-### OpenAI `gpt-image-2`
-
-OpenAI image generation defaults to `openai/gpt-image-2`. If an
-`openai-codex` OAuth profile is configured, OpenClaw reuses the same OAuth
-profile used by Codex subscription chat models and sends the image request
-through the Codex Responses backend. Legacy Codex base URLs such as
-`https://chatgpt.com/backend-api` are canonicalized to
-`https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex` for image requests. It does not
-silently fall back to `OPENAI_API_KEY` for that request. To force direct OpenAI
-Images API routing, configure `models.providers.openai` explicitly with an API
-key, custom base URL, or Azure endpoint. The `openai/gpt-image-1.5`,
-`openai/gpt-image-1`, and `openai/gpt-image-1-mini` models can still be
-selected explicitly. Use `gpt-image-1.5` for transparent-background PNG/WebP
-output; the current `gpt-image-2` API rejects `background: "transparent"`.
-
-`gpt-image-2` supports both text-to-image generation and reference-image
-editing through the same `image_generate` tool. OpenClaw forwards `prompt`,
-`count`, `size`, `quality`, `outputFormat`, and reference images to OpenAI.
-OpenAI does not receive `aspectRatio` or `resolution` directly; when possible
-OpenClaw maps those into a supported `size`, otherwise the tool reports them as
-ignored overrides.
-
-OpenAI-specific options live under the `openai` object:

-```json
-{
- "quality": "low",
- "outputFormat": "jpeg",
- "openai": {
- "background": "opaque",
- "moderation": "low",
- "outputCompression": 60,
- "user": "end-user-42"
- }
-}
-```
-
-`openai.background` accepts `transparent`, `opaque`, or `auto`; transparent
-outputs require `outputFormat` `png` or `webp` and a transparency-capable OpenAI
-image model. OpenClaw routes default `gpt-image-2` transparent-background
-requests to `gpt-image-1.5`. `openai.outputCompression` applies to JPEG/WebP
-outputs.
-
-The top-level `background` hint is provider-neutral and currently maps to the
-same OpenAI `background` request field when the OpenAI provider is selected.
-Providers that do not declare background support return it in `ignoredOverrides`
-instead of receiving the unsupported parameter.
-
-When asking an agent for a transparent-background OpenAI image, the expected
-tool call is:
-
-```json
-{
- "model": "openai/gpt-image-1.5",
- "prompt": "A simple red circle sticker on a transparent background",
- "outputFormat": "png",
- "background": "transparent"
-}
-```
-
-The explicit `openai/gpt-image-1.5` model keeps the request portable across
-tool summaries and harnesses. If the agent instead uses the default
-`openai/gpt-image-2` with `openai.background: "transparent"` on the public
-OpenAI or OpenAI Codex OAuth route, OpenClaw rewrites the provider request to
-`gpt-image-1.5`. Azure and custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints keep their
-configured deployment/model names.
