Hermes Image Studio: plugin for Hermes Agent

FAL.ai image generation plugin with 11 presets, editing, inpainting, upscaling and image-to-video

What Hermes Image Studio does

Hermes Image Studio registers 13 tools in an image-studio toolset, all running through FAL.ai. Eight presets target FLUX models (cinematic, photorealistic, vintage, fantasy, illustration, minimalist, noir and studio), two use GPT Image (gpt-photo on GPT Image 1.5 and gpt-art on GPT Image 2), and banana-photo uses Nano Banana 2. Generation supports negative prompts, 2 to 8 batch variants with random seeds, and sizes for Twitter, Instagram and YouTube thumbnails.

Beyond generation, it edits an image from a new prompt with GPT Image 1.5, replaces masked regions with FLUX Pro Inpaint, animates stills into MP4 clips with Kling v3 Pro or Veo 3.1 Fast, and upscales images 2x. A prompt library saves named prompts, every generation is logged in a local SQLite history with its estimated FAL cost, and a self-contained HTML gallery can be filtered by preset and model. Files are saved with descriptive names to a configurable output directory.
