FAQ
Finding and using RunAPI prompts
What are RunAPI prompts?
RunAPI prompts are curated input examples for image, video, music, and audio models. Each prompt is paired with the model slug and endpoint path so developers can copy the text into an agent or reuse it in backend calls.
Can I filter prompts by model or category?
Yes. Use the modality and category links to narrow the library, then open a model page for examples tied to one specific model slug. Each model page keeps the prompt cards, install steps, and API examples together.
Do I need an API key to browse prompts?
No. Browsing, filtering, and copying prompt text is public. You only need a RunAPI key when you ask an agent or your application to call a model and create a generation task.
How should agents use these prompts?
Install the RunAPI MCP Server in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or Windsurf, then paste the prompt instruction shown on the page. The agent can choose the matching RunAPI tool and send the prompt with the listed model.
