Root Cause

Root cause: queue.fal.ai is not a valid DNS record. fal.ai (216.150.1.1) and api.fal.ai (76.76.21.93) resolve correctly. FAL has migrated/removed the queue subdomain.

Fix Action

Fix / Workaround

Impact: All FAL image gen broken. Workaround: use MinMax image-01 or OpenRouter Gemini models.

Code Example

queue.fal.ai -> NXDOMAIN
api.fal.ai -> 76.76.21.93 (fully operational)

Bug: FAL provider cannot resolve queue.fal.ai — returns NXDOMAIN. All FAL image generation is non-functional.

Root cause: queue.fal.ai is not a valid DNS record. fal.ai (216.150.1.1) and api.fal.ai (76.76.21.93) resolve correctly. FAL has migrated/removed the queue subdomain.

Evidence:

queue.fal.ai -> NXDOMAIN
api.fal.ai -> 76.76.21.93 (fully operational)

The FAL API at api.fal.ai/v1/models returns 50+ active image generation endpoints including: flux/dev, flux-2-pro, flux-2-max, nano-banana-pro, openai/gpt-image-2, bytedance/seedream/v4.5.

Plugin version: @openclaw/fal-provider 2026.4.20 — hardcodes queue.fal.ai as queue endpoint, only registers flux/dev model.

Suggested fix: Update FAL SDK to use correct queue endpoint (api.fal.ai or current FAL serverless queue URL). Register additional FAL models (flux-2-pro, nano-banana-pro, gpt-image-2, etc.).

Impact: All FAL image gen broken. Workaround: use MinMax image-01 or OpenRouter Gemini models.

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the FAL provider to use the correct queue endpoint, such as api.fal.ai, and register additional FAL models to resolve the image generation issue.

Guidance

  • Verify the current FAL SDK version and check for any available updates that may include the correct queue endpoint.
  • Register additional FAL models, such as flux-2-pro, nano-banana-pro, and gpt-image-2, to ensure compatibility with the updated queue endpoint.
  • Test the updated FAL provider with the new queue endpoint and registered models to ensure image generation is functional.
  • Consider using the suggested workaround, MinMax image-01 or OpenRouter Gemini models, until the FAL provider is updated.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not include specific code details.

Notes

The provided solution assumes that updating the FAL provider to use the correct queue endpoint and registering additional models will resolve the issue. However, the exact implementation details may vary depending on the specific FAL SDK version and configuration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Use MinMax image-01 or OpenRouter Gemini models until the FAL provider is updated to use the correct queue endpoint and registers additional FAL models, as this will allow for temporary image generation functionality.
