Qwen Image (umbrella)

Paths — fixed layout, do not probe or re-derive. The sandbox CWD is the notebook's output directory. This skill's scripts live under Skills/qwen-image/scripts/ relative to it, so run the commands in this file exactly as written. Write every deliverable to the CWD with a bare filename (e.g. -o gen.png): never prefix an output path with Output/ — the CWD is the output directory, so Output/… would create a nested Output/ folder.

Product notebook SD tools cover plain txt2img/img2img without Qwen/Comfy. Use this family when the user needs Qwen Image 2512 BF16 generate, edit, or inpaint via the ComfyUI-video adapter on the GPU host.

PC sandbox → GPU host gateway. Skills run on the workstation; the comfyui-video container runs on the GPU host (guideants-video-stack); the gateway endpoint and token come from the guide Environment (QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_BASE_URL, QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_TOKEN). Do not use 127.0.0.1 — that is the PC, not the GPU host.

When to use product SD tools instead

If the request is a simple notebook image with no Qwen-specific need, use GuideAnts' built-in SD image tools — not these skills.

GPU host gateway (env-configured)

The scripts read QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_BASE_URL and QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_TOKEN from the guide Environment automatically — do not hardcode or export them inline.

Verify before running:

printenv QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_BASE_URL >/dev/null && printenv QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_TOKEN >/dev/null && echo "env ok" || echo "env missing"

If either is missing, stop and ask the user to set it in the guide's Environment variables. Never scan the LAN or guess the GPU host's IP.

GPU host stack: GA_COMFYUI_VIDEO_PORT=8189, GA_QWEN_IMAGE_SKILL_TOKEN in guideants-video-stack/.env. Header: X-Qwen-Image-Skill-Token.

Probe first

python3 Skills/qwen-image/scripts/probe.py
python3 Skills/qwen-image/scripts/preflight.py --for probe

Reporting

Quote probe/preflight evidence when blocked. Deliverables are PNGs written to the CWD (bare filenames).

Honest limits: cold BF16 UNet load can take many minutes; single-host queue; no UI picker.

Edit/inpaint always use tested Lightning (steps=4 cfg=1 lora_strength=1). Do not invent 20-step sampler settings for those skills.
