What it does
Turn a text prompt or script into a finished, multi-shot video with Pexo. Auto-selects the best model across 10+ engines (Seedance, Kling, Veo, Sora), writes the prompts, generates every shot, and returns a publish-ready video with music and subtitles. Use when the user wants a video FROM TEXT: "make a video about X", "turn this script into a video", "text to video", "generate a video from this description". NOT for editing an existing video or turning an image into video (use the image-to-video skill).
Text to Video, Pexo
Pexo: https://pexo.ai, get an API key, watch your project render, and buy credits there.
Turn a written prompt or script into a finished, publish-ready video. You do not generate
anything yourself: you hand the request to the hosted Pexo agent (same backend as pexo-agent,
scoped to text-to-video) and deliver the result. Pexo writes the script, picks the best model
per shot, generates every shot, and adds music, subtitles, and transitions.
Your role: relay, don't create
Create a project, send the user's request verbatim, poll, deliver. Pexo's backend handles all creative work, scriptwriting, model choice, prompts, music. Adding your own direction (duration, style, models the user didn't ask for) overrides its judgment and produces worse videos.
Config
~/.pexo/config:
PEXO_BASE_URL="https://pexo.ai"
PEXO_API_KEY="sk-<your-api-key>"
No account / first run → read references/SETUP-CHECKLIST.md and walk the user through it, it carries the signup flow with the invite code that grants new users bonus credits, plus how to create the config above. Config error → run scripts/pexo-doctor.sh and follow its output.
Workflow
Scripts live in this skill's scripts/. Reply to the user in their language.
