glm-image

Generate images using GLM-Image API. Use when the user wants to generate, create, or draw an image from a text prompt. Triggers on requests like "generate an image of...", "create a picture of...", "draw...", or any image generation request.

Why use this skill?

Add image generation capabilities to your OpenClaw agent. Supports GLM and OpenRouter for creating high-quality AI art from text prompts quickly and easily.

skill-install — Terminal

Install via CLI (Recommended)

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/chunhualiao/glm-image
Or

What This Skill Does

The glm-image skill is a powerful extension for the OpenClaw AI agent that enables high-quality image generation directly from your terminal or AI interface. By leveraging industry-leading APIs like GLM (Zhipu AI) or OpenRouter, the agent can translate natural language descriptions into creative visual assets. Whether you are drafting conceptual art, visualizing data points, or simply experimenting with generative AI, this skill streamlines the entire creative workflow within the OpenClaw ecosystem.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw installation manager:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/chunhualiao/glm-image

Once installed, ensure you have an active API key from either Zhipu AI (BigModel) or OpenRouter. You can manage these keys via your environment variables or the ~/.openclaw/config.json configuration file. Refer to the documentation for your specific provider to complete the authentication setup before triggering your first generation.

Use Cases

The glm-image skill is designed for versatility. Typical use cases include:

  • Conceptual Design: Generate rapid prototypes or mood boards for web and graphic design projects.
  • Content Creation: Produce unique illustrations, backgrounds, or social media imagery based on specific thematic prompts.
  • Visual Aid Generation: Create descriptive images to accompany technical documentation or presentations.
  • Creative Experimentation: Explore how different model parameters and prompt engineering techniques affect visual output.

Example Prompts

  1. "Generate an image of a futuristic city with neon lights and flying cars."
  2. "Create a picture of a calm forest landscape during autumn in a watercolor style."
  3. "Draw a minimalist logo for a tech startup focusing on artificial intelligence."

Tips & Limitations

  • Mandatory Language Selection: Always specify the language code (e.g., 'en', 'zh', 'ja') when prompted. The skill requires this to correctly interpret prompt nuances and generate the best possible imagery.
  • Provider Preference: If you have both keys configured, the system defaults to GLM. You can override this using the --provider openrouter flag.
  • API Limits: Be mindful of your provider's rate limits and subscription tier. Large batches of generation requests may impact your API quota.
  • Prompt Quality: For better results, describe the subject, style, lighting, and composition explicitly in your prompt.
