seedance

seedance is a skill for Claude Code from SlavaSexton/ComfyUI-Agent-Kit. It costs 105 tokens per session (2,268 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Prompting instructions for ByteDance Seedance models, which generate video and synchronised audio from text, images, video clips, or audio clips. Seedance can be used through services such as Dreamina or BytePlus ModelArk, and in ComfyUI.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing or debugging prompts for text-to-video, reference-to-video, video extension, and video-with-audio tasks.
Why use it?
They help keep generated videos aligned with reference faces, characters, sound, and requested edits.

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

seedance 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 6d 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 — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Seedance video prompting

ByteDance's Seedance family generates video and audio jointly and takes multimodal references (images, video clips, audio clips) that a prompt addresses by label. Getting the labels and the task type right matters more than adjectives: the same sentence can be read as "reference this" or "edit this" depending on one word.

Load reference.md for the full formulas, the failure table, worked examples and the ComfyUI parameters. Load supplementary.md only for non-official leads about 2.5; it never overrides reference.md and carries a conflict ledger. This file is the router and the rules you need before writing a single line.

Which model you are talking to

Model Where it runs Refs per pass Max length In ComfyUI
Seedance 2.5 Dreamina, Jimeng AI, Doubao Pro, and ComfyUI since core v0.31.0 30 img + 10 video + 10 audio (audio-only allowed) 4 to 30s; nest-extend to 60s; Long Video mode 30 to 180s in one shot Yes, since 2026-08-08
Seedance 2.0 / 2.0 Mini / 2.0 Fast BytePlus ModelArk, ComfyUI 9 img + 3 video + 3 audio 15s Yes
Seedance 1.5 Pro BytePlus ModelArk, ComfyUI n/a (no omni-reference) 4 to 12s, min 4s enforced Yes, and the only one there with generate_audio
Seedance 1.0 Lite / Pro / Pro Fast BytePlus ModelArk, ComfyUI n/a n/a Yes

Seedance 2.5 reached ComfyUI on 2026-08-08 (core v0.31.0, PR 15395), and this file said the opposite until 2026-08-09. The old line, "Seedance 2.5 has no ComfyUI nodes", was correct on 2026-08-01 and went stale a week later. Kept as a correction rather than silently replaced.

How to build it now. 2.5 is a model option inside the SAME ByteDance2* nodes, not new nodes: ByteDance2TextToVideoNode, ByteDance2FirstLastFrameNode, ByteDance2ReferenceNode (category partner/video/ByteDance). Set the model DynamicCombo to Seedance 2.5 and the widgets underneath change. Minimal graph: the node's VIDEO output straight into SaveVideo.video.

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.
