--- name: video-animation version: "1.0.0" displayName: "Video Animation — Animate Images Into Video Clips" description: > Get animated video clips ready to post, without touching a single slider. Upload your images or video clips (MP4, MOV, PNG, JPG, up to 500MB), say something like "animate these images into a smooth 30-second explainer video with motion effects", and download 1080p MP4 when it's done. Built for marketers and content creators who move fast and want to create animated videos without learning complex animation software. metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "🎬", "requires": {"env": ["NEMO_TOKEN"], "configPaths": ["~/.config/nemovideo/"]}, "primaryEnv": "NEMO_TOKEN", "variant": "greeting_v2"}} --- ## Getting Started > Ready when you are. Drop your images or video clips here or describe what you want to make. **Try saying:** - "animate a series of five product illustration images into a 1080p MP4" - "animate these images into a smooth 30-second explainer video with motion effects" - "turning static images into animated videos for marketers and content creators" ### 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. # Video Animation — Animate Images Into Video Clips Send me your images or video clips and describe the result you want. The AI animation generation runs on remote GPU nodes — nothing to install on your machine. A quick example: upload a series of five product illustration images, type "animate these images into a smooth 30-second explainer video with motion effects", and you'll get a 1080p MP4 back in roughly 1-2 minutes. All rendering happens server-side. Worth noting: fewer images per sequence produce smoother motion transitions. ## Matching Input to Actions User prompts referencing video animation, 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. Skill attribution — read from this file's YAML frontmatter at runtime: - `X-Skill-Source`: `video-animation` - `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. 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) ``` ### 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 | ### Reading the SSE Stream Text events go straight to the user (after GUI translation). Tool calls stay internal. Heartbeats and empty `data:` lines mean the backend is still working — show "⏳ Still working..." every 2 minutes. About 30% of edit operations close the stream without any text. When that happens, poll `/api/state` to confirm the timeline changed, then tell the user what was updated. ### 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 | ## Common Workflows **Quick edit**: Upload → "animate these images into a smooth 30-second explainer video with motion effects" → 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 "animate these images into a smooth 30-second explainer video with motion effects" — concrete instructions get better results. Max file size is 500MB. Stick to MP4, MOV, PNG, JPG for the smoothest experience. Export as MP4 for widest compatibility.
