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
requestsrequired) - ✅ Secure credential handling with file permissions
Security
This skill prioritizes security:
- No webhook support - Removed to prevent SSRF risks
- Stdlib dependencies - Minimal attack surface (uses
urllibonly) - File-based credentials - Primary credential source with secure permissions
Credential Sources (in order of precedence)
- CLI arguments:
--key-idand--secret(for one-off use) - File:
~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json
Note on Subprocess
The --usage flag uses subprocess.run(["open", ...]) to open the usage dashboard in a browser. This is the only subprocess call in the skill.
Setup
- Get your Krea.ai API credentials from https://docs.krea.ai/developers/api-keys-and-billing
- Create the credentials file:
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/credentials- Add your credentials:
echo '{"apiKey": "YOUR_KEY_ID:YOUR_SECRET"}' > ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json- Set secure permissions:
chmod 600 ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.jsonUsage
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 10Python Script
from krea_api import KreaAPI
api = KreaAPI() # Reads from ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json
# Generate and wait
urls = api.generate_and_wait(
prompt="A serene Japanese garden",
model="flux",
width=1024,
height=1024
)

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

Or list recent jobs:
python3 krea_api.py --jobs 10File Locations
| Purpose | Path |
|---|---|
| Credentials | ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json |
| Script | {skill}/krea_api.py |
| Skill docs | {skill}/SKILL.md |
Troubleshooting
"API credentials required"
- Check credentials file exists:
cat ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json- Verify permissions:
ls -la ~/.openclaw/credentials/krea.json
# Should show: -rw-------- 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.
