Frequently asked questions

What is Image Generation Starter?

Image Generation Starter is a Next.js AI agents starter for OpenAI Agents SDK workflows, prompt analysis, research agents, and agentic AI prototypes. It is best when you need inspectable workflow steps rather than a simple chat-only interface.

Who should use Image Generation Starter?

Use Image Generation Starter if you are a Next.js developer, AI product builder, applied AI engineer, or founder looking for an open-source AI app starter instead of rebuilding the same AI interface and server route from scratch.

Is Image Generation Starter production-ready?

This starter is production-grade in its AI safety baseline: prompts are hardened against prompt-injection attempts, provider calls stay server-side, unsafe inputs are constrained, and client-facing errors are kept safe. You should still expand it for your use case by adding or adapting authentication, tenant isolation, persistent storage, observability, quotas, billing, and business-specific policy checks before a real launch.
