$0 (search | schema | run | status | result | upload)$1 (model_id, search query, or file path)$2, $3, etc. (additional parameters)$ARGUMENTSSave generated files to session folder:
mkdir -p ~/.fal/sessions/${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}
Downloaded images/videos go to:
~/.fal/sessions/${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}/
Requires
FAL_KEY environment variable. If requests fail with 401, tell user:
Get an API key from https://fal.ai/dashboard/keys Then: export FAL_KEY="your-key-here"
$0Search for models matching
$1:
curl -s "https://api.fal.ai/v1/models?q=$1&limit=15" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq -r '.models[] | "• \(.endpoint_id) — \(.metadata.display_name) [\(.metadata.category)]"'
For category search, use:
curl -s "https://api.fal.ai/v1/models?category=$1&limit=15" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq -r '.models[] | "• \(.endpoint_id) — \(.metadata.display_name)"'
Categories:
text-to-image, image-to-video, text-to-video, image-to-3d, training, speech-to-text, text-to-speech
Get input schema for model
$1:
curl -s "https://api.fal.ai/v1/models?endpoint_id=$1&expand=openapi-3.0" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq '.models[0].openapi.components.schemas.Input.properties'
Show required vs optional fields to help user understand what inputs are needed.
Run model
$1 with parameters from remaining arguments.
Step 1: Parse parameters Extract
--key value pairs from $ARGUMENTS after the model_id to build JSON payload.
Example:
/fal run fal-ai/flux-2 --prompt "a cat" --image_size landscape_16_9
→ Model: fal-ai/flux-2
→ Payload: {"prompt": "a cat", "image_size": "landscape_16_9"}
Step 2: Submit to queue
curl -s -X POST "https://queue.fal.run/$1" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '<JSON_PAYLOAD>'
Step 3: Poll until complete
# Get request_id from response, then poll: while true; do STATUS=$(curl -s "https://queue.fal.run/$1/requests/$REQUEST_ID/status" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq -r '.status') echo "Status: $STATUS" if [ "$STATUS" = "COMPLETED" ]; then break; fi if [ "$STATUS" = "FAILED" ]; then echo "Job failed"; break; fi sleep 3 done
Step 4: Get result and save
# Fetch result RESULT=$(curl -s "https://queue.fal.run/$1/requests/$REQUEST_ID" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY")Create session output folder
mkdir -p ~/.fal/sessions/${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}
Download images/videos
For images: jq -r '.images[0].url' and curl to download
Save as: ~/.fal/sessions/${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}/<timestamp>_<model>.png
Check status of request
$2 for model $1:
curl -s "https://queue.fal.run/$1/requests/$2/status?logs=1" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq '{status: .status, queue_position: .queue_position, logs: .logs}'
Get result of completed request
$2 for model $1:
curl -s "https://queue.fal.run/$1/requests/$2" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" | jq '.'
Upload file
$1 to fal CDN:
curl -s -X POST "https://fal.run/fal-ai/storage/upload" \ -H "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" \ -F "file=@$1"
Returns URL to use in model requests.
