Krea.ai Image Generation Skill

Generate images using Krea.ai's API with support for multiple models including Flux, Imagen 4, Ideogram 3.0, and more.

Features

  • ✅ Async job-based generation (POST → poll → result)
  • ✅ Support for multiple image models
  • ✅ Configurable parameters (width, height, steps, guidance, seed)
  • ✅ Stdlib-only dependencies (no requests required)
  • ✅ Security-first credential handling (file-only, no subprocess)

Security

This skill prioritizes security:

  • No subprocess calls - Credentials read directly from file only
  • No webhook support - Removed to prevent SSRF risks
  • File-based credentials - Single credential source
  • Stdlib dependencies - Minimal attack surface

Setup

  1. Get your Krea.ai API credentials from https://docs.krea.ai/developers/api-keys-and-billing
  2. Create the credentials file:
mkdir -p ~/.clawdbot/credentials
  1. Add your credentials:
echo '{"apiKey": "YOUR_KEY_ID:YOUR_SECRET"}' > ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json
  1. Set secure permissions:
chmod 600 ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json

Usage

Command Line

# Generate an image
python3 krea_api.py --prompt "A sunset over the ocean"

# With specific model
python3 krea_api.py --prompt "Cyberpunk city" --model imagen-4

# Custom size
python3 krea_api.py --prompt "Portrait" --width 1024 --height 1280

# List available models
python3 krea_api.py --list-models

# Check recent jobs
python3 krea_api.py --jobs 10

Python Script

from krea_api import KreaAPI

api = KreaAPI()  # Reads from ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json

# Generate and wait
urls = api.generate_and_wait(
    prompt="A serene Japanese garden",
    model="flux",
    width=1024,
    height=1024
)
print(urls)

Parameters

Parameter Type Default Description
prompt str required Image description (max 1800 chars)
model str "flux" Model name from table below
width int 1024 Image width (512-2368)
height int 1024 Image height (512-2368)
steps int 25 Generation steps (1-100)
guidance_scale float 3.0 Guidance scale (0-24)
seed str None Random seed for reproducibility

Available Models

Model Best For

Check Usage

Krea.ai doesn't provide a public usage API. Check your usage at:

Or list recent jobs:

python3 krea_api.py --jobs 10

File Locations

Purpose Path
Credentials ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json
Script {skill}/krea_api.py
Skills {skill}/SKILL.md

Troubleshooting

"API credentials required"

  1. Check credentials file exists:
cat ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json
  1. Verify permissions:
ls -la ~/.clawdbot/credentials/krea.json
# Should show: -rw-------
  1. Check format (must have colon):
{"apiKey": "KEY_ID:SECRET"}

Model not found

Run python3 krea_api.py --list-models to see available models.

Thanks to Claude Opus 4.5 for researching the correct API structure. The docs incorrectly suggest /v1/images/flux but the working endpoint is /generate/image/bfl/flux-1-dev.
