AI picture book generate

Generate static or dynamic picture book videos using Baidu AI

Security Scan

The skill's code, instructions, and required credential (BAIDU_API_KEY) align with its stated purpose of creating and polling Baidu AI picture-book tasks; nothing in the files indicates unrelated access or exfiltration.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description (generate picture-book videos using Baidu AI) match the required binary (python3), the single required env var (BAIDU_API_KEY), and the scripts that call Baidu endpoints. The primary credential is the service API key, which is proportional for this purpose.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md describes creating tasks, polling, and querying results and the provided scripts implement exactly that against qianfan.baidubce.com. Minor inconsistencies: SKILL.md lists the query endpoint as GET but the scripts use POST; SKILL.md does not document the Python 'requests' dependency required by the scripts.

Install Mechanism

No install spec (instruction-only) and included scripts are simple Python clients. No downloads or archive extraction. Note: scripts rely on the third-party 'requests' library but the skill doesn't declare how to install Python dependencies.

Credentials

Only BAIDU_API_KEY is required and it is used directly as a Bearer token for the Baidu endpoints. No other credentials or unrelated environment variables or config paths are requested or accessed.

Persistence & Privilege

always:false (no forced always-on). The skill does not attempt to modify other skills or system-wide agent settings; it only contains scripts executed by the user/agent on demand.

Assessment

This skill appears to do what it says: it posts tasks and polls results from Baidu's qianfan API and requires a BAIDU_API_KEY. Before installing or running, ensure you: (1) trust the skill source (there is no homepage), (2) provide a Baidu API key with minimal privileges you’re comfortable exposing to this code, (3) have python3 and the 'requests' package installed (the scripts will fail otherwise), and (4) review the scripts yourself if you are concerned—there is no hidden network activity beyond calls to qianfan.baidubce.com. The SKILL.md has a small mismatch (GET vs POST for query) but that is an implementation/documentation inconsistency rather than a security issue.

AI Picture Book

Generate picture book videos from stories or descriptions.

Workflow

1. Create Task: Submit story + type → get task ID
2. Poll Status: Query every 5-10s until completion
3. Get Results: Retrieve video URLs when status = 2

Book Types

Type	Method	Description
Static	9	Static picture book
Dynamic	10	Dynamic picture book

Required: User must specify type (static/9 or dynamic/10). If not provided, ask them to choose.

Status Codes

Code	Status	Action
0, 1, 3	In Progress	Continue polling
2	Completed	Return results
Other	Failed	Show error

APIs

Create Task

Endpoint: POST /v2/tools/ai_picture_book/task_create

Parameters:

• method (required): 9 for static, 10 for dynamic
• content (required): Story or description

Example:

python3 scripts/ai_picture_book_task_create.py 9 "A brave cat explores the world."

Response:

{ "task_id": "uuid-string" }

Query Task

Endpoint: GET /v2/tools/ai_picture_book/query

Parameters:

• task_id (required): Task ID from create endpoint

Example:

python3 scripts/ai_picture_book_task_query.py "task-id-here"

Response (Completed):

{
  "status": 2,
  "video_bos_url": "https://...",
}

Polling Strategy

Auto Polling (Recommended)

python3 scripts/ai_picture_book_poll.py <task_id> [max_attempts] [interval_seconds]

Examples:

# Default: 20 attempts, 5s intervals
python3 scripts/ai_picture_book_poll.py "task-id-here"

# Custom: 30 attempts, 10s intervals
python3 scripts/ai_picture_book_poll.py "task-id-here" 30 10

Manual Polling

1. Create task → store task_id
2. Query every 5-10s until status = 2
3. Timeout after 2-3 minutes

Error Handling

• Invalid content: "Content cannot be empty"
• Invalid type: "Invalid type. Use 9 (static) or 10 (dynamic)"
• Processing error: "Failed to generate picture book"
• Timeout: "Task timed out. Try again later"
