# agentbrush_list_presets

List all available AgentBrush image generation presets. Returns preset IDs, display names, pipeline types, word budgets, and features. No authentication required. Call this before agentbrush_generate if unsure which preset to use. Each preset has a unique visual style. The "realistic" preset uses the gpt-image-2 single-shot path (formerly a two-model pipeline). All other presets are single-model. Token cost is determined by quality_hint (low=1 / medium=5 / high=20 tokens at 1024×1024, multiplied by a resolution factor), not by preset. The response includes enough detail for you to recommend a preset to the user without further prompting.
