            - Up to `32000` characters (counted by Unicode code points, works

            functions


            **Note:**

            - Number of input images per request: `1~16`

            - Size of a single image: not exceeding `50MB`

            - Supported file formats: `.jpeg`, `.jpg`, `.png`, `.webp`

            - Image URLs must be directly accessible by the server, or the image
            URL should directly download when accessed (typically these URLs end
            with image file extensions, such as `.png`, `.jpg`)

            - In image-to-image / image editing scenarios, the reference images
            themselves also incur additional image input token consumption
          items:
            type: string
            format: uri
          example:
            - https://example.com/image1.png

        size:
          type: string
          description: >-
            Size of the generated image. Supports both **ratio format** and
            **explicit pixel format**, defaults to `auto`


            **① Ratio format (recommended, 15 options)**


            - `1:1`: Square

            - `1:2` / `2:1`: Extreme portrait / landscape

            - `1:3` / `3:1`: Ultra portrait / landscape (3:1 limit)

            - `2:3` / `3:2`: Standard portrait / landscape

            - `3:4` / `4:3`: Classic portrait / landscape

            - `4:5` / `5:4`: Common social media

            - `9:16` / `16:9`: Mobile / desktop widescreen

            - `9:21` / `21:9`: Ultra-wide


            **② Explicit pixel format**: `WxH` (or `W×H`), e.g. `1024x1024`,
            `1536x1024`, `3840×2160`


            - Both width and height must be multiples of `16`

            - Each edge range: `[16, 3840]`

            - Pixel budget: `655,360 ≤ width × height ≤ 8,294,400` (about 0.65
            MP ~ 8.29 MP)

            - Aspect ratio: `≤ 3:1`


            **③ `auto`**: The model decides the size automatically (`resolution`
            does not apply in this mode)


            **Out-of-range handling:**

            - If a ratio + `resolution` combination exceeds the pixel budget,
            dimensions are automatically scaled down proportionally (e.g. 4K 2:1
            → 3840×1920)
          default: auto
          example: auto
        resolution:
          type: string
          description: >-
            Resolution tier shortcut, only effective when `size` is a ratio;
            ignored in explicit pixel mode


            **Pixel budget rules** (dimensions are derived from the target pixel
            count and the `size` ratio, aligned to multiples of 16):


            - `1K`: ~1 MP (1024² = 1,048,576 pixels)

            - `2K`: ~4 MP (2048² = 4,194,304 pixels)

            - `4K`: ~8.29 MP (3840×2160 = 8,294,400 pixels, the maximum)


            **Landscape / square output dimensions** (portrait dimensions are
            the landscape width/height swapped, e.g. `2:3` = `3:2` reversed):


            | Ratio | 1K | 2K | 4K |

            |---|---|---|---|

            | `1:1` | 1024×1024 | 2048×2048 | 2880×2880 |

            | `5:4` | 1152×912 | 2288×1824 | 3216×2576 |

            | `16:9` | 1360×768 | 2736×1536 | 3840×2160 (UHD) |

            | `21:9` | 1568×672 | 3136×1344 | 3840×1632 \* |


            \* Marks combinations that are auto-downscaled to fit the pixel
            budget. Values are case-insensitive.

            **Callback Timing:**

            - Triggered when task is completed, failed, or cancelled

            - Sent after billing confirmation is completed


            **Security Restrictions:**

            - Only HTTPS protocol is supported

            - Callback to internal IP addresses is prohibited (127.0.0.1,
            10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x, 192.168.x.x, etc.)

            - URL length must not exceed `2048` characters


            **Callback Mechanism:**

            - Timeout: `10` seconds

            - Maximum `3` retries on failure (retries after `1` second/`2`
            seconds/`4` seconds)

            - Callback response body format is consistent with the task query
            API response format

            - Callback address returning 2xx status code is considered
            successful, other status codes will trigger retry
