 "title": "Add local image generation to your own app",
 "page_title": "How to add local image generation to your own app with Stable Diffusion CPP",
 "summary": "Use a Stable Diffusion CPP binding for Python, Go, Rust, C# or Flutter to generate images inside your program.",
 "who": "An app developer who wants an image feature that runs on the user's device instead of a paid API.",
 "problem": "Calling a hosted image API adds per-image cost and sends user prompts to a third party.",
 "outcome": "Your app generating images through a native library with no cloud dependency.",
 "steps": [
  "Pick the binding for your language from the Bindings list, for example stable-diffusion-cpp-python for Python or diffusion-rs for Rust",
  "Confirm your model works first with the command line: `./bin/sd-cli -m ../models/v1-5-pruned-emaonly.safetensors -p \"a lovely cat\"`",
  "Follow the binding's own README to load the same weights from your code",
  "Add LoRA or ESRGAN upscaling later if you need them; both are listed features",
  "Pin the Stable Diffusion CPP version, since the project warns that the API changes frequently"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Add local image generation to my <language> app using the stable-diffusion.cpp binding listed for it in the leejet/stable-diffusion.cpp README. Load <model weights>, expose a generate(prompt) function, and pin the library version.",

 "time": "2 hours",

 "requirements": [
  "The sd executable from the releases page, or a build from source following the build guide",
  "Model weights in .ckpt, .safetensors or .gguf format",
  "Linux, macOS or Windows; Android works through Termux",
  "Enough RAM or VRAM for the model; the performance guide covers reducing it"
