What is OATDA Video Status?

OATDA Video Status is a critical utility within the ecosystem of Openclaw Skills designed to bridge the gap between initial generation requests and final asset delivery. Since high-quality AI video generation is computationally intensive and operates asynchronously, this skill allows agents to poll the OATDA API for real-time updates on a specific task ID.

By implementing this skill, developers can create robust workflows that handle the entire video lifecycle—from pending and processing states to final completion or error handling. It ensures that users receive timely updates and direct access to their generated mp4 files once the rendering process is finished.

OATDA Video Status Use Cases

  • Polling the status of a video generation task started by the oatda-generate-video skill.
  • Retrieving the final CDN or direct video URL once a task is marked as completed.
  • Auditing the computational cost and provider details for specific AI video jobs.
  • Debugging failed video generation tasks by capturing detailed error messages from the OATDA platform.

How OATDA Video Status Works

  1. The agent identifies a task ID provided by the user or a previous workflow step.
  2. The skill resolves the OATDA API key from environment variables or local credential files.
  3. A GET request is dispatched to the OATDA video-status endpoint using the unique task ID.
  4. The skill parses the JSON response to determine the current lifecycle state (pending, processing, completed, or failed).
  5. The agent provides the user with a status-specific update or the final download link and cost breakdown.

OATDA Video Status Setup

Ensure you have curl and jq installed on your system. You must also set your OATDA API key:

# Option 1: Set environment variable
export OATDA_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

# Option 2: Use credentials file
mkdir -p ~/.oatda
echo '{"profiles": {"defaultProfile": {"apiKey": "your_api_key_here"}}}' > ~/.oatda/credentials.json

OATDA Video Status Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill interacts with a structured JSON response to provide clear feedback. Key fields include:

Field Description
taskId Unique identifier for the video generation job.
status Current state: pending, processing, completed, or failed.
videoUrl The public link to view or download the generated video.
costs Object containing totalCost and currency for the generation.
provider The underlying AI model provider (e.g., minimax).

OATDA Video Status Advanced Features

  • Automatic API key resolution from multiple sources including environment variables and local JSON profiles.
  • Intelligent status handling that provides human-readable feedback based on the OATDA task lifecycle.
  • Support for retrieving both direct and CDN-hosted video URLs for flexible asset management.
  • Detailed cost tracking per task to monitor usage within Openclaw Skills automation pipelines.
