Comic API Documentation
Integrate professional comic generation capabilities into your applications.
How the Comic API works
Three quick onboarding illustrations: prepare the input, send the request, review the result.



REST + MCP
API Komik
Use the Comic API to turn prompts, customer uploads, character references, and story briefs into structured comic pages with generated panel assets.
Pengesahan
Send your API key with HTTP Bearer Auth on every request.
1Authorization: Bearer $LLAMAGEN_API_KEYBase URL
All production REST endpoints use the same API host. MCP clients can connect from the docs workflow.
1https://api.llamagen.aiEndpoints
Create generation
POST /v1/comics/generationsSubmit prompt, role references, scene references, layout options, language, upscale, and attachments.
Video generation
POST /v1/comics/generationsSubmit a video generation request through the same endpoint by setting agentType to videoModel and passing videoOptions.
Get status
GET /v1/comics/generations/{generationId}Poll status, generated assets, panel metadata, and failure details for a generation.
Continue write

MCP Usage
Connect via Streamable HTTP
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKENConfigure your MCP client to use Streamable HTTP transport with the endpoint above. Provide your API token via the Authorization header.
Available Tools
- create_comic_generation— Create a generation job
- get_comic_generation_status— Get status/result by id
- get_api_usage— View current usage and quota
Client Configuration Example
Many MCP clients allow setting a remote HTTP endpoint with custom headers. Below is a generic example:
{
"mcpServers": {
"llamagen": {
"url": "https://llamagen.ai/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}The exact configuration format varies by client. Ensure the Authorization header is set with your token.
Cursor Setup
- Open Cursor Settings and find the Model Context Protocol (MCP) section.
- Add a new server using Streamable HTTP.
- Set URL to https://llamagen.ai/api/mcp.
- Under Headers, add Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN.
- Save and test by listing tools; you should see create_comic_generation, get_comic_generation_status, get_api_usage.
Alternatively, you can configure via Cursor's MCP configuration file using the same JSON structure as above, if your version supports it.

Install the SDK first, then create a generation job and wait for the final result in two clear steps.
Install
npm i comicStep 1: Create generation
1import { LlamaGenClient } from 'comic';2 3const llamagen = new LlamaGenClient({4 apiKey: process.env.LLAMAGEN_API_KEY!,5});6 7const created = await llamagen.comic.create({8 prompt: 'A detective fox in Tokyo',9 size: '1024x1024'10});Step 2: Wait for completion
1const result = await llamagen.comic.waitForCompletion(created.id);2 3console.log(result);Supported size values: 1024x1024 (1:1), 512x768 (2:3), 512x1024 (1:2), 576x1024 (9:16), 768x1024 (3:4), 1024x768 (4:3), 768x512 (3:2), 1024x576 (16:9), 1024x512 (2:1)
TypeScript Types
The SDK ships with first-class TypeScript types for request payloads and responses.
1import type {2 CreateComicParams,3 ComicArtworkResponse,4 ComicGenerationStatus5} from 'comic';6 7const payload: CreateComicParams = {8 prompt: 'A superhero cat saving a city',9 preset: 'render',10 size: '1024x1024'11};Valid size values: 1024x1024 (1:1), 512x768 (2:3), 512x1024 (1:2), 576x1024 (9:16), 768x1024 (3:4), 1024x768 (4:3), 768x512 (3:2), 1024x576 (16:9), 1024x512 (2:1)
Status Lifecycle
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| LOADING | Request accepted or generation is still running. |
| PROCESSED | Generation completed successfully. |
| FAILED | Generation failed. Inspect error details. |
Recommended: poll every 3-5 seconds with timeout protection and exponential retry for transient failures.
Webhooks
Manage webhook endpoints in Settings → API → Webhooks. You can subscribe to create, update, completed, and failed events for comic generations.
Supported Events
comic.generation.created— Fires after a generation request is accepted.comic.generation.updated— Fires after continue-write or single-panel regenerate is queued.comic.generation.completed— Fires when the generation reaches a processed state.comic.generation.failed— Fires when the generation ends in a failed state.
Signing Headers
X-Llama-Webhook-Id: evt_...
X-Llama-Webhook-Timestamp: 1715510400
X-Llama-Webhook-Signature: v1=...
X-Llama-Webhook-Request-Id: req_...Compute the signature from ${timestamp}.${rawBody} using your webhook secret. The dashboard only shows the secret once when creating or rotating it.
