Call the Soul API

POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/image/call with Authorization: Bearer $VARG_API_KEY. It answers 202 with a job right away.

1. Send the request

cURL
curl -X POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/image/call \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $VARG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "model": "soul",
  "prompt": "young woman, casual outfit, warm smile, phone selfie"
}'
JavaScript
JavaScript
const headers = {
  Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.VARG_API_KEY}`,
  'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}

const res = await fetch('https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/image/call', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "model": "soul",
    "prompt": "young woman, casual outfit, warm smile, phone selfie"
  }),
})
const job = await res.json() // { id: "job_…", status: "queued" }
Python
Python
import os
import requests

headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['VARG_API_KEY']}"}

job = requests.post(
    "https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/image/call",
    headers=headers,
    json={
      "model": "soul",
      "prompt": "young woman, casual outfit, warm smile, phone selfie"
    },
).json()  # {"id": "job_…", "status": "queued"}

2. Get the result

Poll the job until its status is completed, failed or cancelled; Soul typically takes about 60 s. The result is at output.outputs[0].url.

GET /v2/jobs/{id}
curl https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/$JOB_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $VARG_API_KEY"

# Poll until "status" is completed, failed or cancelled.
# The result is in output.outputs[0].url
JavaScript
JavaScript
let current = job
while (!['completed', 'failed', 'cancelled'].includes(current.status)) {
  await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 3000))
  current = await (await fetch(`https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/${current.id}`, { headers })).json()
}
console.log(current.output?.outputs?.[0]?.url)
Python
Python
import time

while job["status"] not in ("completed", "failed", "cancelled"):
    time.sleep(3)
    job = requests.get(f"https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/{job['id']}", headers=headers).json()

print(job["output"]["outputs"][0]["url"])
Or take a webhook instead of polling

Add options.webhook_url and varg POSTs the finished job to it.

{
  "model": "soul",
  "prompt": "young woman, casual outfit, warm smile, phone selfie",
  "options": {
    "webhook_url": "https://your-app.com/varg-webhook"
  }
}

Soul API: questions

How much does Soul cost on varg?
Soul costs from $0.05 per run on varg ($0.05/image on the cheapest route). varg charges the provider's price with no markup, from one credit balance. For the exact price of a request before you run it, send the same body to POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/estimate.
How do I call the Soul API?
Send POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/image/call with the header "Authorization: Bearer $VARG_API_KEY" and a JSON body that includes "model": "soul". The call answers 202 with a job right away. Poll GET https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/{id} until "status" is "completed", then read output.outputs[0].url, or pass options.webhook_url to be called back.
Can I use Soul from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Add the varg MCP server (https://mcp.varg.ai/mcp) to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any other MCP client and sign in with varg, with no API key to paste. The agent runs Soul with call_tool, passing tool "image" and "model": "soul".
How long does a Soul request take?
Typically about 60 s on the fastest route, by the catalog's estimate. The API answers at once with a job id, so nothing waits on an open connection while it runs.
