Aliyun Model Studio CLI Site · 中文文档 · API Documentation · Get API Key
Chat with Qwen, generate and edit images and videos, understand images, synthesize and recognize speech, call apps, manage memory, retrieve knowledge, search the web — every AI capability, one command away.
Built for AI Agents. Every command works as a structured tool call.
Note: App orchestration, training & deployment, account operations, and plan onboarding are currently available only to China site (aliyun.com) account holders and are not yet supported for international / global site accounts.

A complete 2-minute, 16:9 cinematic short film — produced end-to-end from a single natural-language sentence, with zero manual editing. This showcase demonstrates how an AI Agent can compose a multi-step creative pipeline by orchestrating three primitives:
"Generate a roughly 2-minute video in Japanese cinematic style — a sweet, innocent first-love story about a high-school girl. The plot should be heart-fluttering enough to make viewers want to fall in love. Aspect ratio: 16:9."

One sentence builds a reusable cloud-side short-film director for storyboarding, storyboard image generation, and video creation:
"Build me a Managed Agent app that can produce short films — a director expert that generates videos and can also design the matching storyboards."

Required for console capability commands (model list, app list, MCP list, workspace, usage queries, rate-limit increases, direct console calls). It can create an ordinary API key when needed. Token Plan and other subscription plans cannot use --console; use the API Key login below.
bl auth login --console
Use --console-site international for the international console.
To use an existing ordinary API key or a Token Plan subscription key, run the same command:
bl auth login --api-key <API_KEY>
Get an ordinary key from the DashScope Console, or a Token Plan key from the subscription overview.
Token Plan seat and member management requires an Alibaba Cloud AccessKey. Get yours from the RAM Console.
Recommended: create a RAM sub-account with minimum privileges instead of using the root account's AK/SK.
bl auth login --open-api --access-key-id LTAI5t... --access-key-secret ...
# View current config
bl config show
# List all config profiles
bl config list
# Switch config profile
bl config use --name token-plan
# Switch the CLI interface to Chinese
bl config set --key language --value zh-CN
Config file location: ~/.bailian/config.json
