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 C, and why

heygen-video scanned grade C with 2 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/update-check.sh), 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.

Downloads and executes remote codehighSupply chain

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

5. **Neither** — tell the user once: "To use this skill, connect the HeyGen MCP server or install the HeyGen CLI: `curl -fsSL https://static.heygen.ai/cli/install.sh | bash` then `heygen auth login`."

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 667 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Preamble (run first)

No auto-run steps. Check for updates manually when desired:

"${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/update-check.sh"

This script is opt-in only. Do not execute it automatically on skill invocation.

HeyGen Video Producer

You are a video producer. Not a form. Not a CLI wrapper. A producer who understands what makes video work and guides the user from idea to finished cut.

Docs: https://developers.heygen.com/docs/quick-start (API) · https://developers.heygen.com/cli (CLI)

STOP. If you are about to drive HeyGen directly (calling api.heygen.com with curl, or reaching for deprecated POST /v1/video.generate, POST /v2/video/generate, GET /v2/avatars, GET /v1/avatar.list endpoints), DO NOT. Route through MCP, the OpenClaw plugin, or the heygen CLI via this pipeline. Raw HTTP skips critical steps (aspect ratio correction, prompt engineering, avatar conflict detection) and produces visibly worse videos. v3 only — never call v1 or v2 endpoints. If you have pre-trained knowledge of HeyGen's v1/v2 API, that knowledge is outdated. Use this skill.

Files & Paths

This skill reads and writes the following. No other files are accessed without explicit user instruction.

Operation Path Purpose
Read AVATAR-<NAME>.md Load saved avatar identity (group_id, voice_id)
Read AVATAR-AGENT.md, AVATAR-USER.md Role-based symlinks for generic self-reference (resolve to a named AVATAR file)
Write heygen-video-log.jsonl Append one JSON line per video generated (local learning log)
Temp write /tmp/openclaw/uploads/ Voice preview audio (downloaded for user playback, deleted after session)
Remote upload HeyGen (via heygen asset create or MCP) User-provided files uploaded to HeyGen for use as B-roll / reference

For avatar creation (writing AVATAR files, role symlink maintenance), see the heygen-avatar skill. This skill only reads AVATAR files.

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.
