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

video-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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate_video.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Video Generator

Generate professional short-form videos using Google VEO 3.1 (with native audio) or OpenAI Sora (high visual quality, up to 12s).

Prerequisites & Setup

API Keys

You need at least one. Both gives you maximum flexibility.

VEO (Google):

  1. Go to Google AI Studio
  2. Sign in with your Google account
  3. Click "Create API Key"
  4. Copy the generated key
export GEMINI_API_KEY=your_gemini_key_here

Sora (OpenAI):

  1. Go to OpenAI Platform
  2. Create a new API key
  3. Copy the generated key
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_key_here

Install Dependencies

pip install google-genai requests

Available Models

Provider Model CLI --model Best For
VEO Veo 3.1 Standard standard (default) Quality, audio fidelity, final assets
VEO Veo 3.1 Fast fast Drafts, iteration, quick previews
Sora Sora 2 sora-2 (default) Visual quality, creative motion
Sora Sora 2 Pro sora-2-pro Highest Sora quality, slower

When to Use Which

Need Use
Native synchronized audio (dialogue, SFX) VEO - Sora has no audio
Longer clips (12 seconds) Sora - VEO maxes at 8s
Higher visual fidelity / artistic styles Sora - stronger on visual aesthetics
Fast iteration / drafts VEO Fast - quickest turnaround
4K resolution VEO - Sora uses fixed sizes
Negative prompts (exclude elements) VEO - Sora doesn't support them

Video Parameters

Parameter VEO Options Sora Options Default
Duration 4, 6, or 8 seconds 4, 8, or 12 seconds 8s
Resolution 720p, 1080p, 4K Fixed (from aspect ratio) 720p
Aspect Ratio 16:9, 9:16 16:9 -> 1280x720, 9:16 -> 720x1280 16:9
Count 1-4 variations 1-4 variations 1
Negative Prompt Supported Not supported (ignored) none

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
