# Mana Image Generation Service Local AI image generation using **FLUX.2 klein 4B** model via flux2.c. ## Features - **Fast**: Sub-second generation on Apple Silicon - **Efficient**: ~4-5 GB RAM (memory-mapped weights) - **Open**: Apache 2.0 license (commercial use) - **Local**: 100% on-device, no API keys needed ## Requirements - macOS with Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) - 16 GB RAM minimum - ~20 GB disk space (model + binary) - Python 3.11+ ## Quick Start ```bash # 1. Run setup (installs flux2.c + downloads model) ./setup.sh # 2. Start the service source .venv/bin/activate FLUX_BINARY=/opt/flux2/flux FLUX_MODEL_DIR=/opt/flux2/model \ uvicorn app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3025 # 3. Generate an image curl -X POST http://localhost:3025/generate \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"prompt": "A cat wearing sunglasses"}' | jq ``` ## API ### Generate Image ```bash POST /generate Content-Type: application/json { "prompt": "A beautiful mountain landscape", "width": 1024, "height": 1024, "steps": 4, "seed": -1, "output_format": "png" } ``` Response: ```json { "success": true, "image_url": "/images/abc123.png", "prompt": "A beautiful mountain landscape", "width": 1024, "height": 1024, "steps": 4, "seed": 42, "generation_time": 0.85 } ``` ### Get Image ```bash GET /images/{filename} ``` ### Health Check ```bash GET /health ``` ### Model Info ```bash GET /models ``` ## Environment Variables | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `PORT` | `3025` | Service port | | `FLUX_BINARY` | `/opt/flux2/flux` | flux2.c binary path | | `FLUX_MODEL_DIR` | `/opt/flux2/model` | Model weights path | | `DEFAULT_STEPS` | `4` | Sampling steps | | `DEFAULT_WIDTH` | `1024` | Default width | | `DEFAULT_HEIGHT` | `1024` | Default height | ## Model **FLUX.2 klein 4B** by Black Forest Labs (January 2026) - 4 billion parameters - Apache 2.0 license - Optimized for 4 sampling steps - Sub-second inference on consumer GPUs ## Credits - [flux2.c](https://github.com/antirez/flux2.c) - Pure C implementation by antirez - [Black Forest Labs](https://bfl.ai) - FLUX.2 model
