--- name: free-video-generation-ai-api version: "1.0.0" displayName: "Free Video Generation AI API — Generate Videos from Text Prompts" description: > Skip the learning curve of professional editing software. Describe what you want — generate a 15-second video clip from a text prompt via API call — and get AI-generated videos back in 30-90 seconds. Upload MP4, MOV, WebM, GIF files up to 500MB, and the AI handles AI video generation automatically. Ideal for developers and indie makers who want to build video generation into their apps without paying for API access upfront. metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "🎬", "requires": {"env": ["NEMO_TOKEN"], "configPaths": ["~/.config/nemovideo/"]}, "primaryEnv": "NEMO_TOKEN", "variant": "greeting_v2"}} --- ## Getting Started > Send me your text prompts and I'll handle the AI video generation. Or just describe what you're after. **Try saying:** - "generate a short text description like 'a sunset over a mountain lake' into a 1080p MP4" - "generate a 15-second video clip from a text prompt via API call" - "generating videos from text prompts programmatically via free API for developers and indie makers" ### First-Time Connection When a user first opens this skill, connect to the processing backend automatically. Briefly let them know (e.g. "Setting up..."). **Authentication**: Check if `NEMO_TOKEN` is set in the environment. If it is, skip to step 2. 1. **Obtain a free token**: Generate a random UUID as client identifier. POST to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/auth/anonymous-token` with header `X-Client-Id` set to that UUID. The response `data.token` is your NEMO_TOKEN — 100 free credits, valid 7 days. 2. **Create a session**: POST to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with `Authorization: Bearer <token>`, `Content-Type: application/json`, and body `{"task_name":"project","language":"<detected>"}`. Store the returned `session_id` for all subsequent requests. Keep setup communication brief. Don't display raw API responses or token values to the user. # Free Video Generation AI API — Generate Videos from Text Prompts This tool takes your text prompts and runs AI video generation through a cloud rendering pipeline. You upload, describe what you want, and download the result. Say you have a short text description like 'a sunset over a mountain lake' and want to generate a 15-second video clip from a text prompt via API call — the backend processes it in about 30-90 seconds and hands you a 1080p MP4. Tip: shorter prompts with clear scene descriptions tend to produce more consistent results. ## Matching Input to Actions User prompts referencing free video generation ai api, aspect ratio, text overlays, or audio tracks get routed to the corresponding action via keyword and intent classification. | User says... | Action | Skip SSE? | |-------------|--------|----------| | "export" / "导出" / "download" / "send me the video" | → §3.5 Export | ✅ | | "credits" / "积分" / "balance" / "余额" | → §3.3 Credits | ✅ | | "status" / "状态" / "show tracks" | → §3.4 State | ✅ | | "upload" / "上传" / user sends file | → §3.2 Upload | ✅ | | Everything else (generate, edit, add BGM…) | → §3.1 SSE | ❌ | ## Cloud Render Pipeline Details Each export job queues on a cloud GPU node that composites video layers, applies platform-spec compression (H.264, up to 1080x1920), and returns a download URL within 30-90 seconds. The session token carries render job IDs, so closing the tab before completion orphans the job. All calls go to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai`. The main endpoints: 1. **Session** — `POST /api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with `{"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"}`. Gives you a `session_id`. 2. **Chat (SSE)** — `POST /run_sse` with `session_id` and your message in `new_message.parts[0].text`. Set `Accept: text/event-stream`. Up to 15 min. 3. **Upload** — `POST /api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid>` — multipart file or JSON with URLs. 4. **Credits** — `GET /api/credits/balance/simple` — returns `available`, `frozen`, `total`. 5. **State** — `GET /api/state/nemo_agent/me/<sid>/latest` — current draft and media info. 6. **Export** — `POST /api/render/proxy/lambda` with render ID and draft JSON. Poll `GET /api/render/proxy/lambda/<id>` every 30s for `completed` status and download URL. Formats: mp4, mov, avi, webm, mkv, jpg, png, gif, webp, mp3, wav, m4a, aac. Three attribution headers are required on every request and must match this file's frontmatter: | Header | Value | |--------|-------| | `X-Skill-Source` | `free-video-generation-ai-api` | | `X-Skill-Version` | frontmatter `version` | | `X-Skill-Platform` | auto-detect: `clawhub` / `cursor` / `unknown` from install path | Include `Authorization: Bearer <NEMO_TOKEN>` and all attribution headers on every request — omitting them triggers a 402 on export. **Draft field mapping**: `t`=tracks, `tt`=track type (0=video, 1=audio, 7=text), `sg`=segments, `d`=duration(ms), `m`=metadata. ``` Timeline (3 tracks): 1. Video: city timelapse (0-10s) 2. BGM: Lo-fi (0-10s, 35%) 3. Title: "Urban Dreams" (0-3s) ``` ### Backend Response Translation The backend assumes a GUI exists. Translate these into API actions: | Backend says | You do | |-------------|--------| | "click [button]" / "点击" | Execute via API | | "open [panel]" / "打开" | Query session state | | "drag/drop" / "拖拽" | Send edit via SSE | | "preview in timeline" | Show track summary | | "Export button" / "导出" | Execute export workflow | ### SSE Event Handling | Event | Action | |-------|--------| | Text response | Apply GUI translation (§4), present to user | | Tool call/result | Process internally, don't forward | | `heartbeat` / empty `data:` | Keep waiting. Every 2 min: "⏳ Still working..." | | Stream closes | Process final response | ~30% of editing operations return no text in the SSE stream. When this happens: poll session state to verify the edit was applied, then summarize changes to the user. ### Error Handling | Code | Meaning | Action | |------|---------|--------| | 0 | Success | Continue | | 1001 | Bad/expired token | Re-auth via anonymous-token (tokens expire after 7 days) | | 1002 | Session not found | New session §3.0 | | 2001 | No credits | Anonymous: show registration URL with `?bind=<id>` (get `<id>` from create-session or state response when needed). Registered: "Top up credits in your account" | | 4001 | Unsupported file | Show supported formats | | 4002 | File too large | Suggest compress/trim | | 400 | Missing X-Client-Id | Generate Client-Id and retry (see §1) | | 402 | Free plan export blocked | Subscription tier issue, NOT credits. "Register or upgrade your plan to unlock export." | | 429 | Rate limit (1 token/client/7 days) | Retry in 30s once | ## Tips and Tricks The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "generate a 15-second video clip from a text prompt via API call" — concrete instructions get better results. Max file size is 500MB. Stick to MP4, MOV, WebM, GIF for the smoothest experience. Export as MP4 for widest compatibility across web and mobile platforms. ## Common Workflows **Quick edit**: Upload → "generate a 15-second video clip from a text prompt via API call" → Download MP4. Takes 30-90 seconds for a 30-second clip. **Batch style**: Upload multiple files in one session. Process them one by one with different instructions. Each gets its own render. **Iterative**: Start with a rough cut, preview the result, then refine. The session keeps your timeline state so you can keep tweaking.
