DESCRIPTION

Turns a text prompt into a production-ready image asset in one call: generate, sharpen, cut out the background. Composite: one call runs image-generate, then image-upscale, then remove-bg in sequence, merging into { image_url, stages }, with no separate paid calls or URL hand-offs between endpoints. Covers product image generation, ecommerce catalog creative, and one-call image workflow needs where a buyer wants a finished transparent-PNG asset, not a raw generation. Each downstream stage is optional and degrades gracefully: if upscale or background removal fails (or is disabled via input flags), the prior stage's image carries forward instead of failing the whole call.
