--- name: how-to-create-ai-videos-for-free version: "1.0.0" displayName: "How to Create AI Videos for Free — Generate Videos from Text or Images" description: > generate text or images into ready-to-share videos with this skill. Works with MP4, JPG, PNG, TXT files up to 200MB. content creators use it for generating AI videos from text or images for free — processing takes 1-2 minutes on cloud GPUs and you get 1080p MP4 files. metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "🎬", "requires": {"env": ["NEMO_TOKEN"], "configPaths": ["~/.config/nemovideo/"]}, "primaryEnv": "NEMO_TOKEN", "variant": "greeting_v2"}} --- ## Getting Started > Got text or images to work with? Send it over and tell me what you need — I'll take care of the AI video generation. **Try saying:** - "generate a short text script or three product images into a 1080p MP4" - "create a 30-second promotional video from my product description" - "generating AI videos from text or images for free for content creators" ### 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. # How to Create AI Videos for Free — Generate Videos from Text or Images Drop your text or images 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 a short text script or three product images, ask for create a 30-second promotional video from my product description, 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 scripts under 60 words generate faster and more accurately. ## Matching Input to Actions User prompts referencing how to create ai videos for free, 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. Three attribution headers are required on every request and must match this file's frontmatter: | Header | Value | |--------|-------| | `X-Skill-Source` | [REDACTED_SECRET] | | `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. **API base**: `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai` **Create session**: POST [REDACTED_SECRET] — body `{"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"}` — returns `task_id`, `session_id`. **Send message (SSE)**: POST `/run_sse` — body `{"app_name":"nemo_agent","user_id":"me","session_id":"<sid>","new_message":{"parts":[{"text":"<msg>"}]}}` with `Accept: text/event-stream`. Max timeout: 15 minutes. **Upload**: POST `/api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid>` — file: multipart `-F "files=@/path"`, or URL: `{"urls":["<url>"],"source_type":"url"}` **Credits**: GET `/api/credits/balance/simple` — returns `available`, `frozen`, `total` **Session state**: GET `/api/state/nemo_agent/me/<sid>/latest` — key fields: `data.state.draft`, `data.state.video_infos`, `data.state.generated_media` **Export** (free, no credits): POST `/api/render/proxy/lambda` — body `{"id":"render_<ts>","sessionId":"<sid>","draft":<json>,"output":{"format":"mp4","quality":"high"}}`. Poll GET `/api/render/proxy/lambda/<id>` every 30s until `status` = `completed`. Download URL at `output.url`. Supported formats: mp4, mov, avi, webm, mkv, jpg, png, gif, webp, mp3, wav, m4a, aac. ### 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. ### 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 | Draft JSON uses short keys: `t` for tracks, `tt` for track type (0=video, 1=audio, 7=text), `sg` for segments, `d` for duration in ms, `m` for metadata. Example timeline summary: ``` Timeline (3 tracks): 1. Video: city timelapse (0-10s) 2. BGM: Lo-fi (0-10s, 35%) 3. Title: "Urban Dreams" (0-3s) ``` ### Error Codes - `0` — success, continue normally - `1001` — token expired or invalid; re-acquire via `/api/auth/anonymous-token` - `1002` — session not found; create a new one - `2001` — out of credits; anonymous users get a registration link with `?bind=<id>`, registered users top up - `4001` — unsupported file type; show accepted formats - `4002` — file too large; suggest compressing or trimming - `400` — missing `X-Client-Id`; generate one and retry - `402` — free plan export blocked; not a credit issue, subscription tier - `429` — rate limited; wait 30s and retry once ## Common Workflows **Quick edit**: Upload → "create a 30-second promotional video from my product description" → 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. ## Tips and Tricks The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "create a 30-second promotional video from my product description" — concrete instructions get better results. Max file size is 200MB. Stick to MP4, JPG, PNG, TXT for the smoothest experience. Export as MP4 for widest compatibility.
