About alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v
A reference-to-video skill using Alibaba Cloud Model Studio Wan R2V, for users generating video from reference footage and optionally an image. It provides a normalized request schema, a request-preparation script, and guidance for polling asynchronous tasks.
Key features
- 01Generates video from reference footage
- 02Optional reference image input
- 03Duration, frame rate, size, and seed parameters
- 04Prepares request JSON and validates response schema
- 05Async task polling workflow
Use cases
- 01Create a short clip based on reference footage
- 02Guide video generation with a reference image
- 03Prepare and track a long-running video task
Install
Copy the command and run it in a terminal.
npx skills add https:/ / github.com/ cinience/ alicloud-skills --skill alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2vAfter installing, type/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2vin Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

Validation
mkdir -p output/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v
python -m py_compile skills/ai/video/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/scripts/prepare_r2v_request.py && echo "py_compile_ok" > output/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/validate.txt
Pass criteria: command exits 0 and output/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/validate.txt is generated.
Output And Evidence
- Save reference input metadata, request payloads, and task outputs in
output/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/. - Keep at least one polling result snapshot.
Use Wan R2V for reference-to-video generation. This is different from i2v (single image to video).
Critical model names
Use one of these exact model strings:
wan2.6-r2v-flashwan2.6-r2v
Newer official releases may prefer the flash variant for lower latency and lower cost.
Prerequisites
- Install SDK in a virtual environment:
python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install dashscope
- Set
DASHSCOPE_API_KEYin your environment, or adddashscope_api_keyto~/.alibabacloud/credentials.
Normalized interface (video.generate_reference)
Request
prompt(string, required)reference_video(string | bytes, required)reference_image(string | bytes, optional)duration(number, optional)fps(number, optional)size(string, optional)seed(int, optional)
Response
video_url(string)task_id(string, when async)request_id(string)
Async handling
- Prefer async submission for production traffic.
- Poll task result with 15-20s intervals.
- Stop polling when
SUCCEEDEDor terminal failure status is returned.
Local helper script
Prepare a normalized request JSON and validate response schema:
.venv/bin/python skills/ai/video/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/scripts/prepare_r2v_request.py \
--prompt "Generate a short montage with consistent character style" \
--reference-video "https://example.com/reference.mp4"
Output location
- Default output:
output/alicloud-ai-video-wan-r2v/videos/ - Override base dir with
OUTPUT_DIR.
Workflow
- Confirm user intent, region, identifiers, and whether the operation is read-only or mutating.
- Run one minimal read-only query first to verify connectivity and permissions.
- Execute the target operation with explicit parameters and bounded scope.
- Verify results and save output/evidence files.
