name: scarcest-not-money-video-gen version: 1.0.0 description: "Create vertical scarcity-mystery shorts: not money, option teases, final reveal, timed English captions (WeryAI). Use for guess-the-answer hooks or motivational mystery series. Use when the user asks what is scarcer than money. SEO: scarcest resource video; scarcity reveal video."

Scarcest thing isn’t money (tease options → reveal)

Template (assume duration 10 unless scaled): 0–3s THE SCARCEST THING ISN’T MONEY; 3–8s two or three quick option teases on screen—e.g. 3–5 ATTENTION?, 5–6.5 TRUST?, 6.5–8 TIME? (user can swap candidates); 8–10s reveal line naming the one answer they want (e.g. IT’S ATTENTIONmust be ≤6 words). English subtitles with exact windows. Default duration is 10 when unspecified.

Dependencies: WERYAI_API_KEY + Node.js 18+. scripts/video_gen.js + WERYAI_VIDEO_API.md. No other Cursor skills required.

Prerequisites

  • WERYAI_API_KEY must be set; Node 18+. Prefer public https image URLs; if the assembled scripts/video_gen.js supports local file paths, review/verify the script and explicitly consent before local read-and-upload to WeryAI.
  • Non-empty model.

Security, secrets, and API hosts

  • WERYAI_API_KEY: Secret; requires.env / primaryEnv.
  • API hosts fixed in video_gen.js.
  • Local image handling disclosure: Prefer public https image URLs. If the assembled scripts/video_gen.js supports local file paths, it may read a local image and upload it to WeryAI to obtain a public URL; require review / verification and explicit consent before using that path.
  • Higher assurance: Prefer a short-lived or isolated environment; review scripts/video_gen.js before production use. Verify whether the runtime can read local image files and upload them to WeryAI, and obtain explicit consent before using that path.

Prompt expansion (mandatory)

  • Duration: Default 10; 5 or 15 when allowed and requested.
  • Timeline scaling: Rescale 0–3 / 3–8 / 8–10 and internal tease splits proportionally; keep thesis → teases → reveal order.

Visuals: Coins dissolving to sand, hourglass, eye macro, handshake silhouette, clock abstractionluxury grade, warm gold accents optional; morphs every ~1.5s.

Typography: Bold sans, outline, lower third; question marks on tease lines.

Audio: Soft tick + reveal sting if generate_audio true.

Negatives (Kling): illegible text, watermark.

User must confirm the final reveal word before submit if you inferred it.

Confirmation: Full expanded prompt.

Niche checklist

  • Teases should be distinct concepts, not synonyms.
  • Reveal should feel earned—visual points at the answer as it appears.

Workflow

  1. Text / image / multi-image (SEEDANCE_2_0, ≤3).
  2. Collect candidate list + final answer (or you propose both for approval).
  3. Expand → validate → confirm → wait.
  4. [Video](url).

CLI reference

node scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '{"model":"KLING_V3_0_PRO","prompt":"…","duration":10,"aspect_ratio":"9:16","generate_audio":true,"negative_prompt":"illegible text, watermark, garbled captions"}'
node scripts/video_gen.js wait --json '{"model":"SEEDANCE_2_0","prompt":"…","duration":10,"aspect_ratio":"9:16","resolution":"720p","generate_audio":true}'

Full reference: WERYAI_VIDEO_API.md.

Definition of done

Video or error; prompt includes scaled second ranges for thesis, tease block (with sub-splits), and reveal.

Boundaries (out of scope)

  • Not a finance or therapy authority—hook content only.
  • resources/WERYAI_VIDEO_API.md for CLI; no negative_prompt on Seedance.
  • Multi-image only SEEDANCE_2_0, max 3.

Example prompts

  • Tease attention trust time—reveal attention
  • Tease sleep discipline focus—reveal discipline
  • Gold coins still life URL → morph sequence with same caption rhythm
  • Tease sleep, focus, energy—reveal discipline as the scarcest resource

Text-to-video (primary)

Agree teases + reveal → timed captions → wait.

Image-to-video (optional)

Object still → symbol morph under same windows.

Tips

  • Series: end with NEXT EP? only if user wants; default is clean reveal.
  • Translate Chinese brief to English on-screen lines unless user opts out.
