Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API)

What this skill does

Generate and stitch short videos via Google Veo 3.x using the Gemini API (google-genai). Use when you need to create video clips from prompts (ads, UGC-style clips, product demos) and want a reproducible CLI workflow (generate, poll, download MP4, optionally stitch multiple segments).

Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API) is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API)

The easiest path is via the OpenClaw Easy desktop app — one click, no terminal required:

1. Download OpenClaw Easy for macOS or Windows (free, one-click installer, ~30 seconds).
2. Open the in-app Skills panel.
3. Search for veo3-video-gen and click Install.
4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API) with a single command:

openclaw skills add veo3-video-gen

This pulls veo3-video-gen from ClawHub and installs it into ~/.openclaw/skills/veo3-video-gen/. Restart the OpenClaw gateway afterwards so the new skill is discovered.

How to use Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API)

Once installed, Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API) activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.

Turning video into a finished short

Veo 3 Video Gen (Gemini API) works with video. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — reframes to vertical, cleans the audio, cuts dead air, burns animated captions, and exports a version sized for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.

It runs as an MCP server, so an OpenClaw agent can drive it from the same chat you already use: ask for a short, and the render comes back finished. See how to connect a video pipeline to your agent.

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab veo3-video-gen-0.1.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/veo3-video-gen/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
