Gemini Image Generation and Non-Streaming Mode Support 🎨

From August through September, LobeHub expanded Gemini-related capabilities across image generation, response behavior, and model coverage. The goal was straightforward: make newer Gemini workflows easier to run in production while keeping your provider options open.

More ways to generate images

This release adds support for Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) and Imagen 4 GA, alongside coverage for Nebius, AkashChat, and BFL. Azure OpenAI can now also handle image generation requests.

The new non-streaming response mode is useful when you need complete responses before displaying them—think batched processing, structured outputs, or integrations that expect synchronous results.

Use these updates to:

• Generate images through Gemini models directly in chat
• Switch between streaming and complete response modes based on your use case
• Route image requests to newer providers as they become available

Model library additions

The model library now includes GPT-5 series, Claude Opus 4.1, Grok Code Fast 1, DeepSeek V3.1, and the Gemini URL Context Tool for grounded retrieval.

Improvements and fixes

• Improved reasoning scroll mask effect
