Seedance2 Api

Takes you from concept to finished AI video in one workflow. You brainstorm ideas, build a storyboard through a five-dimensional dive (content, visuals, camera, motion, audio), then it generates reference images with Seedream 4.5 and submits everything to Seedance 2.0 for video generation. Videos take about 10 minutes to render and you get flexible output options: 16:9, 9:16, square, ultrawide, plus duration control from 4 to 15 seconds. Two generation modes give you either omni reference (throw in up to 9 images, 3 videos, 3 audio files) or keyframe-based first/last frame control. Gracefully falls back to standalone Python if the MCP service is down, which is smart given how flaky external APIs can be.

Seedance 2.0 Storyboard & Video Generation

End-to-end workflow from concept to final video: Storyboard → Reference images → Submit video task → Get results.

Step 0: Determine Execution Mode (MCP or Script)

Check MCP availability first:

Check xskill-ai MCP service status (read mcps/user-xskill-ai/STATUS.md)
If MCP is available → use submit_task / get_task and other MCP tools
If MCP is unavailable or returns errors → switch to Script Mode

Script mode prerequisites:

Verify XSKILL_API_KEY environment variable is set (run echo $XSKILL_API_KEY | head -c 10)
If not set, prompt the user:
```
export XSKILL_API_KEY=sk-your-api-key
```
Get your API Key: https://www.xskill.ai/#/v2/api-keys
Verify requests is installed (pip install requests)

Script path: Located under this skill's directory at scripts/seedance_api.py:

# Find via Glob tool
glob: .cursor/skills/seedance2-api/scripts/seedance_api.py

In the following steps, each API call provides both MCP method and Script method. Choose one based on the Step 0 result.

Step 1: Understand the User's Idea
