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 ATTENTION*—must 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_KEYmust be set; Node 18+. Prefer publichttpsimage URLs; if the assembledscripts/video_gen.jssupports 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
httpsimage URLs. If the assembledscripts/video_gen.jssupports 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.jsbefore 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 abstraction—luxury 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
- Text / image / multi-image (SEEDANCE_2_0, ≤3).
- Collect candidate list + final answer (or you propose both for approval).
- Expand → validate → confirm →
wait. [Video](url).

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.
