What is Grok Imagine Extended?
The grok-imagine skill provides a robust interface for xAI's powerful image and video generation models. It allows developers and users to create visual assets from simple text prompts, perform sophisticated image-to-image editing, and even transform still images into dynamic videos. As part of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, it bridges the gap between text-based reasoning and multi-modal creation.
This skill is designed for high-performance creative workflows, supporting various aspect ratios, resolutions up to 2k, and professional-grade models like grok-imagine-image-pro. It handles the complexities of asynchronous video generation and local file management automatically, ensuring that generated media is immediately accessible and correctly formatted for downstream use.
Grok Imagine Extended Use Cases
- Creating custom illustrations or concept art for blog posts and presentations.
- Transforming existing photographs into different artistic styles (e.g., watercolor or cyberpunk).
- Generating short, high-quality video clips for social media or marketing previews.
- Animating static portraits or landscapes with controlled camera movements.
- Prototyping UI/UX designs and visual assets through iterative prompting.
How Grok Imagine Extended Works
- The user initiates a request with a text prompt and optional parameters such as resolution or aspect ratio.
- The skill processes the input and selects the appropriate xAI model based on whether an image or video is requested.
- For image editing or video animation, the skill handles the upload of source images to the xAI API.
- If generating video, the skill enters an asynchronous polling loop, checking the status of the generation until the file is ready.
- The generated media is downloaded to the local file system with a unique filename.
- The skill outputs the saved path, allowing Openclaw Skills to recognize and display the media in the user interface.
Grok Imagine Extended Setup
To get started with this skill, you need a valid xAI API key. Configure it using one of the following methods:

Alternatively, add it to your global Openclaw Skills configuration at ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:
{
"skills": {
"grok-imagine": {
"apiKey": "your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
