What it does

Wan Video is an agent skill from refly-ai/refly-skills. Generate AI videos using Alibaba Wan 2.6 video models. Use when you need to: (1) create videos from text descriptions, (2) animate static images into videos, or (3) transform and enhance existing videos with AI style transfer.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `README.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering AI video generation. The repository describes itself as: Refly skills repository.

When your agent uses it

  • Create videos from text descriptions
  • Animate static images into videos
  • Transform and enhance existing videos with AI style transfer

Example prompts

  • “/wan-video”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. (Optional): Upload Files for Image/Video-to-Video Modes
  2. Run the Skill and Get Run ID
  3. Open Workflow in Browser and Wait for Completion
  4. Download and Show Result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5a546d2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • jq

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • refly.ai

    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

Wan Video loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 191 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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 191 words (~1,019 tokens).

“Generate AI videos using Alibaba Wan 2.6 video models. Use when you need to: (1) create videos from text descriptions, (2) animate static images into videos, or (3) transform and enhance existing videos with AI style transfer.”
