Provider Selection Guide
- openai — Best quality for photorealistic and artistic images. Model:
gpt-image-1. Supports mask-based inpainting for edits. - gemini — Default:
gemini-2.5-flash-image(fast, cheap). Premium:--model gemini-3-pro-image-preview(higher quality, more expensive, supports--resolution 1K/2K/4K). Prefer Flash unless user requests higher quality. - fal — Default:
seedream45(ByteDance SeedReam 4.5). Also:seedream4,flux-pro,flux-dev,recraft-v3. Or pass raw fal model ID.
