Use Cases

Image pipelines built in conversation

How development teams and content creators use AI agents to construct complex imgix transformation URLs without memorizing API parameters.

Responsive Images Generated Instantly

A developer needs srcset URLs for a product image at 400, 800, and 1200 pixel widths in WebP format. They describe the requirement to the AI Agent, which constructs three imgix URLs with the correct width, format, and quality parameters. The developer copies the URLs directly into their HTML. What took 10 minutes of documentation reading now takes 15 seconds.

Brand Color Extraction from Product Photos

A designer uploads a new product line photo and needs the key colors for the marketing page. The AI Agent calls imgix's palette API and returns 8 dominant colors in hex values with CSS class names. The designer drops them directly into the stylesheet. No color picker needed, no subjective guessing.

Watermarked Preview Images for Clients

A photographer needs to share preview galleries with clients but wants to protect unpurchased images. They describe the watermark placement to the AI Agent, which applies their logo overlay on every image using imgix's mark parameters with 50% opacity, centered positioning, and appropriate padding. An entire gallery watermarked through a single conversation.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent construct imgix transformation URLs?

The agent combines your imgix source domain, image path, and transformation parameters into a properly formatted URL. It understands all 44 rendering parameters including resize, crop, format, quality, watermark, text overlay, and color adjustments. You describe the desired output and the agent builds the correct URL.

Can the agent handle face-aware cropping automatically?

Yes. The agent uses imgix's crop=faces parameter combined with fit=crop to automatically detect faces and center the crop around them. You can also specify faceindex to target a specific face and facepad to control padding around the detected face region.

What imgix sources can the agent access?

The agent can work with any configured imgix source, including S3 buckets, Google Cloud Storage, Azure containers, and web folders. Use the List Sources API to see all available sources. You specify the source domain when requesting transformations.

Does Tars process or store the transformed images?

No. Tars constructs imgix URLs that point to imgix's CDN. The actual image processing and delivery happens entirely on imgix infrastructure. Tars only generates the URL parameters. Your images are never downloaded to or stored on Tars servers.

Can the agent convert images to next-generation formats like WebP and AVIF?

Yes. The agent uses imgix's fm parameter to convert to WebP, AVIF, JPEG 2000, progressive JPEG, PNG, and more. It can also enable auto format selection using auto=format, which lets imgix serve the best format based on the requesting browser's capabilities.

How does the palette extraction feature work through the agent?

The agent calls imgix's palette API with your image, specifying the number of colors (0 to 16) and output format (JSON or CSS). The response includes hex color values, RGB components, and luminance data. For CSS output, you can specify a custom class name prefix.

How is this different from using the imgix dashboard or sandbox?

The dashboard and sandbox require manual URL construction and parameter tweaking. Tars lets you describe transformations in plain language. Ask for a 16:9 crop with face detection in WebP format and the agent builds the complete URL. Teams without imgix expertise can access the full rendering API through conversation.

Can the agent set expiration dates on image URLs?

Yes. The agent uses imgix's expires parameter to set a UNIX timestamp after which the URL returns a 404. This is useful for time-limited promotions, temporary previews, or content that should not be accessible permanently. The expiration is enforced at the CDN level.
