MiniMax Video Generator

Generate videos using MiniMax by uploading start/end frames or describing scenes, then query status and download results.

Security Scan

The skill mostly does what it claims (generate/query/download videos) but it silently reads your ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json for an API key even though the registry metadata declared no required config or credentials — that's an incoherence you should be aware of before installing.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description match the code: scripts call a MiniMax API to generate, query, and download videos. However the registry metadata claimed no required config or credentials while both SKILL.md and all three scripts explicitly read an API key from ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json — the skill will not work without that key and the manifest failed to declare this requirement.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md and the scripts are narrowly scoped to (1) read a MiniMax apiKey from ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json, (2) POST to /v1/video_generation, GET to /v1/query/video_generation and /v1/files/retrieve, and (3) download a file to a local path. The scripts do not attempt to read other system files or call arbitrary endpoints, but they do read the user's OpenClaw config file (which may contain other provider entries) to extract the apiKey.

Install Mechanism

This is an instruction-only skill with included scripts and no install spec. Nothing will be downloaded or written to system locations by an automated installer; the scripts run locally when invoked.

Credentials

The skill requires an API key but the registry metadata lists no required env vars or config paths. Instead the code reads ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json to find minimax-cn.apiKey. This mismatch (undeclared credential/config dependency) is the main proportionality issue. The scripts only use a single provider key (minimax-cn) and do not explicitly exfiltrate other credentials, but they do parse your OpenClaw config file to obtain it.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill does not request permanent/always-on installation, does not modify other skills or system-wide settings, and does not persist new credentials. It simply reads the OpenClaw config and performs network calls when run.

What to consider before installing

Before installing or running this skill: (1) know that the scripts will read ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json to obtain a minimax-cn apiKey even though the registry metadata didn’t declare this — ensure that file contains only the key you intend to use (create a dedicated MiniMax key if possible). (2) Network activity: the scripts will send that API key in an Authorization: Bearer header to api.minimaxi.com and will download remote files (the download script follows redirects). Verify you trust the MiniMax endpoints and the source of any file URLs. (3) Review output paths before downloading to avoid overwriting important files. (4) If you want stricter control, set a dedicated config with only the MiniMax apiKey or modify the scripts to accept an explicit env var/API key rather than reading the shared OpenClaw config. (5) The skill’s manifest should have declared the config dependency — consider asking the author to update metadata and documentation for transparency.

MiniMax 视频生成技能

使用 MiniMax Hailuo 生成视频，支持首尾帧模式（首图→尾图）和文生视频模式。

功能

1. 首尾帧生成视频 - 上传首帧和尾帧图片，生成过渡视频
2. 文生视频 - 根据文本描述生成视频
3. 查询任务状态 - 查询视频生成进度
4. 下载视频 - 获取视频下载链接并下载到本地

前置准备

API Key 配置

API Key 存储在 ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json 中，路径为：

{
  "models": {
    "providers": {
      "minimax-cn": {
        "apiKey": "your-api-key-here",
        "baseUrl": "https://api.minimaxi.com/anthropic"
      }
    }
  }
}

脚本会自动从配置文件中读取 API Key。

使用方式

首尾帧模式生成视频

cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/minimax-video
node scripts/generate.js --mode fl2v \
  --first-frame "https://example.com/first.jpg" \
  --last-frame "https://example.com/last.jpg" \
  --prompt "A little girl grow up." \
  --model MiniMax-Hailuo-02 \
  --duration 6 \
  --resolution 1080P

文生视频模式

cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/minimax-video
node scripts/generate.js --mode t2v \
  --prompt "A cute cat playing with a ball of yarn" \
  --model MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3 \
  --duration 6 \
  --resolution 1080P

查询任务状态

node scripts/query.js --task-id <task_id>

下载视频

node scripts/download.js --file-id <file_id> --output ./output.mp4
