Hidden truth reveal (polished → brutal → one line)
Template (seconds below assume duration 10; rescale for 5 or 15): 0–3s hook: *what you use daily comes from here* (user’s X); 3–8s stark contrast montage (sleek product ↔ labor, factory, waste, or source environment—non-gore, suggestive not graphic); 8–10s one-line summary that lands the thesis. English subtitles with explicit second windows. Default duration is 10 when unspecified.
Dependencies: WERYAI_API_KEY + Node.js 18+. {baseDir}/scripts/video_gen.js + WERYAI_VIDEO_API.md under {baseDir}/resources/. No other Cursor skills required.
Prerequisites
WERYAI_API_KEYmust be set; Node 18+;httpsimages only.- Non-empty
modelin JSON; pick from Recommended models or frozen tables. - Each
waitconsumes credits.
Security, secrets, and API hosts
WERYAI_API_KEY: Secret;requires.env/primaryEnv—never commit values.- API hosts:
video_gen.jsuseshttps://api.weryai.com(tasks) andhttps://api-growth-agent.weryai.com(models list). - Run in an isolated environment when possible.
Prompt expansion (mandatory)
- Duration: Default 10; 5 or 15 when the user asks and the model allows.
- Timeline scaling: Rescale 0–3 / 3–5 / 5–7 / 7–10 proportionally when
duration≠ 10; keep the four-beat order.
Locked caption rhythm (example for duration 10):
- 0.0–3.0s — Hook naming the daily X (user-supplied): e.g. *YOUR DAILY X COMES FROM HERE* (keep ≤6 words per line).
- 3.0–5.0s — Polished beat label: e.g. *SHELF PERFECT*.
- 5.0–7.0s — Harsh beat label: e.g. *HIDDEN COST*.
- 7.0–10.0s — One-line verdict (user-themed): e.g. *THAT’S THE TRUTH* (customize to topic).
Visuals: Hard cuts; high contrast lighting; hands / machines / environments—avoid graphic gore or identifiable real people in exploitative frames. Motion every beat.
Typography: Bold sans, white + black outline, lower third, fades; English only on screen unless user opts out.
Audio: Tension bed / impact whoosh if generate_audio true—no named tracks.
Negatives (Kling): illegible captions, watermark, muddy text.
Exception: User supplies finished long prompt + no rewrite—still show full text in confirmation.
Confirmation: Full expanded prompt in the table.
Niche checklist
- Contrast must read in silent skim—image does half the work.
- Middle beats are two emotional temperatures, not a lecture.
Examples below are targets only.
Workflow
- Text and/or image-to-video (multi-image only SEEDANCE_2_0, ≤3 URLs).
- Collect product or topic X, optional reference
image, tier. - Expand with locked windows + visuals; translate user Chinese brief to English on-screen lines unless they request another language.
- Validate fields vs frozen tables.
- Confirmation table + full
prompt→ user confirm. node {baseDir}/scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '…'.- Return
[Video](url); no code fences around links.
CLI reference
~~~sh node {baseDir}/scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '{"model":"KLING_V3_0_PRO","prompt":"…","duration":10,"aspect_ratio":"9:16","generate_audio":true,"negative_prompt":"illegible text, watermark, garbled captions"}' node {baseDir}/scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '{"model":"SEEDANCE_2_0","prompt":"…","duration":10,"aspect_ratio":"9:16","resolution":"720p","generate_audio":true}' ~~~

Definition of done
Video or clear error. prompt contains timed English subtitle block matching the four-beat order, with second ranges scaled to duration (or user’s approved variant).
Boundaries (out of scope)
- Not a journalism fact-check; opinion / hook tone—user responsible for claims.
- No gore; no harassment of real individuals.
- Captions only via prompt; no NLE export spec.
- Use
resources/WERYAI_VIDEO_API.mdfor CLI; nonegative_prompton Seedance. - Multi-image only SEEDANCE_2_0, max 3.
Example prompts
Coffee cup: shelf glamour vs harvest-labor montage, verdict line about price to growersSmartphone: polished device vs mine/e-waste suggestion, one-line kickerImage URL of sneakers → same four-window subtitle scheduleFast fashion haul vs factory floor suggestion—verdict about true cost

Product still → motion + same schedule.
Tips
- If claims are sensitive, soften to “what they don’t show” rhetoric.
- Verdict line should fit one breath.
