Best Practices:**
1. **Focus on user action**: Tell users what to do next, not what went wrong technically
2. **Be reassuring**: Use phrases like "建议换个模型试试" instead of "生成失败了"
3. **Avoid blame**: Never say "你的描述有问题" → say "描述需要调整一下"
4. **Provide alternatives**: Always suggest 1-2 alternative models in the failure message
5. **Music-specific**:
- For Suno lyrics errors, suggest simplifying lyrics or using auto-generated lyrics
- For prompt length errors, give example length (e.g., "建议20-100字")
- For BGM requests, recommend DouBao BGM over Suno
6. **🆕 Include actionable links (v1.0.8+)**: For 401/4008 errors, provide clickable links to API key generation or credit purchase pages
**🆕 Enhanced Error Handling (v1.0.8):**
Music generation uses **direct error handling** (no Reflection mechanism due to simpler parameters):
- **401 Unauthorized**: System provides clickable link to API key generation page
- **4008 Insufficient Points**: System provides clickable link to credit purchase page
- Other errors: Clear natural language explanations with alternative model suggestions
Error messages are **user-friendly and actionable** — users receive clear next steps for resolution.
**Failure fallback table:**
| Failed Model | First Alt | Second Alt |
|-------------|-----------|------------|
| Suno | DouBao BGM(30pts,背景音乐) | DouBao Song(30pts,歌曲生成) |
| DouBao BGM | DouBao Song(30pts) | Suno(25pts,功能最强) |
| DouBao Song | DouBao BGM(30pts) | Suno(25pts,功能最强) |
---
### Step 5 — Done (No Further Action Needed) 🆕
**v1.1 Note:** After completing Steps 0-4:

## Supported Models
### text_to_music (3 models)
| Name | model_id | version_id | Cost | Key form_config |
|------|----------|------------|------|-----------------|
| **Suno** | `sonic` | `sonic` | 25 pts | `model_version=sonic-v5` (latest), `custom_mode=true`, `make_instrumental`, `auto_lyrics`, `tags`, `negative_tags`, `vocal_gender`, `title` |
| DouBao BGM | `GenBGM` | `GenBGM` | 30 pts | — |
| DouBao Song | `GenSong` | `GenSong` | 30 pts | — |
**Model guidance:**
- **Suno**: Most powerful option. Supports full custom mode with genre tags, explicit instrumental toggle, vocal gender selection, and negative tags to exclude unwanted styles.
- **DouBao BGM**: Lightweight background music generation. Ideal for ambient / background tracks.
- **DouBao Song**: Song generation. Good for structured vocal compositions.
**What you can generate:**
- Background music (lo-fi, ambient, cinematic, electronic, jazz, classical…)
- Custom jingles or theme songs with specific BPM and key
- Vocal or instrumental tracks with mood direction
- Short loops or full-length compositions
**Prompt writing tips (for Suno `gpt_description_prompt`):**
- Genre: `"lo-fi hip hop"`, `"orchestral cinematic"`, `"upbeat pop"`, `"dark ambient"`
- Tempo: `"80 BPM"`, `"fast tempo"`, `"slow ballad"`
- Vocals: `"no vocals"` → set `make_instrumental=true`; `"female vocals"` → `vocal_gender="female"`
- Mood: `"happy and energetic"`, `"melancholic"`, `"tense and dramatic"`
- Negative: `negative_tags="heavy metal, distortion"` to exclude styles
- Duration hint: `"60 seconds"`, `"30 second loop"`

## ⚠️ MANDATORY: Always Query Product List First
> **CRITICAL**: You MUST call `/open/v1/product/list` BEFORE creating any task.
> The `attribute_id` field is REQUIRED in the create request. If it is `0` or missing, you get:
> `"Invalid product attribute"` → `"Insufficient points"` → task fails completely.
> **NEVER construct a create request from the model table alone. Always fetch the product first.**
### How to get attribute_id
```python
# Step 1: Query product list
GET /open/v1/product/list?app=ima&platform=web&category=text_to_music
# Step 2: Walk the tree to find your model
for group in response["data"]:
for version in group.get("children", []):
if version["type"] == "3" and version["model_id"] == target_model_id:
attribute_id = version["credit_rules"][0]["attribute_id"]
credit = version["credit_rules"][0]["points"]
model_version = version["id"]
model_name = version["name"]
```
### Quick Reference: Known attribute_ids
⚠️ **Production warning**: `attribute_id` and `credit` values change frequently. Always call `/open/v1/product/list` at runtime; table below is pre-queried reference (2026-02-27).
| Model | model_id | attribute_id | credit | Notes |
|-------|----------|-------------|--------|-------|
| Suno (sonic-v4) | `sonic` | **2370** | 25 pts | Default |
| DouBao BGM | `GenBGM` | **4399** | 30 pts | BGM专用 |
| DouBao Song | `GenSong` | **4398** | 30 pts | 歌曲专用 |
| All others | — | → query `/open/v1/product/list` | — | Always runtime query |
### Common Mistakes (and resulting errors)
| Mistake | Error |
|---------|-------|
| `attribute_id` is 0 or missing | `"Invalid product attribute"` → Insufficient points |
| `attribute_id` outdated (production changed) | Same errors; always query product list first |
| `prompt` at outer level | Prompt ignored |
| `cast` missing from inner `parameters` | Billing failure |
| Suno: `model_version` in `parameters` not set to `sonic-v5` | Wrong engine used |
---
## Core Flow
```
1. GET /open/v1/product/list?app=ima&platform=web&category=text_to_music
→ REQUIRED: Get attribute_id, credit, model_version, form_config defaults
2. POST /open/v1/tasks/create
→ Must include: attribute_id, model_name, model_version, credit, cast, prompt (nested!)
3. POST /open/v1/tasks/detail {task_id: "..."}
→ Poll every 3–5s until medias[].resource_status == 1
→ Extract url from completed media (mp3)
```
---
## Supported Task Types
| category | Capability | Input |
|----------|------------|-------|
| `text_to_music` | Text → Music | prompt |
---
## Detail API status values
| Field | Type | Values |
|-------|------|--------|
| **`resource_status`** | int or `null` | `0`=处理中, `1`=可用, `2`=失败, `3`=已删除;`null` 当作 0 |
| **`status`** | string | `"pending"`, `"processing"`, `"success"`, `"failed"` |
| `resource_status` | `status` | Action |
|-------------------|----------|--------|
| `0` or `null` | `pending` / `processing` | Keep polling |
| `1` | `success` (or `completed`) | Stop when **all** medias are 1; read `url` |
| `1` | `failed` | Stop, handle error |
| `2` / `3` | any | Stop, handle error |
> **Important**: Treat `resource_status: null` as 0. Stop only when **all** medias have `resource_status == 1`. Check `status != "failed"` when rs=1.
---
## API 1: Product List
```
GET /open/v1/product/list?app=ima&platform=web&category=text_to_music
```
Returns a **V2 tree structure**: `type=2` nodes are model groups, `type=3` nodes are versions (leaves). Only `type=3` nodes contain `credit_rules` and `form_config`.
**How to pick a version:**
1. Traverse nodes to find `type=3` leaves
2. Use `model_id` and `id` (= `model_version`) from the leaf
3. Pick `credit_rules[].attribute_id`
4. Use `form_config[].value` as default `parameters` values
---
## API 2: Create Task
```
POST /open/v1/tasks/create
```
### text_to_music
No image input. `src_img_url: []`, `input_images: []`.
```json
{
"task_type": "text_to_music",
"enable_multi_model": false,
"src_img_url": [],
"parameters": [{
"attribute_id": "",
"model_id": "",
"model_name": "",
"model_version": "",
"app": "ima",
"platform": "web",
"category": "text_to_music",
"credit": "",
"parameters": {
"prompt": "upbeat electronic, 120 BPM, no vocals",
"n": 1,
"input_images": [],
"cast": {"points": "", "attribute_id": ""}
}
}]
}
```
**Prompt tips for music generation:**
- Genre: `"upbeat electronic"`, `"classical piano"`, `"ambient chill"`
- Tempo: `"120 BPM"`, `"slow tempo"`
- Vocals: `"no vocals"`, `"male vocals"`, `"female vocals"`
- Mood: `"happy"`, `"melancholic"`, `"energetic"`
- Duration hint: `"60 seconds"`, `"short loop"`
**Key fields**:
| Field | Required | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `parameters[].credit` | ✅ | Must equal `credit_rules[].points`. Error 6006 if wrong. |
| `parameters[].parameters.prompt` | ✅ | Prompt must be nested here, NOT at top level. |
| `parameters[].parameters.cast` | ✅ | `{"points": N, "attribute_id": N}` — mirror of credit. |
| `parameters[].parameters.n` | ✅ | Number of outputs (usually `1`). |
Response: `data.id` = task ID for polling.
---
## API 3: Task Detail (Poll)
```
POST /open/v1/tasks/detail
{"task_id": ""}
```
Poll every 3–5s. Completed response:
```json
{
"id": "task_abc",
"medias": [{
"resource_status": 1,
"url": "https://cdn.../output.mp3",
"duration_str": "60s",
"format": "mp3"
}]
}
```
Output fields: `url` (mp3), `duration_str`, `format`.
---
## Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| Placing `prompt` at param top-level | `prompt` must be inside `parameters[].parameters` |
| Wrong `credit` value | Must exactly match `credit_rules[].points` (error 6006) |
| Missing `app` / `platform` in parameters | Required — use `ima` / `web` |
| Single-poll instead of loop | Poll until `resource_status == 1` for ALL medias |
| Not checking `status != "failed"` | `resource_status=1` + `status="failed"` = actual failure |
