# Chrono Edit API

> 선택적 시간적 추론과 터보 모드를 지원하고 480p 또는 720p로 출력하는 지시 기반 이미지 편집기

텍스트 프롬프트에서 논리적으로 일관된 변경을 목표로 이미지를 편집합니다. `enable_temporal_reasoning`은 추론 단계를 추가하며(`num_temporal_reasoning_steps`를 통해 2~12), `enable_prompt_expansion`과 `turbo_mode`는 기본적으로 활성화됩니다. 해상도는 480p 또는 720p이고 출력 형식은 jpeg, png 또는 webp입니다.

- Model id: `chrono-edit`
- Made by: NVIDIA
- Category: Image Editing
- Output: image
- Price: from $0.01 / image (cheapest run $0.01 (10 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/chrono-edit`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/chrono-edit`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/ko/developers/models/chrono-edit

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.01 / image** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Billed per generated image.

Price rules (the first rule that matches the input wins; a parameter you leave out counts as its default):

- When `resolution` = 720p: $0.02 (20 API credits) / image

The full example input below costs $0.01 = 10 API credits (1 image × 10 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/chrono-edit` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | 편집에 제공되는 이미지입니다. |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | 이미지 편집 내용을 설명하는 프롬프트입니다. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `8` | 2 – 50 | 실행할 추론 단계 수입니다. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 10 | 추론 중 적용되는 가이던스 스케일입니다. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | 프롬프트 확장 활성화 여부를 제어합니다. |
| `enable_temporal_reasoning` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | 시간적 추론 활성화 여부를 제어합니다. |
| `num_temporal_reasoning_steps` |  | integer | no | `8` | 2 – 12 | 시간적 추론에 사용되는 단계 수입니다. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `480p` | `480p`, `720p` | 결과 이미지의 해상도입니다. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | 안전 검사를 제어하는 스위치입니다. 끄기 설정은 승인된 계정에서만 적용됩니다. 해당 승인이 없는 모든 요청은 안전 검사를 거칩니다. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | 추론 중 사용되는 시드입니다. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `jpeg` | `jpeg`, `png`, `webp` | 결과 이미지의 파일 형식입니다. |
| `turbo_mode` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | 추론 속도를 높이는 Turbo 모드 전환입니다. |

File parameters (`image`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/chrono-edit?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/chrono-edit?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/chrono-edit", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "chrono-edit",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
