veo-generator

veo-generator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BlackBeltTechnology/pi-agent-dashboard. It costs 95 tokens per session (1,540 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A renderer that turns an existing Veo 3.1 shot package into MP4 video clips using Google's video-generation API. The shot package already contains each clip's prompt, references, and consistency settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate one video clip per camera cut from shot markdown files, optionally using reference images, seeds, or chained frames for continuous transitions.
Why use it?
It separates video rendering from the earlier scripting work, so the renderer can use prepared shots without rewriting their prompts.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

veo-generator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Veo Generator

Turns an already-scripted shot package into actual video. The prompting is done by the veo-showreel-production-kit skill (STYLE BIBLE → per-shot shots/*.md); this skill is the render step that calls the Veo 3.1 API and downloads mp4s.

It expects the layout the production kit emits:

<Project>/
  .env                      <- (optional) per-project API key lives here
  video_production/
    shots/shot_*.md         <- source of truth: prompt, negative, seed, aspect, refs
    storyboard/*.png        <- first-frame sketches + 00_world_anchor.png
    renders/                <- mp4 output (created here)

Each shots/shot_NN.md already contains everything the renderer needs: the ▶ Full Veo prompt block, the ⛔ Negative prompt block, and a Reproduction & consistency line with the seed, aspect ratio, resolution, reference image(s) and first-frame image. The renderer parses those — it never re-invents the prompt.

Prerequisites

  • The pi-veo CLI (this package). Runs as TypeScript via pi's jiti loader — no build step.
  • ffmpeg — only needed for --chain (seamless A→B last-frame handoff). Declared in pi.tools and resolved via the tool registry; absent → non-chain videos still generate.
  • An API key (see below). Get one at https://aistudio.google.com/apikey. Declared as an env probe (GEMINI_API_KEY) in pi.tools. The registry recognizes GEMINI_API_KEY only — the CLI's VEO_API_KEY / GOOGLE_API_KEY aliases still work at run time but are NOT tracked in Settings → Tools.

API key — per project or global

Resolution order, first non-empty wins:

# Source Use
1 --api-key <KEY> flag one-off
2 VEO_API_KEY / GEMINI_API_KEY / GOOGLE_API_KEY env var machine-wide
3 <Project>/.env or …/video_production/.env per-project key
4 this package's .env global fallback

Copy .env.example and set VEO_API_KEY=…. Never commit real keys.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
