Doubao Image Generation Skill

Generate images using ByteDance's Doubao (豆包) AI image generation service via browser automation.

Requirements

• OpenClaw browser (headless or profile) with access to https://www.doubao.com
• Doubao account must be logged in
• Workspace directory for temporary file storage

Usage

Basic Image Generation

1. Navigate to https://www.doubao.com and open the image generation mode
2. Enter the prompt and submit
3. Wait for generation to complete (typically 20-30 seconds)
4. Extract and download the generated images
5. Send images to the user

Step-by-Step Process

1. Open Doubao Image Generation

browser(action="open", url="https://www.doubao.com/chat/create-image", profile="openclaw")

Or navigate to existing chat with image gen history:

browser(action="snapshot", profile="openclaw")

2. Enter Prompt

Find the text input and enter the image description:

browser(action="act", kind="fill", ref=\x3Ctextbox-ref>, text="\x3Cprompt>", profile="openclaw")
browser(action="act", kind="press", key="Enter", profile="openclaw")

3. Wait for Generation

Wait 10-20 seconds for the images to generate:

exec(command="sleep 15")

Then check if images are ready by taking a screenshot.

4. Extract Image URLs

Use browser evaluate to extract image URLs from the page:

// Find all generated images (image_generation URL pattern)
const imgs = document.querySelectorAll('img[src*="image_generation"]');
const urls = Array.from(imgs).map(img => ({
  src: img.src,
  w: img.naturalWidth,
  h: img.naturalHeight
}));

5. Download Images

Use the image_pre_watermark_1_5b URL variant for highest quality (1773×2364):

curl -L -H "Referer: https://www.doubao.com/" \
  -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7)" \
  -o output.png "\x3Curl_with_image_pre_watermark>"

If the image_pre_watermark URL fails (signature mismatch), fall back to extracting via browser CDP WebSocket:

// Connect to CDP and extract image via canvas
const dataUrl = await new Promise(resolve => {
  const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
  canvas.width = img.naturalWidth;
  canvas.height = img.naturalHeight;
  const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
  ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
  canvas.toBlob(blob => {
    const reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = () => resolve(reader.result);
    reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
  }, 'image/png');
});

6. Send to User

Use sendAttachment for BlueBubbles/iMessage:

message(action="sendAttachment", channel="bluebubbles", filePath="\x3Cpath>")

Image URL Patterns

Doubao CDN serves multiple versions of generated images:

Important: Each URL requires a unique CDN signature (x-signature). You cannot simply swap URL suffixes — the signature must match the specific image and URL type.

Prompts for Best Results

For high-quality image generation, include these keywords in prompts:

• Quality: "高精度", "高品质", "8K", "超高分辨率"
• Style: "专业摄影棚灯光", "工作室渲染", "景深效果"
• Details: "精美的细节", "精细纹理"

Troubleshooting

1. Page not loading: Ensure browser has network access and Doubao is accessible
2. Login required: Check if Doubao session is still active via screenshot
3. Images not generating: Check for content policy blocks in the prompt
4. Download fails: Use browser CDP WebSocket extraction instead of direct download
5. BlueBubbles media path blocked: Use sendAttachment action instead of send with filePath

Example Prompts

战斗暴龙兽3D手办，高精度模型，精美的细节，金属质感盔甲，蓝色闪耀的勇气之盾，动感战斗姿态，站在岩石底座上，专业摄影棚灯光，工作室渲染，高品质，8K

可爱柴犬头像，日式插画风格，柔和配色，圆润线条，温暖光影，专业插画师作品

赛博朋克城市夜景，霓虹灯，高楼大厦，雨天反射，电影级渲染，超高清细节

Notes

• Doubao free tier has daily generation limits
• Generated images are stored in CDN with time-limited signatures
• Browser automation is required due to lack of public API
• Always use sendAttachment for BlueBubbles to avoid media path issues
