Flow
- Parse
$ARGUMENTS. A start image → image-to-video.
- Settings (ask, or defaults):
- Model: default
2.6-t2v. Use 3.0 for the best quality / 4K / multi-shot; 2.1-pro-i2v for first→last-frame control.
- Duration: 5 or 10s (Kling 3.0: 3–15s). The script snaps to allowed values.
- Aspect ratio:
16:9 (default), 9:16, 1:1.
- Audio:
--audio for native sound (2.6 / 3.0).
- 3.0 quality mode:
--mode std|pro|4K (default pro).
- 2.1 tuning:
--cfg-scale 0.5 and --negative-prompt "...".
- Craft the prompt (≤1000 chars for 2.6, ≤5000 for 2.1). Show before generating.
- Generate:
python3 ~/.claude/skills/kie-kling-video/generate.py "<prompt>" \
--model 2.6-t2v --duration 5 --aspect-ratio 16:9 [--audio] \
[--image <url-or-path>] [--last-frame <url-or-path>] \
[--mode pro] [--cfg-scale 0.5] [--negative-prompt "..."] \
--slug <slug>
- Present: output →
~/videos/kling/<date>-<slug>/. Offer a longer clip, different model, or audio.
Notes
- Kling is a strong, cost-effective image-to-video workhorse — good default for animating a still.
- Local input images are auto-uploaded.
- Default
9:16 for Shorts/Reels/TikTok.
