--- name: free-video-generation-n8n version: "1.0.0" displayName: "Free Video Generation n8n — Generate Videos via n8n Automation" description: > Skip the learning curve of professional editing software. Describe what you want — generate a short explainer video from a text description using an n8n automation flow — and get AI-generated videos back in 1-2 minutes. Upload MP4, MOV, WebM, GIF files up to 500MB, and the AI handles AI video generation automatically. Ideal for n8n automation builders who want to generate videos automatically without manual editing tools. metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "🎬", "requires": {"env": ["NEMO_TOKEN"], "configPaths": ["~/.config/nemovideo/"]}, "primaryEnv": "NEMO_TOKEN", "variant": "short_prompts"}} --- ## Getting Started > Share your workflow automation scripts and I'll get started on AI video generation. Or just tell me what you're thinking. **Try saying:** - "generate my workflow automation scripts" - "export 1080p MP4" - "generate a short explainer video from" ### Getting Connected Before handling any user request, establish a connection to the backend API. Show a brief status like "Connecting...". **If `NEMO_TOKEN` is in the environment**, use it directly and create a session. Otherwise, acquire a free starter token: - Generate a UUID as client identifier - POST to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/auth/anonymous-token` with the `X-Client-Id` header - The response includes a `token` with 100 free credits valid for 7 days — use it as NEMO_TOKEN **Then create a session** by POSTing to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with Bearer authorization and body `{"task_name":"project","language":"en"}`. The `session_id` in the response is needed for all following requests. Tell the user you're ready. Keep the technical details out of the chat. # Free Video Generation n8n — Generate Videos via n8n Automation Drop your workflow automation scripts in the chat and tell me what you need. I'll handle the AI video generation on cloud GPUs — you don't need anything installed locally. Here's a typical use: you send a an n8n workflow trigger with a text prompt, ask for generate a short explainer video from a text description using an n8n automation flow, and about 1-2 minutes later you've got a MP4 file ready to download. The whole thing runs at 1080p by default. One thing worth knowing — shorter text prompts produce more focused and faster video outputs. ## Matching Input to Actions User prompts referencing free video generation n8n, 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. Base URL: `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai` | Endpoint | Method | Purpose | |----------|--------|---------| | [REDACTED_SECRET] | POST | Start a new editing session. Body: `{"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"}`. Returns `session_id`. | | `/run_sse` | POST | Send a user message. Body includes `app_name`, `session_id`, `new_message`. Stream response with `Accept: text/event-stream`. Timeout: 15 min. | | `/api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid>` | POST | Upload a file (multipart) or URL. | | `/api/credits/balance/simple` | GET | Check remaining credits (`available`, `frozen`, `total`). | | `/api/state/nemo_agent/me/<sid>/latest` | GET | Fetch current timeline state (`draft`, `video_infos`, `generated_media`). | | `/api/render/proxy/lambda` | POST | Start export. Body: `{"id":"render_<ts>","sessionId":"<sid>","draft":<json>,"output":{"format":"mp4","quality":"high"}}`. Poll status every 30s. | Accepted file types: mp4, mov, avi, webm, mkv, jpg, png, gif, webp, mp3, wav, m4a, aac. Skill attribution — read from this file's YAML frontmatter at runtime: - `X-Skill-Source`: `free-video-generation-n8n` - `X-Skill-Version`: from frontmatter `version` - `X-Skill-Platform`: detect from install path (`~/.clawhub/` → `clawhub`, `~/.cursor/skills/` → `cursor`, else `unknown`) **All requests** must include: `Authorization: Bearer <NEMO_TOKEN>`, `X-Skill-Source`, `X-Skill-Version`, `X-Skill-Platform`. Missing attribution headers will cause export to fail with 402. ### 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 | ### 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. ### Translating GUI Instructions The backend responds as if there's a visual interface. Map its instructions to API calls: - "click" or "点击" → execute the action via the relevant endpoint - "open" or "打开" → query session state to get the data - "drag/drop" or "拖拽" → send the edit command through SSE - "preview in timeline" → show a text summary of current tracks - "Export" or "导出" → run the export workflow **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) ``` ## Tips and Tricks The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "generate a short explainer video from a text description using an n8n automation flow" — 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. ## Common Workflows **Quick edit**: Upload → "generate a short explainer video from a text description using an n8n automation flow" → Download MP4. Takes 1-2 minutes 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.
