Overview

What is Short Video Agent Kit?

A provider-neutral short-form AI video toolkit for agents. It gives Codex, Claude, Cursor, Hermes, OpenClaw and other MCP clients a single interface for building dry-run payloads and, when explicitly enabled, generating vertical video through Sora/OpenAI, Gemini Veo, xAI/Grok and Seedance/PiAPI-style providers. It is designed for anyone building agent workflows that need safe, credit-free prompt-to-video payload validation before optional paid generation.

How to use Short Video Agent Kit?

Install globally via npm (npm install -g short-video-agent-kit) or run directly with npx. Use the CLI commands doctor, generate, payload, manifest, privacy-audit to inspect providers, build plans, and generate video. Dry-run is the default; pass --live or set SHORT_VIDEO_DRY_RUN=false to enable paid provider calls. The package also ships as an MCP server (short-video-mcp) supporting stdio and HTTP transports. Configure provider API keys in a .env file.

FAQ from Short Video Agent Kit

Which video providers are supported?

OpenAI Sora (openai_sora), Gemini Veo (gemini_veo), xAI/Grok (xai_grok), and Seedance/PiAPI (seedance_piapi).

Is an API key required to try it?

No. Generation is dry-run by default, so the kit returns the exact payload plan without making any provider call or spending credits.

How do I enable actual paid generation?

Pass the --live flag to the CLI, set live=true in the MCP tool call, or set the environment variable SHORT_VIDEO_DRY_RUN=false.

How are API keys handled?

Keys are detected from environment variables (or a .env file) and checked for readiness via short-video-agent-kit doctor, but they are never printed or returned by any tool.
