Using curl

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [

          }
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Using Python (OpenAI SDK)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_EACHLABS_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="eachsense/beta",
    messages=[{
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Create a fun caricature of this person. Exaggerate their most prominent features in a friendly, humorous way. Colorful cartoon style with a white background."
    }],
    # Images are included in the message content array above
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

With Reference Image

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": [
              {"type": "text", "text": "Turn this person into a caricature cartoon with exaggerated features, comic book style, vibrant colors"},
              {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"}}
            ]
          }
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Images are sent inside messages using the OpenAI multimodal content format. Maximum 4 images per request.

Streaming

Set "stream": true for real-time SSE responses, or "stream": false for complete result in a single response. Streaming is useful for showing progress in UIs; non-streaming is simpler for scripts and automation.

Prompt Engineering Tips

Specify the Style Clearly

Different caricature styles produce very different results. Always name the style:

Create a [style] caricature of this person. [Feature emphasis]. [Color/background]. [Additional context].

Feature Exaggeration

You can guide which features to exaggerate:

Exaggerate the big smile and dimples.
Emphasize the strong jawline and bushy eyebrows.
Make the eyes extra large and expressive.

Context and Props

Adding context makes caricatures more fun:

Show them holding a laptop, wearing a chef hat, riding a skateboard,
playing guitar, in a superhero costume, sitting at a desk
