What it does

T8 Creative DNA Prompt Library collects short AI-video techniques for the MiniMax H3 and Seedance 2.0 models. It rests on the Creative DNA idea: each case records a reusable creative mechanism, with no technical tutorials, model comparisons or keyword piles. The case catalog keeps the mechanism, the creator, the platform and a link to the original post, with lightweight GIF previews beside them. The installable part sits in the skills/ folder, which holds more than 280 skills. Each carries one mechanism into the agent and points back to the same case and source. The write-seedance-video-prompts skill writes prompts specifically for Seedance 2.0 from text, images, video and audio. It numbers assets by type (图片N, 视频N, 音频N), gives each a single role, builds an action chain and checks that the clip fits 4–15 seconds. Dialogue goes in {…}, sound in <…>, music in (…) and visible text in 【…】. The output is an asset-role map, the final prompt and feasibility warnings. A separate section indexes nine skills from the official MiniMax-AI/MiniMax-H3 repository with pinned commits and hashes, each with a companion direct-seedance-* skill for Seedance 2.0. Two more skills come from users and are labeled unofficial. An Electron desktop app for browsing cases comes with the set.

Who it is for. For people who make short clips in MiniMax H3 and Seedance 2.0 and want to adopt proven creative mechanisms without writing a prompt from scratch.

Good fit when

  • You need a Seedance 2.0 prompt from text and image, video or audio references, with clear asset roles and an action chain
  • You want to check whether an idea is feasible before spending paid generations
  • You want a ready mechanism, such as a gradual character reveal or an object carried between media, applied to your own plot
  • For H3 you want the MiniMax repository's official skills pinned with previews, and companion skills for Seedance
  • You need to search cases by mechanism in two languages in a desktop viewer with favorites and comparison

Not a fit when

  • You need the video itself: the skills write prompts and call no paid model unless you ask separately
  • You want technical guides, model comparisons or keyword lists: the library leaves them out
  • You use another video model: the structure targets H3 and Seedance 2.0, and H3 fields are not carried into Seedance prompts
  • You have one simple task and no need for a catalog: 284 skills in the folder is a lot, and write-seedance-video-prompts alone may be enough

Example request

Use write-seedance-video-prompts to build an 8-second Seedance 2.0 prompt from my product photo: a smooth orbit and quiet sound

Limitations

Skills install by hand: clone the repository and move the folder of the skill you want from skills/ into your agent's skills directory, with its references and assets subfolders. There is no single install command. The project description and much of the material are in Chinese and English.

The catalog links to other creators' posts and shows previews of their clips, and each case keeps the creator, the platform and the source. The rights to the source videos belong to their authors, and the repository is MIT for code and CC BY 4.0 for content. Skills from the official MiniMax repository are kept as references: a pinned commit, hashes and a link, with the text taken from upstream. The full videos for the desktop version ship in the release as three separate volumes.

How to disable. Delete this repository's skill folders from your agent's skills directory, for example .agents/skills/ in a project. The desktop app is removed like any program, and the cloned repository and downloaded video volumes can be erased from disk.

FAQ

How do I install a Seedance 2.0 skill from this library?

Clone the repository and copy the skills/write-seedance-video-prompts folder with its references into your agent's skills directory, for example .agents/skills/ for Codex.

How do the direct-seedance skills differ from MiniMax's official ones?

Nine official skills are indexed from the MiniMax-AI/MiniMax-H3 repository by a pinned commit and written for H3. For each, the library's author wrote a companion direct-seedance-* skill for Seedance 2.0 with a different prompt grammar.

What clip length does write-seedance-video-prompts check?

It requires a clip to fit 4 to 15 seconds. It forbids exact per-shot timestamps but allows an overall duration. For complex plots the prompt splits into consecutive shots, "镜头1", "镜头2".

What are the unofficial skills in the catalog?

Two user-contributed skills, direct-street-interview-video and stage-startle-to-truce-encounter. They are inspired by supplied clips and labeled unofficial. Each went through video decoding, duration verification and mechanism analysis and is built for both models.

Can I browse the cases without installing skills?

Yes. The catalog/ folder holds cases with previews and source links, and the Electron desktop app from the release adds search, filters, favorites, collections and comparison. The full videos ship in three volumes that extract into one directory.

description: Write model-native Seedance 2.0 video prompts from text, images, video, or audio references. Use for text/image generation, multimodal reference, video editing, extension, track fill, or combined tasks that need stable subjects, explicit asset roles, coherent event order, camera, sound, visible text, and a 4–15 second feasibility check.

# Write Seedance Video Prompts

Create a filmable Seedance 2.0 prompt without leaking MiniMax H3 field names or timing grammar. This is a T8-authored companion to the MiniMax repository-bundled `h3-prompt-writing` Skill; use the upstream Skill itself when the target is H3.

## Intake

Confirm only missing information:

- overall duration from 4 through 15 seconds and aspect ratio;
- generation intent: new generation, reference, edit, extension, track fill, or a combination;
- every supplied asset and its narrow role;
- recurring subject bindings, visible action, scene state, camera priority, sound, dialogue, and requested visible copy;
- whether the idea is one simple event or a multi-event sequence.

Do not treat a research video as a generation input. Do not fabricate references, text, dialogue, brands, or sound.

## Build the prompt

1. Assign consecutive `图片N`, `视频N`, and `音频N` labels by modality.
2. State one purpose for every declared asset. Bind ambiguous subjects as `角色A@图片1` or equivalent.
3. Write a cause-and-effect action chain. Include body/object part, direction, speed, force, inertia, contact, and visible consequence where relevant.
4. Prefer one primary camera behavior per shot. Separate genuinely conflicting moves with a cut.
5. Use one natural paragraph for a simple event. Use consecutive `镜头1`, `镜头2`, and so on for complex content.
6. Put dialogue in `{...}`, physical/designed sound in `<...>`, music in `(...)`, and requested visible copy in `【...】`.
7. End with only the constraints that protect identity, geometry, medium, contact, copy, or continuity.

Read `references/template.md` for the task matrix, output skeleton, and final audit.

## Hard rules

- Never add exact per-shot timestamps such as `0–3秒` or “at 3 seconds.” Overall duration is allowed.
- Never emit H3 fields, `<Picture N>/<Video N>`, `[Shot N]`, `(S1)`, timestamp alignment, or H3 retention syntax.
- For edit/extension tasks, name the target as `视频N`, not merely “reference video.”
- For track fill, name two or three videos in playback order.
- Keep every explicit asset reference resolvable and every declared asset purposeful.
- Do not call a paid model, upload media, or import anything into ComfyUI unless the user separately requests that action.

## Deliver

Return the task choice, asset-role map when assets exist, the final Seedance prompt, and short feasibility warnings. Keep the prompt itself clean enough to paste directly into Seedance 2.0.
