video-generator

video-generator is a skill for Codex from leynos/visual-storytelling-skills. It costs 108 tokens per session (3,708 once invoked), scanned A, original, ISC.

A production workflow for turning approved shot descriptions and storyboard images into local video clips through the Higgsfield Model Context Protocol, a way for software tools to exchange requests and files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to submit video-generation jobs, monitor them until completion, save the results, record failed or repeated shots, and define the final assembly order.
Why use it?
It handles the operational work between writing a video prompt and having a finished clip on disk, including uploads, job tracking, downloads, and retakes.

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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 286 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Video Generator

Turns a completed shot-specifier handoff into generated video clips through the Higgsfield Model Context Protocol (MCP). This skill begins only after shot-specifier Phase 8 has produced prompt files, storyboard frames, model routing, generation strategies, explicit audio-generation preferences, and prompts/manifest.md. scene-inventory-extractor-v2 stops at its Phase 13 handoff and is not a direct input to production video generation.

Do not use this skill for image generation; use nanobanana through scene-inventory-extractor-v2 or shot-specifier for that. Do not backfill missing scene analysis or shot direction here; hand back to scene-inventory-extractor-v2 or shot-specifier when upstream fields are absent.

This skill owns the operational gap between "prompt written" and "clip exists on disk": resolve local paths, upload or register media, cache returned handles, submit jobs, poll until terminal status, download outputs, record retakes, and write assembly order. A shot is not complete until a local video file exists or a blocker is recorded.

The job is to be boringly competent: choose an approved Higgsfield video model, pass the right images in the right roles, submit resumable jobs, and leave enough state that a later agent can continue without guessing.

Read Before Running

  • For execution validation, live-schema constraints, default overrides, and empirical output checks, read references/model-routing.md. Model choice and model-native prompt ordering are owned upstream by shot-specifier/references/model-routing.md; do not re-route shots here unless the manifest is being explicitly repaired.
  • For Seedance 2.0-specific multimodal reference planning, prompt structure, duration defaults, quality/speed decisions, and troubleshooting, load seedance-2-deep-dive whenever a job uses seedance_2_0.
  • For Kling 3.0-specific shot structure, camera language, Elements, Motion Control, native audio/dialogue, product prompting, and troubleshooting, load kling-3-0-deep-dive whenever a job uses kling3_0.
  • For converting structured [TAG] prompt files into model-native prompt strings, read references/prompt-flattening.md.
  • For shots with key frames, read references/key-frame-decomposition.md.
  • For media uploads and job state, read references/media-upload-and-state.md.
  • For what Firecrawl confirmed about the public Higgsfield MCP and SDK surfaces, read references/higgsfield-mcp-research.md.

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.
