Preferred Grok Tool Flow

}
Image-to-video example:
{
"prompt": "Animate this image with a slow camera push-in",
"image_url": "https://example.com/start-frame.jpg"
}
Reference-image example:
{
"prompt": "Create a short cinematic shot using these reference images for style consistency",
"reference_image_urls": [
"https://example.com/reference-1.jpg",
"https://example.com/reference-2.jpg"
]
}
Options
prompt: required video prompt.image_url: optional starting image for image-to-video.reference_image_urls: optional reference images, when supported by the tool schema.
Return generated video artifact paths, URLs, or IDs exactly as provided by the tool.
