# AI Content Creator

End-to-end content creation agent. Research a topic, write copy, generate images, create voiceovers, and produce video — all in one workflow. 14 endpoints spanning text generation, image generation, video, TTS, speech-to-text, web research, and content extraction. Each call is a real x402 micropayment settled on Base or Solana mainnet.

## ⚠️ Before you install

> **This skill sends your content to external paid APIs** via the Spraay x402 gateway (`gateway.spraay.app`).
>
> - **Your content leaves the local environment.** Every call transmits your prompts, text, URLs, audio files, or other inputs to third-party AI providers (Chutes AI, Bittensor, OpenRouter, Replicate, and others) through the gateway. This includes drafts, research queries, web URLs, audio recordings, and any text you provide.
> - **Real money:** Each call costs USDC via the x402 payment protocol. Your agent's wallet is debited per request. Costs range from $0.001 (model listing) to $0.50 (video generation).
> - **Privacy and confidentiality:** Do not send proprietary drafts, customer data, unpublished marketing plans, legal documents, or sensitive recordings through this skill unless you accept that the gateway operator and upstream AI providers will process (and may retain) that content.
> - **Billing risk:** Multi-step workflows (e.g., research + write + image + voiceover) chain several paid calls. Estimate total cost before starting a workflow.
>
> **Install only if you are comfortable with paid external API calls.** Use non-sensitive inputs for testing. Confirm costs before large workflows. Use a dedicated wallet with limited funds.

## How to call endpoints

```bash
bash {baseDir}/scripts/create.sh METHOD ENDPOINT '{"key":"value"}'
```

The script requires `bash` and `curl`. All calls go to `https://gateway.spraay.app`.

## Tips for best results

- **Be specific with prompts** — "Write a 500-word blog post for a B2B SaaS audience about reducing churn, conversational tone, include 3 actionable tips" beats "Write about churn."
- **Chain endpoints** — research first, then write. Content grounded in real data performs better.
- **Use different models** — `llama-3.1-70b` for long-form, `llama-3.1-8b` for quick social copy, Bittensor for a different creative voice.
- **Generate multiple images** — create 2-3 variations and let the user pick.
- **Specify dimensions** — square for Instagram, 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails, landscape for blog headers.
- **Check cost first** — use the free `gpu/models` and `models` endpoints to see available options, and `compute/estimate` (from the Spraay Compute skill) to estimate cost before committing.
