extremerouter-image

extremerouter-image is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rsalmn/ExtremeRouter. It costs 75 tokens per session (1,047 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of 9router-image, MIT.

An image-generation interface that sends a text description to a selected image model and returns generated image data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create images from prompts, choose a model, set dimensions or quality, and receive a URL, base64 data, or raw image bytes.
Why use it?
It provides one endpoint for working with image models from several providers instead of integrating each provider separately.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

extremerouter-image scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

ExtremeRouter — Image Generation

Requires NINEROUTER_URL (and NINEROUTER_KEY if auth enabled). See https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rsalmn/extremerouter/refs/heads/master/skills/extremerouter/SKILL.md for setup.

Discover

curl $NINEROUTER_URL/v1/models/image | jq '.data[].id'
# Per-model params/options (size enum, quality enum, capabilities like edit)
curl "$NINEROUTER_URL/v1/models/info?id=openai/dall-e-3"

Endpoint

POST $NINEROUTER_URL/v1/images/generations

Field Required Notes
model yes from /v1/models/image
prompt yes image description
n no count (provider-dependent)
size no 1024x1024, 1792x1024, ...
quality no standard / hd (OpenAI)
response_format no url (default) or b64_json

Add query ?response_format=binary to receive raw image bytes (handy for saving file).

Examples

Save to file (binary):

curl -X POST "$NINEROUTER_URL/v1/images/generations?response_format=binary" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NINEROUTER_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"gemini/gemini-3-pro-image-preview","prompt":"watercolor mountains at sunrise","size":"1024x1024"}' \
  --output out.png

JS (URL response):

const r = await fetch(`${process.env.NINEROUTER_URL}/v1/images/generations`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Authorization": `Bearer ${process.env.NINEROUTER_KEY}`, "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({ model: "gemini/gemini-3-pro-image-preview", prompt: "neon city", size: "1024x1024" }),
});
const { data } = await r.json();
console.log(data[0].url || data[0].b64_json.slice(0, 40));

Response shape

JSON (default response_format=url):

{ "created": 1735000000, "data": [{ "url": "https://..." }] }

response_format=b64_json:

{ "created": 1735000000, "data": [{ "b64_json": "iVBORw0KGgo..." }] }

Query ?response_format=binary returns raw image bytes (Content-Type image/png or image/jpeg).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
