What is Life Hack & Gadget Demo Video Generator?
This skill leverages the WeryAI API to produce professional-grade vertical videos (9:16) optimized for social media and product seeding. It excels at capturing the pain-to-fix beat, where a problem is introduced and solved within a tight 5 to 15-second window. By using Openclaw Skills architecture, it automates the complex prompt expansion required to translate simple user ideas into high-fidelity visual instructions for advanced models like KLING and VEO.
The skill is specifically designed for technical practitioners and marketers who need to demonstrate utility quickly. It supports both text-to-video and image-to-video workflows, allowing users to provide a reference image of a messy stove or a cluttered desk and watch the AI animate a tool providing a pristine solution. Its core strength lies in its mandatory prompt expansion logic, ensuring every video has professional lighting, specific camera angles, and legible motion.
Life Hack & Gadget Demo Video Generator Use Cases
- Creating viral short-form content for platforms like TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts.
- Generating product seeding clips for new gadgets or home utility tools.
- Developing before-and-after demo reels for cleaning products or organizational hacks.
- Producing anthropomorphic demonstrations featuring animals using human tools for high engagement.
How Life Hack & Gadget Demo Video Generator Works
- The user provides a brief (e.g., 'cat using a lint roller') and selects a performance tier (Best, Good, or Fast).
- The skill performs mandatory prompt expansion, adding technical details like shot scale, light quality, and the specific 'payoff' motion.
- A pre-submit parameter table is generated for the user to review the final production prompt and model settings.
- Upon confirmation, the skill executes a Node.js script that interacts with the WeryAI API endpoints.
- The script polls for task completion and returns a playable, hosted video URL to the user.
Life Hack & Gadget Demo Video Generator Setup
To use this within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, ensure you have Node.js 18+ installed and an active WeryAI API key.
# Set your API key environment variable
export WERYAI_API_KEY='your_secret_key_here'
# Run a dry-run to verify the prompt expansion
node scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '{"model":"KLING_V3_0_PRO","prompt":"Cat hair on sofa clean","duration":5}' --dry-run
