What it does

Generate is an agent skill from Blotato-Inc/blotato-skills. Generate faceless video content cheaply and consistently. Draft a still on a cheap model, run a pre-animate quality check, then animate the approved still through kie.ai, always routing to the lowest cost model. Enforces a running spend cap with a cost ledger, applies reusable style and character presets so a whole channel stays consistent, and outputs a publish-ready clip that hands off to Blotato for scheduling. Triggers on /generate, generate image, generate video, make a POV clip, animate this.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 21 other files (for example `README.md`, `animate.sh` and `balance.sh`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Image generation and AI video generation. It works with Seedance and Google Gemini. The repository describes itself as: Free Blotato Claude skills — plugin marketplace. Install: /plugin marketplace add Blotato-Inc/blotato-skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Make a POV clip
  • Tasks that involve Image generation
  • Tasks that involve AI video generation

Example prompts

  • “/generate”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Default to the LOWEST COST provider that runs the model well. kie.ai first.
  2. If the cheapest route lacks the model, fails auth, or errors, fall back to fal.ai, then WaveSpeed AI.
  3. Never hide a provider swap. Say which route ran and why.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5d6f76f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Bash
    • Glob

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • claude

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Generate loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 128 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,259 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~128
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,259 words (~2,315 tokens).

“Make faceless video content for pennies, keep a channel visually consistent, and never blow the budget. Draft a cheap still, check it before you spend on animation, then animate only the still you approve. Output lands publish-ready.”
