Filtering AI image generator output

Generated images are often stylised, so the art flag matters: decide whether illustrated nudity is acceptable for your audience.

from sfwapi import SfwApi
api = SfwApi(api_key=os.environ["SFWAPI_KEY"])

png_bytes = image.tobytes_png()  # your pipeline's PNG encoder
r = api.analyze_bytes(png_bytes, policy={"block_level": 2, "block_sex_objects": True, "art": "block_from_3"})
if r["policy"]["blocked"]:
    regenerate_or_blur()

Batch tip: generated images compress well as WebP; a 1024×1024 WebP is a few hundred kilobytes, so bandwidth and surcharge are never a concern.
