Create locally with NVIDIA CUDA or Apple Silicon Metal. Use the CLI, desktop app, web studio, or terminal interface, and connect from iPhone or Android when you are away from the GPU.
mold run "a cat". That's it. Predictable stdin, stdout, files, exit behavior, and machine-readable output make the same workflows natural for terminals, shell pipelines, CI, and agents.
Broad Model Support
FLUX.1, SDXL, SD 1.5, SD 3.5, Z-Image, Flux.2 Klein, Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, Wuerstchen v2, LTX Video (0.9.x, 2, 2.3, and 2.5), Wan 2.1/2.2, and MiniMax H3. Create images, video, and generated audio with model variants suited to a wide range of GPUs.
Built-in Discord bot for generation, mesh, identity, transparency, prompt tools, attachment upscaling, models, and status. Server profiles govern generation; scripted chains and durable mesh workflows stay in the CLI/API.
img2img, Edit & ControlNet
Transform existing images, run multimodal Qwen edit workflows, inpaint regions with masks, and guide generation with ControlNet conditioning. LoRA adapters for FLUX, Flux.2, LTX-2, SD1.5, SD3, SDXL, Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, Wan, and Z-Image.
Deploy Anywhere
Docker images for RunPod and any NVIDIA host. Nix flake, systemd service, NixOS module included.
Prompt Expansion
Local LLM expands short prompts into detailed descriptions. Auto-downloads Qwen3-1.7B, dropped before diffusion runs.
OpenClaw Skill
Use mold from OpenClaw as a workspace skill while your GPU server runs elsewhere. Point `MOLD_HOST` at the server and generate from agent flows.
Mold began as a single-binary command-line tool and the CLI remains its stable foundation. Every core workflow can be run by a person, composed in a shell pipeline, automated in CI, or called by an agent. mold serve, REST/SSE, MCP, and the desktop and web surfaces all extend that same engine and contract; the iPhone and Android apps use the same contract as remote-only clients.
Create locally on Apple Silicon or NVIDIA, or connect every Mold machine you use. On a Mac there are two desktop apps, side by side: Mold Studio, built natively for macOS 26, and Mold Desktop, the same app that runs on Windows and Linux. Both carry mold's Metal engine, a merged multi-machine Library, queues, models and machines in one window.
