Data Science & ML

Generates, remixes, and manages high-quality AI videos using OpenAI’s Sora API via a specialized CLI.

This skill provides a powerful interface for integrating Sora’s video generation capabilities directly into your development and creative workflows. It automates complex tasks such as structured prompt augmentation, asynchronous job polling, and batch processing, allowing you to create product demos, UI mocks, or cinematic assets with granular control. By utilizing a deterministic CLI-based approach, it ensures consistent results across model versions like sora-2 and sora-2-pro while strictly adhering to safety guardrails and production-oriented prompt structures.
