SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Creating video content programmatically requires navigating multiple Seedance model versions, operation endpoints, and asynchronous polling flows, which is error-prone without clear guidance. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Operation Routing: Maps user intent to the correct Seedance version (2.5, 2.0, 2.0 Mini, 2.0 Fast, 1.0 Pro) and operation such as text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, video editing, or video extension. - Async Polling Workflow: Submits generation tasks and polls the status endpoint until the video URL is ready, with copy-paste-ready curl, Python, and Node.js examples. - API Key & Error Handling: Guides one-time Pixazo API key setup and translates 401, 402, 429, and 5xx responses into actionable user messages. - Use Case: A content creator asks their coding agent to turn a product photo into a short promotional clip; the agent picks the image-to-video endpoint, submits the task, polls for completion, and returns the video URL. ## Quick Start Ask your agent to generate a short video of a cat walking on the beach using Seedance, and provide your Pixazo API key when prompted.

Frequently Asked Questions about seedance

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a video from text with Seedance?▼

Send a POST request to the text-to-video endpoint for your chosen Seedance version with a content array containing your prompt text. The response returns a task_id, which you poll on the result endpoint until the status is completed and a video URL is available.

How do I turn an image into a video using the Seedance API?▼

Use the first-last-frame-to-video operation on Seedance 2.5, 2.0, or 2.0 Mini, providing your image as the starting or ending frame. Seedance 1.0 Pro uses the separate generateImage2VideoTask endpoint under the byteplus path.

Which Seedance version should I use for video generation?▼

Seedance 2.5 is the primary version supporting text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, editing, and extension. Use 2.0 Fast for quicker generation or 1.0 Pro for the legacy BytePlus task-based endpoints.

Why is my Seedance video request returning a 401 error?▼

A 401 means the Pixazo API key is missing or invalid. Check the PIXAZO_API_KEY environment variable or the ~/.pixazo/api-key file, and generate a fresh key at the Pixazo API console if needed.

How long does Seedance video generation take to complete?▼

Video generation is asynchronous, so you submit a task and poll the status endpoint every 5 to 10 seconds. The recommended polling cap is about 10 minutes for video tasks before treating the request as timed out.

Can Seedance edit or extend an existing video?▼

Yes, Seedance 2.5 offers edit-video and extend-video operations for modifying or lengthening existing footage. Seedance 2.0 and 2.0 Mini also support video editing through their respective edit-video endpoints.
