Get animated video clips ready to post, without touching a single slider. Upload your still images (JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC, up to 200MB), say something like "turn my photo into a smooth animated video with transitions", and download 1080p MP4 when it's done. Built for social media creators who move fast and want to turn photos into videos without video editing skills.

## Getting Started
> Ready when you are. Drop your still images here or describe what you want to make.
**Try saying:**
- "convert three product photos or a single landscape image into a 1080p MP4"
- "turn my photo into a smooth animated video with transitions"
- "converting still photos into shareable video content for social media creators"
### Getting Connected
Before handling any user request, establish a connection to the backend API. Show a brief status like "Connecting...".
**If `NEMO_TOKEN` is in the environment**, use it directly and create a session. Otherwise, acquire a free starter token:
- Generate a UUID as client identifier
- POST to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/auth/anonymous-token` with the `X-Client-Id` header
- The response includes a `token` with 100 free credits valid for 7 days β use it as NEMO_TOKEN
**Then create a session** by POSTing to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with Bearer authorization and body `{"task_name":"project","language":"en"}`. The `session_id` in the response is needed for all following requests.
Tell the user you're ready. Keep the technical details out of the chat.
# AI Image to Video β Convert Images into Video Clips
Drop your still images in the chat and tell me what you need. I'll handle the AI video creation on cloud GPUs β you don't need anything installed locally.
Here's a typical use: you send a three product photos or a single landscape image, ask for turn my photo into a smooth animated video with transitions, and about 30-60 seconds later you've got a MP4 file ready to download. The whole thing runs at 1080p by default.
One thing worth knowing β single high-resolution images produce smoother motion output than compressed thumbnails.
## Matching Input to Actions
User prompts referencing ai image to video com, aspect ratio, text overlays, or audio tracks get routed to the corresponding action via keyword and intent classification.
| User says... | Action | Skip SSE? |
|-------------|--------|----------|
| "export" / "ε―ΌεΊ" / "download" / "send me the video" | β Β§3.5 Export | β
|
| "credits" / "η§―ε" / "balance" / "δ½ι’" | β Β§3.3 Credits | β
|
| "status" / "ηΆζ" / "show tracks" | β Β§3.4 State | β
|
| "upload" / "δΈδΌ " / user sends file | β Β§3.2 Upload | β
|
| Everything else (generate, edit, add BGMβ¦) | β Β§3.1 SSE | β |
## Cloud Render Pipeline Details
Each export job queues on a cloud GPU node that composites video layers, applies platform-spec compression (H.264, up to 1080x1920), and returns a download URL within 30-90 seconds. The session token carries render job IDs, so closing the tab before completion orphans the job.
All calls go to `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai`. The main endpoints:
1. **Session** β `POST /api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with `{"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"}`. Gives you a `session_id`.
2. **Chat (SSE)** β `POST /run_sse` with `session_id` and your message in `new_message.parts[0].text`. Set `Accept: text/event-stream`. Up to 15 min.
3. **Upload** β `POST /api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid>` β multipart file or JSON with URLs.
4. **Credits** β `GET /api/credits/balance/simple` β returns `available`, `frozen`, `total`.
5. **State** β `GET /api/state/nemo_agent/me/<sid>/latest` β current draft and media info.
6. **Export** β `POST /api/render/proxy/lambda` with render ID and draft JSON. Poll `GET /api/render/proxy/lambda/<id>` every 30s for `completed` status and download URL.
Formats: mp4, mov, avi, webm, mkv, jpg, png, gif, webp, mp3, wav, m4a, aac.
Skill attribution β read from this file's YAML frontmatter at runtime:
- `X-Skill-Source`: `ai-image-to-video-com`
- `X-Skill-Version`: from frontmatter `version`
- `X-Skill-Platform`: detect from install path (`~/.clawhub/` β `clawhub`, `~/.cursor/skills/` β `cursor`, else `unknown`)
Include `Authorization: Bearer <NEMO_TOKEN>` and all attribution headers on every request β omitting them triggers a 402 on export.
Draft JSON uses short keys: `t` for tracks, `tt` for track type (0=video, 1=audio, 7=text), `sg` for segments, `d` for duration in ms, `m` for metadata.
Example timeline summary:
```
Timeline (3 tracks): 1. Video: city timelapse (0-10s) 2. BGM: Lo-fi (0-10s, 35%) 3. Title: "Urban Dreams" (0-3s)
```
### Backend Response Translation
The backend assumes a GUI exists. Translate these into API actions:
| Backend says | You do |
|-------------|--------|
| "click [button]" / "ηΉε»" | Execute via API |
| "open [panel]" / "ζεΌ" | Query session state |
| "drag/drop" / "ζζ½" | Send edit via SSE |
| "preview in timeline" | Show track summary |
| "Export button" / "ε―ΌεΊ" | Execute export workflow |
### Reading the SSE Stream
Text events go straight to the user (after GUI translation). Tool calls stay internal. Heartbeats and empty `data:` lines mean the backend is still working β show "β³ Still working..." every 2 minutes.
About 30% of edit operations close the stream without any text. When that happens, poll `/api/state` to confirm the timeline changed, then tell the user what was updated.
### Error Codes
- `0` β success, continue normally
- `1001` β token expired or invalid; re-acquire via `/api/auth/anonymous-token`
- `1002` β session not found; create a new one
- `2001` β out of credits; anonymous users get a registration link with `?bind=<id>`, registered users top up
- `4001` β unsupported file type; show accepted formats
- `4002` β file too large; suggest compressing or trimming
- `400` β missing `X-Client-Id`; generate one and retry
- `402` β free plan export blocked; not a credit issue, subscription tier
- `429` β rate limited; wait 30s and retry once
## Tips and Tricks
The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "turn my photo into a smooth animated video with transitions" β concrete instructions get better results.
Max file size is 200MB. Stick to JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC for the smoothest experience.
Export as MP4 for widest compatibility across all social platforms.
## Common Workflows
**Quick edit**: Upload β "turn my photo into a smooth animated video with transitions" β Download MP4. Takes 30-60 seconds for a 30-second clip.
**Batch style**: Upload multiple files in one session. Process them one by one with different instructions. Each gets its own render.
**Iterative**: Start with a rough cut, preview the result, then refine. The session keeps your timeline state so you can keep tweaking.
