What is Pexo Video Ad Generator?
The Pexo Video Ad skill enables AI coding agents to produce professional, high-converting video advertisements for platforms like Meta, TikTok, and YouTube. By acting as a seamless relay between the developer's agent and the hosted Pexo agent, this skill takes product briefs, media assets, or concepts and returns ready-to-run marketing videos complete with scripted hooks, paced shots, and aligned music.
Integrating this tool into your collection of Openclaw Skills ensures your AI workflow avoids complex rendering processes or creative guesswork. Instead of writing custom prompts or managing asset timelines, your AI agent coordinates directly with Pexo's specialized backend to deliver reliable, high-performing visual assets.
Pexo Video Ad Generator Use Cases
- Social Media Ad Campaigns: Instantly generate video ads for Meta, TikTok, or YouTube from a single product photo or text description.
- E-commerce Product Promotion: Automatically convert inventory photos into dynamic, scroll-stopping video commercials with converting hooks.
- Rapid Creative Iteration: Refine and tweak existing ads with feedback like "make it shorter" or "new music" while keeping the exact same project context.
- Automated Video Marketing Pipelines: Connect your AI agent to content creation schedules to run promotional campaigns at scale without manual video production software.
How Pexo Video Ad Generator Works
- Initialize Project: The agent spins up a video project utilizing
pexo-project-create.shand captures the unique project identifier. - Asset Upload: High-quality product images, audio tracks, or brand videos are uploaded using
pexo-upload.shand reference tags (such as<original-image>) are generated. - Relay Instructions: The agent passes the user's exact requirements alongside the asset tags directly to Pexo's AI using the
pexo-chat.shcommand. - Poll and Process: The system monitors the generation state via
pexo-project-get.shon an automated loop to respond to interactive events (like choosing A/B test variations) and re-connect on interruptions. - Asset Delivery: Once production finishes, the agent retrieves the fully rendered asset URL with
pexo-asset-get.shand displays it directly to the user. - Iterative Revision: If the user asks for changes, the agent reuses the existing project ID to instruct Pexo to revise the video while maintaining full contextual awareness.

Pexo Video Ad Generator Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill interacts with the Pexo API using a structured set of shell scripts and handles state payloads defined by the workspace. The script routing schema is structured as follows:
| Script Name | Arguments | Output / Action |
|---|---|---|
pexo-project-create.sh |
<brief> |
Returns a unique project_id string |
pexo-upload.sh |
<project_id> <file_path> |
Returns an asset_id for video, audio, or image inline tags |
pexo-chat.sh |
<project_id> "<message>" [--choice <id>] |
Sends conversational input or option selections |
pexo-project-get.sh |
<project_id> |
Returns JSON payload with nextAction and recentMessages |
pexo-asset-get.sh |
<project_id> <asset_id> |
Returns JSON configuration containing the final video url |
pexo-doctor.sh |
None | Evaluates environment setup, dependency presence, and API keys |
Polling States (nextAction)
WAIT: The system is rendering. Continue polling every 60+ seconds.RESPOND: Interactive action needed. Relay text or prompt the user to choose between generated preview options (preview_videoviapexo-asset-get.sh).DELIVER: Production is complete. Retrieve the final asset URL.RECONNECT: Resends a continue message to recover dropped generation threads.FAILED: Aborts execution and relays the failure error context vianextActionHint.
Pexo Video Ad Generator Advanced Features
- Context-Preserving Revisions: Supports executing revisions on the same project ID, preventing the loss of previous server-side generation contexts.
- Interactive A/B Option Previews: Handles multi-choice interactive assets, allowing users to choose between generated mockups (e.g. choice A, B, or C) before executing final render sequences.
- Robust Polling State Machine: Automatically manages connectivity loss, long rendering delays (30+ minutes), and prevents script double-execution using state-based locking.
- Inline HTML Tagging for Media: Allows precise injection of input videos, image assets, or audios in chat directives using structured custom XML tags like
<original-image>and<original-audio>.
