description: Generates images and videos using MuleRouter or MuleRun multimodal APIs. Text-to-Image, Image-to-Image, Text-to-Video, Image-to-Video, video editing (VACE, keyframe interpolation). Use when the user wants to generate, edit, or transform images and videos using AI models like Wan2.6 or Nano Banana.

# MuleRouter API

Generate images and videos using MuleRouter or MuleRun multimodal APIs.

## Configuration Check

Before running any commands, verify the environment is configured:

### Step 1: Check for existing configuration

```bash
# Check environment variables
echo "MULEROUTER_SITE: $MULEROUTER_SITE"
echo "MULEROUTER_API_KEY: ${MULEROUTER_API_KEY:+[SET]}"

# Check for .env file
ls -la .env 2>/dev/null || echo "No .env file found"
```

### Step 2: Configure if needed

**Option A: Environment variables**
```bash
export MULEROUTER_SITE="mulerun"    # or "mulerouter"
export MULEROUTER_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

**Option B: Create .env file**

Create `.env` in the current working directory:

```env
MULEROUTER_SITE=mulerun
MULEROUTER_API_KEY=your-api-key
```

**Note:** The tool only reads `.env` from the current directory. Run scripts from the skill root (`skills/mulerouter-skills/`).

### Step 3: Using `uv` to run scripts

The skill uses `uv` for dependency management and execution. Make sure `uv` is installed and available in your PATH.

Run `uv sync` to install dependencies.

## Quick Start

### 1. List available models

```bash
uv run python scripts/list_models.py
```

### 2. Check model parameters

```bash
uv run python models/alibaba/wan2.6-t2v/generation.py --list-params
```

### 3. Generate content

**Text-to-Video:**
```bash
uv run python models/alibaba/wan2.6-t2v/generation.py --prompt "A cat walking through a garden"
```

**Text-to-Image:**
```bash
uv run python models/alibaba/wan2.6-t2i/generation.py --prompt "A serene mountain lake"
```

**Image-to-Video:**
```bash
uv run python models/alibaba/wan2.6-i2v/generation.py --prompt "Gentle zoom in" --images '["https://example.com/photo.jpg"]'
```

## Workflow

1. Check configuration: verify `MULEROUTER_SITE` and `MULEROUTER_API_KEY` are set
2. Install dependencies: run `uv sync`
3. Run `uv run python scripts/list_models.py` to discover available models
4. Run `uv run python models/<path>/<action>.py --list-params` to see parameters
5. Execute with appropriate parameters
6. Parse output URLs from results

## Tips
1. For an image generation model, a suggested timeout is 5 minutes.
2. For a video generation model, a suggested timeout is 15 minutes.
