  version: '2026-07-20'
  description: >-
    VidJutsu is a video API built for agents to operate directly. Your agent can
    clone viral trending skits now: stage a trending clip with
    /v1/videos/download/tiktok or /v1/videos/download/instagram, check it for
    cloneability, generate a character and a clean starting frame, then render
    the clone. The pipeline runs end to end in about 5 minutes, measured. Kling
    motion control is the default video model; Seedance is the alternate. Clone
    video output is 480p 9:16.
