Generate, Refine, and Share an Image

This guide creates an image, performs a second image-to-image pass, and shares the finished file with a human.

1. Choose a current model.

   anycap image models
   anycap image models <model-id> schema --mode text-to-image

2. Generate the first version.

   anycap image generate \
     --prompt "cat in a tiny chef hat, editorial studio portrait" \
     --model <model-id> \
     -o chef-cat.png

3. Inspect image-to-image controls.

   anycap image models <model-id> schema --mode image-to-image

4. Refine the local file.

   anycap image generate \
     --prompt "add warm window light; preserve the cat and chef hat" \
     --model <model-id> \
     --mode image-to-image \
     --param images=./chef-cat.png \
     -o chef-cat-warm.png

5. Upload only the finished result.

   anycap drive upload chef-cat-warm.png --parent-path /deliverables
   anycap drive share --src-path /deliverables/chef-cat-warm.png --expires 7d

Drive is the delivery step

The edit command accepts chef-cat.png directly and uploads it internally. Drive is only needed when a human needs a shareable browser link.

Automate the returned link

SHARE_URL=$(anycap drive share \
  --src-path /deliverables/chef-cat-warm.png \
  --expires 7d | jq -r '.url')
printf 'Shareable image: %s\n' "$SHARE_URL"

Keep share expiration as short as the collaboration requires.
