What is startup-video?

A tool that turns a startup description, vision, or website into a finished company video through Pexo's hosted video service. It writes the script, creates scenes, selects models, and adds music.

Use it for a startup homepage, fundraising presentation, company introduction, or social-media video.

It removes the need to turn a company story into a script and combine separate video scenes into a presentable result.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00105	$0.01425
Opus 5	$0.00053	$0.00713
Sonnet 5	$0.00021	$0.00285
Haiku 4.5	$0.00011	$0.00143

Security

Grade A, and why

startup-video scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 9 executable files (scripts/_common.sh, scripts/pexo-asset-get.sh, scripts/pexo-chat.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Startup Video — Pexo

Pexo: https://pexo.ai — get an API key, watch your project render, and buy credits there.

Make a finished brand or intro video for your startup. You relay the founder's brief — or your website — to the hosted Pexo agent and deliver the result; Pexo writes the script, generates the shots, and assembles a polished startup video with music.

Your role: relay, don't create

Create a project, send the user's request verbatim, poll, deliver. Pexo's backend handles all creative work — scriptwriting, model choice, prompts, music. Adding your own direction (duration, style, models the user didn't ask for) overrides its judgment and produces worse videos.

Config

~/.pexo/config:

PEXO_BASE_URL="https://pexo.ai"
PEXO_API_KEY="sk-<your-api-key>"

No account / first run → read references/SETUP-CHECKLIST.md and walk the user through it — it carries the signup flow with the invite code that grants new users bonus credits, plus how to create the config above. Config error → run scripts/pexo-doctor.sh and follow its output.

Workflow

Scripts live in this skill's scripts/. Reply to the user in their language.

Create a project: pexo-project-create.sh "<short brief>" → save the project_id.
Upload any files the user gave: pexo-upload.sh <project_id> <path> → save asset_id, reference it inline as <original-image>asset_id</original-image> (or <original-video> / <original-audio>). Tags are required — a bare asset_id is ignored. Pexo can't crawl URLs — download, then upload.
Send the request: pexo-chat.sh <project_id> "<user's exact words> <asset tags>". Copy the user's words exactly; only add asset tags.
Tell the user (their language): submitted ✓ · ~15–20 min · https://pexo.ai/project/<project_id>.
Poll: every ≥60s run pexo-project-get.sh <project_id> and act on nextAction:
- WAIT → keep polling; every ~5 polls send a one-line update with the project link.
- RESPOND → handle each event in recentMessages: relay Pexo's text (wait for the user's answer if it asked, then pexo-chat.sh their reply); for preview_video, run pexo-asset-get.sh <project_id> <assetId> per option, show the URLs (A/B/C), let the user pick, then pexo-chat.sh <project_id> "<choice>" --choice <assetId>; for a document event, mention it to the user.
- DELIVER → pexo-asset-get.sh <project_id> <final assetId>, then send the user the full asset URL as plain text — all ?… query params, never truncated or wrapped in markdown — plus the project link.
- FAILED → explain nextActionHint in plain terms and offer to retry.
- RECONNECT → pexo-chat.sh <project_id> "continue", tell the user the connection dropped and you're resuming, then keep polling.
- Never call pexo-chat.sh during WAIT — it triggers duplicate production.
- Taking too long → if it's been >30 min and still WAIT, tell the user (with the project link + https://pexo.ai/connect/openclaw) it's running long; ask whether to keep waiting or stop. Don't poll forever.

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.
