  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by agentbay-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Qwen Image AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/agentbay-ai/agentbay-skills/tree/main/qwen-image
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/agentbay-ai/agentbay-skills.git /tmp/agentbay-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/agentbay-skills/qwen-image .claude/skills/qwen-image
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Qwen Image in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Qwen Image on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Qwen Image is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Qwen Image

Generate high-quality images using Alibaba Cloud's Qwen Image API (通义万相).

Usage

Generate an image (returns URL only):

bash
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "一副典雅庄重的对联悬挂于厅堂之中" --size "1664*928" --api-key sk-xxx

Generate and save locally:

bash
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "一副典雅庄重的对联悬挂于厅堂之中" --size "1664*928" --api-key sk-xxx

With custom model: Support qwen-image-max-2025-12-30 qwen-image-plus-2026-01-09 qwen-image-plus

bash
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/generate_image.py --prompt "a beautiful sunset over mountains" --model qwen-image-plus-2026-01-09 --api-key sk-xxx

API Key

You can obtain the API key and run the image generation command in the following order.

  • Get apiKey from models.providers.bailian.apiKey in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
  • Or get from skills."qwen-image".apiKey in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
  • Or get from DASHSCOPE_API_KEY environment variable
  • Or Get your API key from: https://dashscope.console.aliyun.com/

Options

Sizes:

  • 1664*928 (default) - 16:9 landscape
  • 1024*1024 - Square format
  • 720*1280 - 9:16 portrait
  • 1280*720 - 16:9 landscape (smaller)

Additional flags:

  • --negative-prompt "unwanted elements" - Specify what to avoid
  • --no-prompt-extend - Disable automatic prompt enhancement
  • --watermark - Add watermark to generated image
  • --no-verify-ssl - Disable SSL certificate verification (use when behind corporate proxy)

Workflow

  1. Execute the generate_image.py script with the user's prompt
  2. Parse the script output and find the line starting with MEDIA_URL:
  3. Extract the image URL from that line (format: MEDIA_URL: https://...)
  4. Display the image to the user using markdown syntax: ![Generated Image](URL)
  5. Do NOT download or save the image unless the user specifically requests it

Notes

  • Supports both Chinese and English prompts
  • By default, returns image URL directly without downloading
  • The script prints MEDIA_URL: in the output - extract this URL and display it using markdown image syntax: ![generated image](URL)
  • Always look for the line starting with MEDIA_URL: in the script output and render the image for the user
  • Default negative prompt helps avoid common AI artifacts
  • Images are hosted on Alibaba Cloud OSS with temporary access URLs

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Qwen Image AI skill do?

Generate images using Qwen Image API (Alibaba Cloud DashScope). Use when users request image generation with Chinese prompts or need high-quality AI-generated images from text descriptions.

Why use Qwen Image on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Qwen Image is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Qwen Image in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/agentbay-ai/agentbay-skills/tree/main/qwen-image. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Qwen Image?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Qwen Image?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Qwen Image with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Qwen Image AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by agentbay-ai. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
