What the publisher says

From the ImageStep repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

ImageStep SDK

The client side of ImageStep, the image step for your automations: generate, edit, remove backgrounds, upscale, convert and read metadata as one reliable step in your code, an n8n workflow or an AI agent.

Everything that runs on your side of the API lives here:

Each directory has its own README. The documentation is at imagestep.dev/docs, and the API reference at imagestep.dev/docs/api.

Quick start

Create an API key at imagestep.dev/keys, then:

npm install imagestep
import { ImageStep } from "imagestep";

const client = new ImageStep({ apiKey: process.env.IMAGESTEP_API_KEY });

const asset = await client.assets.upload("./product.jpg");
const job = await client.ops.removeBg(asset.id, { wait: true });
const [cutout] = await client.jobs.outputs(job);
const [published] = await client.assets.publish(cutout.id);
console.log(published.publicUrl);

How this repository works

The code here is exported from ImageStep's main repository, where the API and its clients change together, in one commit. Each commit here is a snapshot of that export, and releases are tagged here: a v* tag publishes every package whose version is not on npm or PyPI yet, with provenance, from this repository's GitHub Actions.

Issues and pull requests are welcome; see CONTRIBUTING.md. To report a vulnerability, see SECURITY.md.

Development

pnpm install          # Node 22.19+ for the workspace (the CLI's floor); pnpm is pinned by packageManager
pnpm check            # lint + format
pnpm test             # every JavaScript package's unit tests
pnpm test:python      # the Python SDK's tests (needs uv)
