## API Information

This model can be used via our HTTP API or more conveniently via our client libraries.
See the input and output schema below, as well as the usage examples.


### Input Schema

The API accepts the following input parameters:


- **`prompt`** (`string`, _required_):
  The prompt to edit the image.
  - Examples: "Change his clothes to casual suit and tie"

- **`negative_prompt`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Negative prompt for classifier-free guidance. Describes what to avoid in the image. Default value: `""`
  - Default: `""`

- **`guidance_scale`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Guidance scale for classifier-free guidance. Default value: `5`
  - Default: `5`
  - Range: `0` to `20`

- **`seed`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The seed to use for the generation. If not provided, a random seed will be used.

- **`num_inference_steps`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The number of inference steps to perform. Default value: `28`
  - Default: `28`
  - Range: `4` to `50`

- **`image_size`** (`ImageSize | Enum`, _optional_):
  The size of the generated image. If not provided, uses the input image size.
  - One of: ImageSize | Enum
  - Examples: {"height":1152,"width":2016}

- **`num_images`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The number of images to generate. Default value: `1`
  - Default: `1`
  - Range: `1` to `4`

- **`acceleration`** (`AccelerationEnum`, _optional_):
  The acceleration level to use for image generation. Default value: `"regular"`
  - Default: `"regular"`
  - Options: `"none"`, `"regular"`, `"high"`

- **`sync_mode`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If `True`, the media will be returned as a data URI. Output is not stored when this is True.
  - Default: `false`

- **`enable_safety_checker`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If set to true, the safety checker will be enabled. Default value: `true`
  - Default: `true`

- **`output_format`** (`OutputFormatEnum`, _optional_):
  The format of the generated image. Default value: `"png"`
  - Default: `"png"`
  - Options: `"jpeg"`, `"png"`, `"webp"`

- **`enable_cns`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  Enable Colored Noise Sampling (CNS), a stochastic SDE sampler. Off by default; when enabled the cns_* parameters below take effect.
  - Default: `false`

- **`cns_s_churn`** (`float`, _optional_):
  How much stochastic (colored) noise is injected after each step. 0 = CNS off, i.e. pure deterministic flow-matching (identical to normal klein); higher = more stochasticity. Turn this first; the other CNS parameters only matter when s_churn > 0. Default value: `0.5`
  - Default: `0.5`
  - Range: `0` to `2`

- **`cns_gamma_source`** (`CNSGammaSourceEnum`, _optional_):
  Where the per-frequency progress signal gamma(f, t) comes from. 'approximation' is self-contained but uniform across bands, so the frequency shaping comes entirely from the alpha-tilt parameters. 'matrix' uses the precomputed per-band gamma for true spectral-bias-aware coloring (more noise to genuinely under-resolved bands). Default value: `"matrix"`
  - Default: `"matrix"`
  - Options: `"matrix"`, `"approximation"`

- **`cns_power_gamma`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Exponent on the residual (1 - gamma). Higher concentrates noise more aggressively on unresolved bands; lower is gentler and flatter. No effect under 'approximation', where gamma is uniform. Default value: `0.75`
  - Default: `0.75`
  - Range: `0.1` to `3`

- **`cns_gamma_divider`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Divides gamma first, weakening the coloring (pushing it toward uniform white noise). Paper uses 1.73 for distilled/unguided and 25.0 for CFG/base, so raise this for the /base (CFG) endpoints. Default value: `1.73`
  - Default: `1.73`
  - Range: `0.1` to `50`

- **`cns_alpha_tilt_start`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Frequency tilt at the start of sampling, interpolated toward the end value over steps. Positive boosts high frequencies (fine texture/detail); negative boosts low frequencies (structure). Default value: `0.15`
  - Default: `0.15`
  - Range: `-2` to `2`

- **`cns_alpha_tilt_end`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Frequency tilt at the end of sampling. Positive boosts high frequencies (fine texture/detail); negative boosts low frequencies (structure). The default favors low-frequency structure at the end. Default value: `-0.5`
  - Default: `-0.5`
  - Range: `-2` to `2`

- **`cns_alpha_use_fnorm`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  Use a smooth, frequency-position-weighted tilt (exp(alpha * f)) instead of a flat (1 + alpha) multiplier. Default value: `true`
  - Default: `true`

- **`cns_alpha_exp_interp`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  Use an exponential (vs linear) curve for the start-to-end tilt transition across sampling steps. Default value: `true`
  - Default: `true`

- **`cns_alpha_exp_sharpness`** (`float`, _optional_):
  How sharp the exponential tilt-interpolation curve is. Only used when exponential interpolation is enabled. Default value: `0.75`
  - Default: `0.75`
  - Range: `0.1` to `10`

- **`cns_num_freq_bins`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  How many radial frequency bands the spectrum is split into. More bands = finer-grained coloring. Default value: `32`
  - Default: `32`
  - Range: `8` to `128`

- **`cns_energy_scale`** (`float`, _optional_):
  Global multiplier on the injected colored noise after variance normalisation. <1 slightly damps the kick, >1 amplifies it (paper: 0.98 unguided, 0.998 guided). Default value: `0.98`
  - Default: `0.98`
  - Range: `0.5` to `1.5`

- **`image_urls`** (`list<string>`, _required_):
  The URLs of the images for editing. A maximum of 4 images are allowed.
  - Array of string
  - Examples: ["https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/flux2_dev_edit_input.png"]

- **`loras`** (`list<fal-ai_flux-2-klein_LoRAInput>`, _optional_):
  List of LoRA weights to apply (maximum 3).
  - Default: `[]`
  - Array of fal-ai_flux-2-klein_LoRAInput
