GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst

Endpoint

POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/image/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst

Send your API key as a bearer token. The key needs the scope api:write. Every paid request also needs an Idempotency-Key header.

The envelope fields quote_only, quote_id, webhook_url and wait_timeout_seconds behave the same on each model endpoint. Refer to Jobs and Quotes and credits.

Good at

GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is OpenAI's precision image model on fal. fal describes it as "built for premium visual work, extra fidelity on intricate detail, in exchange for longer generation times". Use it when a headline, a wordmark or a UI mockup must be exact and a longer wait is acceptable. Use it with up to 8 references for a maskless edit; fal permits 16, roasOS caps at 8. It accepts avatar_id: the saved avatar's front and full-body shots lead the reference list and count as 2 of the 8. avatar_outfit requires avatar_id. fal describes the sunburst edit as "edits scoped precisely to the instruction, with subject and composition preserved across many rounds of revision". Set background to transparent for a PNG cutout with alpha. The request fields, the reference cap and the price table are the same as /v1/image/gpt-image-2.5. Do not use it for photoreal handheld product shots. Do not use it for subject continuity across many references. Likeness quality on GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is not yet measured; Nano Banana Pro remains the measured identity lane. Use /v1/image/gpt-image-2.5 when speed matters more than detail. For a masked, positional edit use /v1/image-edit/gpt-image-2.5, which already runs the sunburst editor.

Pricing

The unit is one image. Pricing keys: gpt-image-2.5-high, gpt-image-2.5-low, gpt-image-2.5-medium.

The catalog has no credit example for this model. Send quote_only: true to get the price.

Modes

• text-to-image
• image-edit

roasOS selects the mode from the media fields of your request. You do not send a mode.

Provider endpoints: openai/gpt-image-2.5/sunburst/edit · openai/gpt-image-2.5/sunburst/text-to-image.

Request fields

The schema is strict. A field that is not in this table gets 400 unsupported_option. The field names are the roasOS role names. One role has one name in every family.

Media

This endpoint accepts these media roles:

• avatar_id — identity; the saved character reference sheet, with a derived portrait only where the model requires a single face or source frame
• product_id — product; resolves to the product image list
• product_images — product reference images
• references — style and appearance references

Every other role is refused: elements, reference_images, image_url, end_image_url, scene_id, scene_image, video_urls, video_url, audio_urls, audio_url, voice_id. A refused role gets 400 unsupported_option.

Prompt

Limit: 10,000 characters including the wrapper (the wrapper is added only with product media). fal accepts 32,000. No tag syntax.

• Treat body-text lines as exact strings. Put each rendered string in quotation marks.
• Render critical text at 25 % or more of the canvas height.
• State exact element counts ("EXACTLY THREE message rows").
• Keep all text and focal subjects inside the central 84 % of the canvas.
• Name the layout, the type style and the color of each text block.
• Describe the fine detail you pay the extra time for: material, texture, edge, letterform.
• On a bad result, write a new prompt that names the fix; do not send the same payload again. Stop after two retries.

Not exposed

These catalog entries describe omitted inputs, pinned values and source constraints. They do not imply that the provider accepts every listed field.

• quality — these values are not available: auto, xhigh, max.
• output_compression — not accepted by this public endpoint.
• image_size — pinned to seven fixed sizes in text-to-image, auto in an edit.
• output_format — pinned to png.
• sync_mode — pinned to false.
• mask_url — pinned to reachable only through the inpaint endpoint.
• references — pinned to 8 images including the avatar's two shots; fal permits 16.
• prompt — pinned to characters 10,001–32,000.
• seed — not accepted by this public endpoint.
• negative_prompt — not accepted by this public endpoint.

Result

The result kind is image. Always present: nothing. Present when the run makes it: avatar_id, full_body_url, images, portrait_url, provider_seed, reference_sheet, url.

Example

The three steps are always the same: quote, run, poll.

# 1. Quote. Nothing is spent.
curl -X POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/image/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..." \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: 0f1c9e2a-gpt-image-2.5-sunburst-0001" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quote_only":true,"prompt":"A woman holds the bottle at eye level in a bright kitchen, morning light, static camera."}'
# 200 { "data": { "kind": "quote", "quote_id": "q_7Hk...", "credits": ..., "expires_at": "...",
#        "confirmation": { "model": "gpt-image-2.5-sunburst" } } }

# 2. Run. Same body, same Idempotency-Key, quote_id in place of quote_only.
curl -X POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/image/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..." \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: 0f1c9e2a-gpt-image-2.5-sunburst-0001" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quote_id":"q_7Hk...","prompt":"A woman holds the bottle at eye level in a bright kitchen, morning light, static camera."}'
# 201 { "data": { "id": "gen_...", "status": "queued", "credits_reserved": ... } }

# 3. Poll, then read the result.
curl https://api.roasos.com/v1/jobs/gen_.../status -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..."
curl https://api.roasos.com/v1/jobs/gen_.../result -H "Authorization: Bearer roasos_sk_live_..."

The deprecated path

POST /v1/generations still reaches this model for one minor version. It is deprecated. This is how it maps:

POST /v1/image/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst is live. quality_tier (low, medium, high, default high) selects the price; fal's auto, xhigh and max are not exposed, because fal publishes no price for them. aspect_ratio is refused in an edit; the output follows the source image. POST /v1/generations with model: "gpt-image-2.5-sunburst" reaches the text-to-image mode for one minor version; there resolution carries the quality tier. Expect a longer generation time than GPT Image 2.5. Not reachable from the agent today.
