| name | media-proxy |
| description | Shared helper that routes ALL paid media generation (FAL image/video, ElevenLabs music) through the GooseWorks proxies so every call bills the Ads agent — never a provider SDK's default host. Host-swaps the FAL queue URLs, loads the agent token from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json, and returns the result CDN URL. Every video-ad media capability imports this; templates never call a provider directly. |

media-proxy
The foundation capability for paid media in the video-ad pipeline. It fixes the
auth-path conflict where engine scripts called FAL/ElevenLabs directly (billing
the wrong account): all paid calls now go through
<api_base>/api/internal/{fal-proxy,elevenlabs-proxy} with ?token=&agent_id=, which
bills the Ads agent.
Crash-resume (never lose / double-bill a paid render)
A FAL submit BILLS immediately, but the local backend can blip during a multi-minute
render. Two built-in protections (automatic for every capability that imports this):
-
Poll-through-outage — _fal_run's poll loop re-attaches to the same status/result
URL through connection refused / timeout blips instead of crashing.
-
Persist + resume — each submit's request_id + poll URLs are written to
~/.gooseworks/pending-fal-jobs/. If the poller still dies, re-attach instead of
re-firing (re-firing double-bills): resume_fal(request_id) in Python, or the CLI:
resume.py --list
resume.py --request-id <id> --out final.mp4
resume_fal NEVER re-submits, so it can't double-charge.
Use it
from media_proxy import fal_generate, fal_generate_video, eleven_music, download
img = fal_generate("fal-ai/nano-banana/edit",
{"prompt": p, "image_urls": [product_url], "aspect_ratio": "9:16"})
vid = fal_generate_video("fal-ai/kling-video/v2.1/standard/image-to-video",
{"prompt": p, "image_url": keyframe_url, "duration": "10"})
eleven_music(prompt, 10500, "music.mp3", force_instrumental=True)
Contracts (load-bearing)
- Bills the Ads agent —
?token=&agent_id= from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json
(the CLI writes it; run gooseworks login if missing).
- Host-swap the FAL queue URLs — submit returns
status_url/response_url on
queue.fal.run; the helper rewrites them to the proxy base (keeps the path). Never
poll queue.fal.run directly (401 + burns credits).
- FAL inputs that are local files must be PUBLIC urls. The orchestrator hosts a
local image/audio via the MCP
get_upload_url → get_download_url presigned URL and
passes THAT url in. This module does not do MCP uploads (prefer the presigned url;
fal-storage-proxy may 404).
- Only the final
*.fal.media url is a real public URL — everything else is behind
the proxy.
