Generate Video

Generate videos using Veo 3.1 (veo-3.1-generate-preview) with native audio, 720p/1080p/4K resolution, and 4-8 second clips.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks to:

• Generate a video from a text prompt (text-to-video)
• Animate an existing image (image-to-video)
• Create a styled video clip using the art style library
• Build an image-to-video pipeline with auto-generated starting frames

Veo video generation takes 11 seconds to 6 minutes. The script handles polling internally and outputs only a file path when complete.

Always run the generate script as a background task to avoid blocking the conversation and bloating context with polling output:
