API Key — check in this order

1. WAVESPEED_API_KEY env var — already set in all Clawster containers, just use it directly
2. TOOLS.md in the workspace — look for WaveSpeed AI section
3. Ask the user

Never search for the key — if WAVESPEED_API_KEY is in the environment, it's ready to go. Check with:

echo $WAVESPEED_API_KEY

See references/models.md for full model list with IDs, params, and pricing.

Important Notes

• Image editing (nbp, nb-edit): always pass images as images: [url] array — this is required
• Face preservation: google/nano-banana-pro/edit is the best model for editing photos while keeping the person's face identical
• Output files are saved to current directory by default; use --output to specify path
• Videos can take 2-5 minutes; script auto-polls with progress indicator
• For multiple input images (multi-reference editing), use --images url1,url2
