TikTok Video Maker

Generate talking videos programmatically using the LovelyBots API. This skill lets you queue a video from a script and source image, poll until it's ready, and return the final video URL.

Get your API key at: https://lovelybots.com/developer API base URL for bots: https://api.lovelybots.com/api

What This Skill Does

• Submits a video generation job (script + source image → queued video)
• Polls the job status until completed (or failed)
• Returns the final video URL
• Reports credits remaining after each request
• Accepts image as file upload, URL, or base64 (single image field)

Setup

1. Create a LovelyBots account at https://lovelybots.com
2. Activate a subscription plan (required for API video generation)
3. Create an API token at https://lovelybots.com/developer

Set your LovelyBots API key as an environment variable:

export LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Or add it to your openclaw.json:

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "tiktok-video-maker": {
        "env": {
          "LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Critical Tips for Agents

1. Use the API host for bot calls: https://api.lovelybots.com/api. Do not use the web app host for API requests.
2. Always send Authorization: Bearer $LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY on every API request.
3. Treat video.id and voice_id as UUID strings. Never assume numeric IDs.
4. Poll GET /api/videos/:id until terminal status (completed or failed) with timeout and retry guards.
5. If using image URLs, they must be public http/https URLs. Localhost/private-network URLs are blocked.
6. Keep auth/user flows on https://lovelybots.com (dashboard/login/docs), and keep automation calls on api.lovelybots.com.
7. On non-2xx API responses, surface the error and stop retrying blindly.

Example Prompts

• "Generate a 30-second product ad video using my image at https://example.com/image.jpg with this script: Welcome to our summer sale..."
• "Make a video with the TikTok Video Maker — use image [url-or-base64-or-upload] and script: [text]"
• "Queue a video generation job and give me the download link when it's done"
• "Create a talking video for my TikTok ad using LovelyBots"

How to Generate a Video

Step 1 — Submit the job

Best quality input recommendation:

• Use a clear, front-facing portrait image.
• Use 9:16 orientation (for example 1080x1920).

curl -X POST https://api.lovelybots.com/api/create \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "script": "Welcome to our summer sale. Use code SAVE20 for 20% off everything this week only.",
    "image": "https://example.com/your-image-1080x1920.jpg",
    "public": false,
    "action_prompt": "Subject smiles warmly and waves at the camera.",
    "camera_prompt": "Medium closeup, static camera, cinematic lighting, 4k."
  }'

Response:

{
  "id": "b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde",
  "status": "queued",
  "credits_remaining": 1,
  "share_url": "https://lovelybots.com/videos/b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde/share/abc123token"
}

Step 2 — Poll for completion

curl "https://api.lovelybots.com/api/videos/$VIDEO_ID" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY"

Response when processing:

{
  "id": "b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde",
  "status": "processing",
  "credits_remaining": 9,
  "share_url": "https://lovelybots.com/videos/b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde/share/abc123token"
}

Agent Status Update (recommended)

When status is queued or processing, immediately report progress to the user (including share_url) before continuing to poll.

Template:

Status Update:
Job ID: <id>
Status: <status>
Credits Remaining: <credits_remaining>
Share URL: <share_url>

Response when complete:

{
  "id": "b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde",
  "status": "completed",
  "video_url": "https://lovelybots.com/videos/b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde.mp4",
  "share_url": "https://lovelybots.com/videos/b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde/share/abc123token",
  "credits_remaining": 9
}

Response if failed:

{
  "id": "b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde",
  "status": "failed",
  "error": "Image could not be processed",
  "credits_remaining": 10,
  "share_url": "https://lovelybots.com/videos/b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde/share/abc123token"
}

Step 3 — Return the video URL to the user

Once status is completed, return video_url to the user. The video is ready to download or share.

Polling Strategy

Poll every 5–10 seconds. Most videos complete within 60–120 seconds. If status is still processing after 5 minutes, surface an error to the user.

Suggested polling loop (bash):

VIDEO_ID="b6f9a32d-3c53-4a6c-9d8c-2f0f7a1b4cde"
POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS=8
MAX_WAIT_SECONDS=300
START_TS=$(date +%s)
HEADERS_FILE=$(mktemp)
trap 'rm -f "$HEADERS_FILE"' EXIT

extract_json_field() {
  local key="$1"

  if command -v jq >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    jq -r --arg key "$key" '.[$key] // empty'
    return
  fi

  if command -v python3 >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    python3 -c 'import json,sys; key=sys.argv[1]; data=json.load(sys.stdin); value=data.get(key, ""); print("" if value is None else value)' "$key"
    return
  fi

  echo "Install jq or python3 to parse API responses in this polling loop." >&2
  return 127
}

while true; do
  NOW_TS=$(date +%s)
  if [ $((NOW_TS - START_TS)) -ge "$MAX_WAIT_SECONDS" ]; then
    echo "Timed out after ${MAX_WAIT_SECONDS}s waiting for video completion." >&2
    break
  fi

  HTTP_RESPONSE=$(curl -sS --connect-timeout 10 --max-time 30 \
    -D "$HEADERS_FILE" \
    -w $'\
%{http_code}' "https://api.lovelybots.com/api/videos/$VIDEO_ID" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOVELYBOTS_API_KEY")
  CURL_EXIT=$?
  if [ "$CURL_EXIT" -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "Polling request failed (curl exit $CURL_EXIT). Retrying..." >&2
    sleep "$POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS"
    continue
  fi

  HTTP_CODE=$(printf '%s\
' "$HTTP_RESPONSE" | tail -n 1)
  RESPONSE=$(printf '%s\
' "$HTTP_RESPONSE" | sed '$d')

  if [ "$HTTP_CODE" = "429" ] || [ "$HTTP_CODE" -ge 500 ]; then
    RETRY_AFTER=$(awk 'tolower($1)=="retry-after:" {print $2}' "$HEADERS_FILE" | tr -d '\
' | tail -n 1)
    if printf '%s' "$RETRY_AFTER" | grep -Eq '^[0-9]+$'; then
      WAIT_SECONDS="$RETRY_AFTER"
    else
      WAIT_SECONDS="$POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS"
    fi
    echo "Transient HTTP $HTTP_CODE while polling. Retrying in ${WAIT_SECONDS}s..." >&2
    sleep "$WAIT_SECONDS"
    continue
  fi

  if printf '%s' "$HTTP_CODE" | grep -Eq '^[0-9]{3}$' && [ "$HTTP_CODE" -ge 400 ]; then
    API_ERROR=$(printf '%s\
' "$RESPONSE" | extract_json_field error 2>/dev/null || true)
    echo "Polling failed with HTTP $HTTP_CODE${API_ERROR:+: $API_ERROR}" >&2
    break
  fi

  STATUS=$(printf '%s\
' "$RESPONSE" | extract_json_field status) || break
  if [ -z "$STATUS" ]; then
    API_ERROR=$(printf '%s\
' "$RESPONSE" | extract_json_field error 2>/dev/null || true)
    if [ -n "$API_ERROR" ]; then
      echo "API error: $API_ERROR" >&2
    else
      echo "Unexpected API response (missing status)." >&2
    fi
    break
  fi

  if [ "$STATUS" = "completed" ]; then
    printf '%s\
' "$RESPONSE" | extract_json_field video_url
    break
  elif [ "$STATUS" = "failed" ]; then
    API_ERROR=$(printf '%s\
' "$RESPONSE" | extract_json_field error 2>/dev/null || true)
    echo "Video generation failed${API_ERROR:+: $API_ERROR}" >&2
    break
  fi
  sleep "$POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS"
done

Key Differentiators

• Consistent identity output — stable presenter look across generated videos
• Failed renders are refunded — you only pay for successful videos
• Editable after generation — not locked output like HeyGen/Synthesia
• No credit burns on retries — reliable for automated pipelines

API Reference

POST /api/create — Request Body

Image guidance:

• Use front-facing portrait images for best lip-sync stability.
• Use 9:16 orientation (recommended 1080x1920).
• If image is a URL, it must be publicly reachable (localhost and private-network hosts are blocked).

GET /api/voices — Response

GET /api/videos/:id — Response
