🎬 VideoAgent Video Studio

Use when: User asks to generate a video, create a video from text, animate an image, make a short clip, or produce AI video.

Generate short AI videos with 7 backends. This skill picks the right mode (text-to-video or image-to-video), enhances the prompt for best results, and returns the video URL.

Quick Reference

User Intent	Mode	Typical Duration
"Make a video of..." (no image)	`text-to-video`	4–10 s
"Animate this image" / "Make this move"	`image-to-video`	4–6 s
"Turn this into a video with..."	`image-to-video`	4–6 s
Cinematic, story, ad	Prefer `text-to-video` with detailed prompt	5–10 s

Generation Modes

Mode	Description	Models
text-to-video	Text prompt only → video	minimax, kling, veo, hunyuan, grok, seedance
image-to-video	Single image + prompt → animated clip	minimax, kling, veo, pixverse, grok, seedance
reference-based	Reference images/video → consistent output	minimax, kling, veo, hunyuan, grok, seedance

Models (use

--model <id>

)

Model ID	T2V	I2V	Reference	Notes
`minimax`	✅	✅	✅	Subject reference image, character consistency
`kling`	✅	✅	✅	Multi-element / character / keyframe (O3)
`veo`	✅	✅	✅	Google Veo 3.1, multiple reference images
`hunyuan`	✅	—	✅	Video-to-video style transfer
`pixverse`	—	✅	—	Stylized image-to-video
`grok`	✅	✅	✅	Video editing via reference video
`seedance`	✅	✅	✅	Seedance 1.5 Pro, synchronized audio, 4–12 s

How to Generate a Video

Step 1 — Choose mode and enhance the prompt

Text-to-video: Expand with subject, action, camera movement, lighting, and style. Be specific about motion (e.g. "camera slowly zooms in", "character walks left to right").
Image-to-video: Describe the motion to apply to the image (e.g. "gentle breeze in the hair", "camera pans across the scene"). See references/prompt_guide.md for patterns.

Step 2 — Run the script

Text-to-video:

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode text-to-video \
  --prompt "<enhanced prompt>" \
  --duration <seconds> \
  --aspect-ratio <ratio>

Image-to-video:

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode image-to-video \
  --prompt "<motion description>" \
  --image-url "<public image URL>" \
  --duration <seconds> \
  --aspect-ratio <ratio>

Parameters:

Parameter	Default	Description
`--mode`	`text-to-video`	`text-to-video` or `image-to-video`
`--prompt`	(required)	Scene or motion description
`--image-url`	—	Required for `image-to-video` ; public image URL
`--duration`	`5`	Length in seconds (typically 4–10)
`--aspect-ratio`	`16:9`	`16:9` , `9:16` , `1:1` , `4:3` , `3:4`
`--model`	`auto`	Model ID (e.g. `kling` , `veo` , `grok` , `seedance` ); `auto` = proxy picks

Other commands:

Command	Description
`node tools/generate.js --list-models`	List available models from the proxy
`node tools/generate.js --status --job-id <id>`	Check async job status

Step 3 — Return the result

The script returns JSON:

{
  "success": true,
  "mode": "text-to-video",
  "videoUrl": "https://...",
  "duration": 5,
  "aspectRatio": "16:9"
}

Send

videoUrl

to the user.

Example Conversations

User: "Generate a short video of a cat walking in the rain, cinematic."

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode text-to-video \
  --prompt "A cat walking through rain, wet streets, neon reflections, cinematic lighting, slow motion, 4K" \
  --duration 5 \
  --aspect-ratio 16:9

User: "Animate this photo" (user uploads a landscape)

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode image-to-video \
  --prompt "Gentle clouds moving across the sky, subtle grass movement, cinematic atmosphere" \
  --image-url "https://..." \
  --duration 5 \
  --aspect-ratio 16:9

User: "Make a 10-second vertical video of a coffee pour, slow motion."

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode text-to-video \
  --prompt "Close-up of coffee pouring into a white cup, slow motion, steam rising, soft lighting, product shot" \
  --duration 10 \
  --aspect-ratio 9:16

User: "Use Google Veo for a cinematic shot."

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode text-to-video \
  --model veo \
  --prompt "A dragon flying through cloudy skies, cinematic lighting, 8s" \
  --duration 8 \
  --aspect-ratio 16:9

User: "Animate this portrait."

node {baseDir}/tools/generate.js \
  --mode image-to-video \
  --model grok \
  --prompt "Gentle smile, subtle head turn" \
  --image-url "https://..." \
  --duration 5

Variable	Required	Description
`VIDEO_STUDIO_PROXY_URL`	No	Proxy base URL
`VIDEO_STUDIO_TOKEN`	No	Auth token if the proxy requires it
