This file holds every use case of this repo. Each one starts with a "## " heading and ends with its URL. - Generate images with the official Qwen-Image-2.1 base model: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/wildminder-awesome-qwen-image/generate-images-with-official-base-model/ - Run Qwen-Image 2.1 in ComfyUI on an 8 to 12 GB GPU: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/wildminder-awesome-qwen-image/run-qwen-image-in-comfyui-on-8gb-gpu/ - Generate images in 8 steps with the official Turbo model: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/wildminder-awesome-qwen-image/generate-images-in-eight-steps-with-turbo/ - Rewrite short requests into detailed image prompts: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/wildminder-awesome-qwen-image/rewrite-short-requests-into-detailed-prompts/ - Run Qwen-Image 2.1 locally with llama.cpp and GGUF quants: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/wildminder-awesome-qwen-image/run-qwen-image-locally-with-gguf/ ## How to generate images with the official Qwen-Image-2.1 base model with Awesome Qwen Image Repo: [wildminder/awesome-qwen-image](https://github.com/wildminder/awesome-qwen-image) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 1 hour | Basis: From the README Run the reference BF16 Diffusers checkpoint for text-to-image and editing. **Who it is for:** A developer or researcher who wants the reference model and a standard Diffusers setup. **The problem:** Community conversions differ in quality and format, and it is hard to know which file is the baseline. **The outcome:** A working generation from the official weights, with a clear baseline to compare other variants against. ### Steps 1. Open the official Qwen-Image-2.1 model card on Hugging Face and read the license and aspect-ratio table. 2. Download the whole Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 repo, not a single file, because the DiT and text encoder ship as numbered safetensors shards with an index. 3. Load the model with the QwenImage21Pipeline class in Diffusers. 4. Run a sample prompt using the default of 40 steps without classifier-free guidance, then try CFG if prompt adherence is weak. 5. Check that the output has the expected size for the aspect ratio you chose. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the wildminder/awesome-qwen-image list, load the official Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 model with QwenImage21Pipeline in Diffusers and generate an image from the prompt . Report the output file path and the step count used. Verify that the image matches the prompt and that the default 40 steps without CFG ran. ``` ### Caveat The base text encoder is Qwen3-VL-8B at about 17.5 GB, so the first download is large.

Pick the Comfy-Org int8 ConvRot files if you want the official ComfyUI repackage, or the chfm INT4ConvRot-ComfyUI pack for 8 to 12 GB VRAM. 2. Put the Image Model file in models/diffusion_models/, the text encoder in models/text_encoders/, and the VAE in models/vae/. 3. Use a recent ComfyUI build, which loads ConvRot files with the standard diffusion-model and text-encoder loaders. 4. Load the official ComfyUI native workflow example from the docs.comfy.org Qwen-Image 2.1 tutorial, or build a workflow with those loaders. 5. Generate a test image and compare quality against the BF16 base if you have the VRAM. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using wildminder/awesome-qwen-image, set up ComfyUI with the int8 ConvRot Image Model and Text Encoder from Comfy-Org/Qwen-Image-2.1 in the folders listed in the README, then generate one image from the prompt . Report the file paths used and the output image path. Verify that the Image Model is in models/diffusion_models/ and the text encoder is in models/text_encoders/. ``` ### Caveat ConvRot loading depends on a recent ComfyUI build, and the README does not name a specific version.

Open the Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo repo and confirm it is the official 8-step checkpoint with CFG 1.0. 2. Check that your diffusers build supports pipeline-configured sampling, since the README says the checkpoint needs it. 3. Load the Turbo weights so the pipeline configures the sampler itself. 4. Generate with 8 steps and CFG 1.0. 5. If you use ComfyUI instead, use the Image Model (Turbo) rows in the Comfy-Org table. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using wildminder/awesome-qwen-image, load Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo in a diffusers build that supports pipeline-configured sampling and generate one image in 8 steps with CFG 1.0 from the prompt . Report the output path and the step and CFG values. Verify that the sampler was configured by the pipeline and not set by hand. ``` ### Caveat The README says the Turbo checkpoint needs a diffusers build with pipeline-configured sampling, and it does not name the minimum version.

Download the full Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I repo, since it splits into shards with an index and has no single-file build. 2. Load it with AutoModelForCausalLM and AutoTokenizer and use its system_prompt.txt. 3. Send the short request and read the output, which is JSON after a reasoning block. 4. Split the output on the think-tag before parsing the JSON. 5. Use the returned wh_ratio to pick the image size, then pass the rewritten prompt to your image model. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using wildminder/awesome-qwen-image, load the Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1-PE-T2I rewriter with AutoModelForCausalLM and AutoTokenizer, rewrite the request using its system_prompt.txt, and return the English prompt and wh_ratio as JSON. Verify that you split the output on the think-tag before parsing JSON. ``` ### Caveat The official rewriter is a 9B model at about 18.8 GB, so the lighter Pocket 2B or 0.8B builds are the option for smaller machines.

Open the Unsloth GGUF repo at huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen-Image-2.1-GGUF. 2. Choose a quant between Q2_K and Q8_0 based on your free memory. 3. Download the chosen GGUF file. 4. Run it with llama.cpp on your machine. 5. Compare output quality at two quant levels to find the smallest one that still meets your needs. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using wildminder/awesome-qwen-image, download one GGUF quant between Q2_K and Q8_0 from unsloth/Qwen-Image-2.1-GGUF that fits and run it with llama.cpp on the prompt . Report the chosen quant and output path. Verify the file loaded without errors and that the output matches the prompt. ``` ### Caveat The README lists the GGUF spread but does not give per-quant memory figures, so you need to check fit yourself.
