It is fifteen days old, called beta, and its Claude Code install command names a plugin directory entry that was not found on 20 October 2026.\n\n**Higgsfield API.** One asynchronous API for 67 video and 17 image catalogue entries, with idempotency keys, per-second list prices public without a login, and failed or moderated jobs not charged. API inputs and outputs train Higgsfield's models unless the workspace opts out, and the docs carry no changelog. The API returns 400 at the concurrency limit, with no Retry-After.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### framefields\n\n1. Add the plugin with `/plugin marketplace add gatewai-dev/framefields` first; the official-directory install was not found on 20 October 2026.\n2. Approve only the skia-canvas install script, as the getting-started page shows, or imports fail with a missing `skia.node`.\n3. Check with `comp.lint()` and `renderFrameGrid` before a full `renderVideo` encode.\n4. Call `process.exit()` after rendering; native GPU threads keep the script alive.\n5. Preload vision models into `FRAMEFIELDS_MODELS_DIR` for offline or CI renders.\n\n### Higgsfield API\n\n1. Send `Authorization: Key \u003ckey_id\u003e:\u003ckey_secret\u003e` to https://api.higgsfield.ai. A Bearer token is rejected\n2. Send a fresh `Idempotency-Key` with every generation. After a timeout or 5xx, repeat the same request with the same key, then read `status_url`\n3. Treat a 400 whose `detail` mentions concurrent requests as a limit, not a bad request. Wait for a running job to finish before submitting more\n4. Poll `status_url` from 2 seconds up to 10 with jitter, and stop on `completed`, `failed`, `nsfw` or `canceled`\n5. Download output within seven days. Media files may be deleted after that\n6. Read the model's own docs page for its schema. The OpenAPI file lists only a few models\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, framefields or Higgsfield API?\n\nHiggsfield API scores 63.5 (B) on agent readiness against framefields's 61.3 (C), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. framefields leads on schema \u0026 documentation, payments \u0026 pricing and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Can an agent call framefields and Higgsfield API without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for framefields. Higgsfield API has a hosted endpoint at https://api.higgsfield.ai.\n\n### Are framefields and Higgsfield API open source?\n\nframefields is open source (Apache-2.0).
