What your agent can do

Here's what your agent runs when you ask it for something. You talk to your agent in plain words; it turns your request into Reela CLI commands.

Make a video

  • "Make a 30-second portrait video about our new app." — The agent previews first, then submits the same command without --dry-run:
reela create "A 30-second video about our new app" --visual ai-video --layout portrait --duration 30 --dry-run
reela create "A 30-second video about our new app" --visual ai-video --layout portrait --duration 30
  • "Use this brief." — reela create --prompt-file brief.txt --visual ai-video --dry-run
  • "Animate this photo." — reela create "..." --visual image-video --file original-image:photo.png --dry-run
  • "Edit my footage." — --visual original-clip --file video-source:clip.mp4, or --visual original-sync --file video-audio:clip.mp4 to keep its sound.
  • "Make a music video from my song." — add --file background-music:track.mp3. Reela cuts the video to the song with no voice-over; the song needs its lyrics. For background music under narration, the agent describes the music in the prompt instead.
  • "Make a music video." — add --music-video.
  • "Keep these videos together." — reuse the same --session "<title>".

Choose quality

  • "What quality levels can I use?" — reela tiers list
  • "Make it at the highest quality." — add --tier "<tier-label>", copying the full label from reela tiers list.

Use a presenter

  • "Put an avatar in it." — reela avatar list, then reela create "..." --visual avatar --avatar <avatar-id> --dry-run

Check and download

  • "Is it done yet?" — reela tasks get <id>
  • "What's still in progress?" — reela tasks list --status processing
  • "Send me the file." — reela tasks download <id>, or reela tasks download <id> --out-dir <folder>

Apply a brand kit

  • "Add our brand to it." — reela brand list, then reela brand apply <brand-id> --task <task-id>
  • "Get the branded version." — reela tasks versions <task-id> --origin brand, then reela tasks download <task-id> --video <video-id>

Account

  • "Is everything set up?" — reela status checks your account and delivery status.
  • "What will this cost?" — run the reela create command with --dry-run; the result includes credits_cost and quota_after.
  • "Which account am I using?" — reela whoami

Agents add --output json when they need to read results. Submitting without --dry-run can use credits. See reela create and reela tasks.
