Video

Your agent can't run media tooling or render video itself; this edits existing clips and generates new ones from a prompt.

Audio & Video

Use when

You need a video, whether to find real stock footage, generate a new clip, or edit one you have.

Not for

Pure audio work, transcription, reading text out of a video, or live streaming.

What you can do

Each is a sub-skill of Video; the router picks the right one for your request.

What you get back

file (video/mp4)

Returns a downloadable file, not base64. A stock-footage search may instead return candidate clips for the caller to choose from.

When it checks with you first

The request could mean find real footage or generate a new clip, and no source video or intent makes it clear.

Run it

Skills run through one gateway with your Faro token. Hand it an intent in plain language; Faro routes to the right sub-skill, runs it, and bills per call.

curl -X POST "https://skill.askfaro.com/skills/video/run" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FARO_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"intent":{"prompt":"Find free video clips of mountains"}}'

Example requests

  • Find free video clips of mountains
  • Generate a low-cost 6-second 720p clip of waves crashing on a beach
  • Convert this MP4 to WebM for use in a web player
