No external-agent API verified.\n\n**Recraft API.** Native SVG vector generation, not traced raster. No changelog and no error reference.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### ArtCraft\n\n1. Use the interactive application unless an official automation interface is confirmed.\n2. Check the model service terms before sending private reference media.\n\n### Recraft API\n\n1. Use `/v1/images/generations/vector` when the task must return SVG, so the server rejects raster models\n2. Ask for `b64_json` or `multipart` if you can't fetch the URL within a day\n3. Name `recraftv4_1_flash` for drafts at $0.007. The default `recraftv4_1` costs $0.035\n4. Stay under 100 images a minute and 5 requests a second per user\n5. Point the OpenAI SDK at `https://external.api.recraft.ai/v1`, but expect some parameters to be ignored\n\n## Tutorials\n\n- [Create an editorial illustration with Recraft](https://www.anchorterminal.com/tutorials/recraft/), for Recraft API\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, ArtCraft or Recraft API?\n\nRecraft API scores 52.8 (D) on agent readiness against ArtCraft's 22.8 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Can an agent call ArtCraft and Recraft API without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for ArtCraft.
