| description | Use when generating reference-based videos with Alibaba Cloud Model Studio Wan R2V models (wan2.6-r2v-flash, wan2.6-r2v). Use when creating multi-shot videos from reference video/image material, preserving character style, or documenting reference-to-video request/response flows. |
| version | 1.0.0 |

Model Studio Wan R2V
Validation
mkdir -p output/aliyun-wan-r2v
python -m py_compile skills/ai/video/aliyun-wan-r2v/scripts/prepare_r2v_request.py && echo "py_compile_ok" > output/aliyun-wan-r2v/validate.txt
Pass criteria: command exits 0 and output/aliyun-wan-r2v/validate.txt is generated.
Output And Evidence
- Save reference input metadata, request payloads, and task outputs in
output/aliyun-wan-r2v/.
- Keep at least one polling result snapshot.
Use Wan R2V for reference-to-video generation. This is different from i2v (single image to video).
Critical model names
Use one of these exact model strings:
wan2.6-r2v-flashwan2.6-r2v
Newer official releases may prefer the flash variant for lower latency and lower cost.
Prerequisites
- Install SDK in a virtual environment:
python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install dashscope
- Set
DASHSCOPE_API_KEY in your environment, or add dashscope_api_key to ~/.alibabacloud/credentials.
Normalized interface (video.generate_reference)
Request
prompt (string, required)reference_video (string | bytes, required)reference_image (string | bytes, optional)duration (number, optional)fps (number, optional)size (string, optional)seed (int, optional)
Response
video_url (string)task_id (string, when async)request_id (string)
Async handling
- Prefer async submission for production traffic.
- Poll task result with 15-20s intervals.
- Stop polling when
SUCCEEDED or terminal failure status is returned.
Local helper script
Prepare a normalized request JSON and validate response schema:
.venv/bin/python skills/ai/video/aliyun-wan-r2v/scripts/prepare_r2v_request.py \
--prompt "Generate a short montage with consistent character style" \
--reference-video "https://example.com/reference.mp4"
Output location
- Default output:
output/aliyun-wan-r2v/videos/
- Override base dir with
OUTPUT_DIR.
Workflow
- Confirm user intent, region, identifiers, and whether the operation is read-only or mutating.
- Run one minimal read-only query first to verify connectivity and permissions.
- Execute the target operation with explicit parameters and bounded scope.
- Verify results and save output/evidence files.
