README (SKILL.md)
DashScope Image Generation (qwen-image-max)
Use this skill to generate an image from a text prompt through DashScope compatible-mode.
Quick start
Preferred (no secrets in shell history):
export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="..."
./scripts/dashscope_image_gen.py --prompt "a cute robot, watercolor" --out robot.png
Optional params (best-effort; support depends on DashScope):
./scripts/dashscope_image_gen.py --prompt "industrial factory at night" --size 1024x1024 --n 1 --out factory.png
What to do when it fails
- Re-run with the same command and copy the HTTP error body.
- If the error indicates a different route/payload than OpenAI Images API:
- Update
scripts/dashscope_image_gen.pyaccordingly. - Update
references/dashscope-openai-compatible.mdwith the correct details.
- Update

Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be coherent and implements a simple CLI that calls DashScope's compatible images API. Before installing or running: (1) be aware the script needs your DashScope API key (DASHSCOPE_API_KEY) but the registry metadata does not list it — provide the key via environment variable or config rather than the --api-key flag to avoid shell history leakage; (2) the script will read ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json as a fallback, so review that file for other secrets before reusing it; (3) confirm the base URL (https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1) is the expected endpoint for your account; (4) inspect the small included script yourself (it's short and readable) if you have doubts; and (5) avoid pasting high‑privilege credentials on the command line.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: dashscope-image-gen
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides a straightforward implementation for generating images via the Alibaba DashScope API. The script `scripts/dashscope_image_gen.py` follows standard practices for handling API keys (env vars or local config) and uses the Python standard library to communicate with the official DashScope endpoint. No malicious behaviors, obfuscation, or data exfiltration were detected.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the implementation: the script posts to {baseUrl}/images/generations using model qwen-image-max. Minor mismatch: the skill metadata lists no required env vars, but both SKILL.md and the script expect an API key (DASHSCOPE_API_KEY or --api-key). This is proportionate to the stated purpose but should have been declared.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions and the script stay within the image-generation task: they build an images/generations payload, send it to the configured base URL, and write the returned image bytes to disk. The script will also attempt to read ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json as a fallback to find an API key — that is reasonable for convenience but is outside the minimal instructions and should be noted.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; this is an instruction-only skill with a small included CLI script. Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by an installer step.
Credentials
The script requires a DashScope API key to function (DASHSCOPE_API_KEY or --api-key, or an entry in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json). Requesting a single service API key is proportionate. The skill did not declare this env var in the registry metadata — a metadata omission rather than excessive privilege. The fallback read of ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json reads the user config file to obtain the key.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not modify other skills or system settings, and runs only when invoked. No elevated persistence or unexpected privileges observed.
