_Chat with Qwen, generate images & videos, understand images, call agents,_
_manage memory, search the web — all from your terminal._

_Built for AI Agents. Every command works as a structured tool call._

## Features

Equip your AI Agent out-of-the-box with these capabilities, composable across complex tasks:

- **Text chat** — Qwen3.7-max: major gains in agentic coding, frontend coding, and vibe coding
- **Multimodal (Omni)** — Full omni-modal support across text + image + audio + video
- **Image generation & editing** — Qwen-Image 2.0: pro text rendering, photorealism, strong semantic adherence, multi-image composition
- **Video generation & editing** — happyhorse-1.1 series: text-/image-/reference-to-video and natural-language video editing (up to 9-image reference)
- **Speech synthesis & recognition** — CosyVoice streaming TTS, voice cloning from 5–20s samples; FunAudio-ASR covers 30 languages including 7 Chinese dialects and 20+ Mandarin accents
- **Image & video understanding** — Qwen-VL: long-form video analysis, chart/document parsing, visual reasoning, multilingual OCR

> **Note:** The features below are currently available only to China site (aliyun.com) account holders and are not yet supported for international / global site accounts.

- **Knowledge base & memory** — Multimodal RAG retrieval and cross-session memory for personalized, coherent dialogue
- **App calls** — Invoke agents and workflows already published on Aliyun Model Studio
- **MCP integration** — Orchestrate Bailian MCP servers: list services, inspect tools, and invoke any tool directly from the terminal
- **Web search** — Real-time internet retrieval for up-to-date, accurate answers
- **Model recommendation** — Describe your scenario and get best-fit model suggestions; supports scoped search, model comparison, and alternative discovery
- **Console capabilities** — Browse Bailian apps (`app list`), check free-tier quota (`usage free`), view model usage statistics (`usage stats`), manage workspaces (`workspace list`), and manage rate limits (`quota list/request/check/history`)
- **Local file auto-upload** — Every URL parameter accepts a local path; uploaded to free temp storage with 48-hour validity

## Showcase: One-Sentence Cinematic Video

  
    
  

👆 Click the cover to play the full 2-minute demo

A complete **2-minute, 16:9 cinematic short film** — produced end-to-end from a single natural-language sentence, with **zero manual editing**. This showcase demonstrates how an AI Agent can compose a multi-step creative pipeline by orchestrating three primitives:

- **[Qwen Code](https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code)** — the agentic coding model that interprets the user's intent and drives the workflow
- **[Aliyun Model Studio CLI](https://bailian.console.aliyun.com/cli?source_channel=cli_github&)** — invokes **HappyHorse 1.1**, Aliyun Model Studio's text-/image-/reference-to-video generation model
- **[spark-video Skill](https://github.com/JohnKeating1997/spark-video)** — handles scene decomposition, storyboarding, shot continuity, and final stitching

### The single prompt

> _"Generate a roughly 2-minute video in Japanese cinematic style — a sweet, innocent first-love story about a high-school girl. The plot should be heart-fluttering enough to make viewers want to fall in love. Aspect ratio: 16:9."_
>
> _(Original: "帮我生成一段日系影视风格，高中女生的青涩初恋故事，剧情高甜，让人看了想谈恋爱，2分钟左右的视频，尺寸是16:9")_

### How it works

1. **Qwen Code** parses the request, plans the narrative beats, and decides which tools to call.
2. The **spark-video Skill** breaks the story into shots, writes per-shot prompts, and enforces visual continuity (characters, lighting, palette, lens language).
3. **`bl video generate`** dispatches each shot to **HappyHorse 1.1** in parallel.
4. The skill stitches all clips back together into a single 16:9 / ~2-min deliverable.

No timeline scrubbing. No frame-by-frame editing. Just one sentence → one video.

## Installation

```bash
npm install -g bailian-cli
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --all -g
```

> Requires Node.js >= 22.12.

# Browser login (required for console capability commands)
bl auth login --console

# Browse apps / free-tier quota / usage statistics / workspaces
bl app list
bl usage free --model qwen3-max
bl usage free --expiring 30                           # Quotas expiring within 30 days
bl usage free --sort remaining                        # Sort by remaining % ascending
bl usage stats --workspace-id                     # Usage overview for a workspace
bl usage stats --model qwen-turbo --workspace-id  # Per-model usage
bl workspace list                                     # List all workspaces

# Rate limit management
bl quota list                                         # View RPM/TPM limits for all models
bl quota list --model qwen3.6-plus                    # View limits for a specific model
bl quota check                                        # Current usage vs rate limits
bl quota check --model qwen3.6-plus --period 5        # Check usage over last 5 minutes

## Authentication

### DashScope API Key

Required for most commands. Get your key from the [DashScope Console](https://bailian.console.aliyun.com/cn-beijing/?source_channel=key_github&tab=app#/api-key).

```bash
# Option 1: Environment variable
export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY=sk-xxxxx

# Option 2: Login command (persisted to ~/.bailian/config.json)
bl auth login --api-key sk-xxxxx

# Option 3: Per-command flag
bl text chat --api-key sk-xxxxx --message "Hello"
```

### Console Login (OAuth)

Required for console capability commands (`app list`, `usage free`, `usage stats`, `workspace list`, `quota list/request/check/history`). Opens the Bailian console in your browser to sign in.

```bash
bl auth login --console
```

### Alibaba Cloud AK/SK (Knowledge Base only)

Required for `knowledge retrieve`. Get your AccessKey from [RAM Console](https://ram.console.aliyun.com/manage/ak).

> Recommended: create a RAM sub-account with minimum privileges instead of using the root account's AK/SK.

```bash
export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID=LTAI5t...
export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET=...
export BAILIAN_WORKSPACE_ID=ws-...
```
