fal-skill

A Claude Code skill for running fal.ai generative AI models - image generation, video, audio, 3D, and more.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/fal-ai/fal-skill ~/.claude/skills/fal

Setup

  1. Get an API key from fal.ai/dashboard/keys

  2. Add to your shell config (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc):

    export FAL_KEY="your-key-here"
  3. Reload your shell:

    source ~/.zshrc

Usage

Commands

Command Description
/fal search <query> Search 600+ models
/fal schema <model_id> Get input/output schema
/fal run <model_id> --param value Run a model
/fal status <model_id> <request_id> Check job status
/fal result <model_id> <request_id> Get job result
/fal upload <file> Upload file to fal CDN

Examples

# Search for models
/fal search video
 
# See what inputs a model accepts
/fal schema fal-ai/flux-2
 
# Generate an image
/fal run fal-ai/flux-2 --prompt "a cat in space"

Or just ask Claude naturally:

"Generate an image of a sunset over mountains"

"Turn this photo into a video"

"What image models are available?"

Model Category
fal-ai/flux-2 Text to image
fal-ai/flux-2-pro Text to image (high quality)
fal-ai/kling-video/v2/image-to-video Image to video
fal-ai/minimax/video-01/image-to-video Image to video
fal-ai/whisper Speech to text

See models-reference.md for a full list.

How It Works

This skill teaches Claude how to interact with fal.ai APIs using curl. When you ask Claude to generate media, it:

  1. Searches for appropriate models (if needed)
  2. Fetches the model schema to understand required inputs
  3. Submits the job to fal's queue
  4. Polls for completion
  5. Downloads results to your machine
