## Use this model from an AI agent

Atlas Cloud ships three first-party integration surfaces. All three authenticate
with the same API key via the `ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY` environment variable.

### MCP server

The official MCP server (`atlascloud-mcp`) exposes this model to any
MCP-compatible host — Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Goose,
Claude Desktop. One-line install:

```bash
# Claude Code
claude mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

# OpenAI Codex CLI
codex mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

# Gemini CLI
gemini mcp add atlascloud -- npx -y atlascloud-mcp

export ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Then ask in plain English; the agent calls `atlas_generate_video` with `model: "minimax/hailuo-02/fast"`.
The server fetches each model's schema and validates parameters before submitting,
so invalid requests fail fast without spending credits.

### Agent Skills

`atlas-cloud-skills` is a portable skill package (API reference, code templates in
Python / Node.js / cURL, model IDs with pricing) for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and
12+ other agents:

```bash
npx skills add AtlasCloudAI/atlas-cloud-skills
export ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Skills docs: https://www.atlascloud.ai/docs/skills

### CLI

The `atlas` binary runs Atlas Cloud from a terminal or CI script. Async media jobs
are polled and downloaded automatically (use `--no-download` when a script only
needs the output URLs):

```bash
# Install (Homebrew, npm, or shell installer)
brew install AtlasCloudAI/tap/atlascloud
# npm install -g atlascloud-cli
# curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AtlasCloudAI/cli/main/install.sh | sh

atlas auth login
atlas generate video minimax/hailuo-02/fast -p "Your prompt here"
```

CLI docs: https://www.atlascloud.ai/docs/cli

## HTTP API reference

- **Submit endpoint (POST)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo` — start an async generation; returns a `prediction_id`
- **Poll endpoint (GET)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}` — poll this until the prediction finishes
- **Model ID**: `minimax/hailuo-02/fast`


## API Information

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "model": "minimax/hailuo-02/fast",
  "prompt": "The girl in the image begins performing a graceful ballet solo on a grand theater stage, she twirls and lifts one leg into an arabesque, soft spotlight follows her every move, cinematic lighting, slow camera pan from left to right, elegant and fluid motion",

MiniMax Hailuo 02 Fast

This is a fast version of Hailuo 02 that can generate videos in 6s and 10s at 512p resolution.

Hailuo 02 is a new AI video generation model, from Hailuo AI, created on MiniMax's evolving framework. It has been fine-tuned to deliver ultra-clear 1080P resolution and unprecedented responsiveness while even handling, the craziest of physics driven scenes.

Indeed, artists have discovered that for highly intricate scenarios, such as gymnastics, MiniMax Hailuo 02 is currently the only model globally capable of delivering such performance. We eagerly invite the community to explore and unlock even more creative possibilities.

Our journey began late last August when we informally launched a demo webpage showcasing an early version of our video generation model. To our surprise, it attracted significant attention and acclaim from talented creators worldwide. This pivotal moment led to the development of Hailuo Video 01, our AI native video generation product, which has since empowered creators to generate over 370 million videos globally.

Returning to our foundational principle of \"Intelligence with Everyone,\" our ambition is to equip global creators to fully unleash their imagination, elevate the quality of their video content, and lower the barriers to video creation. Crucially, we strive to achieve this without imposing prohibitive costs that would limit the widespread accessibility of this technology.

To this end, our team embarked on a quest to develop a more efficient video generation model architecture. This pursuit culminated in the core framework of MiniMax Hailuo 02, which we've named Noise-aware Compute Redistribution (NCR). In essence, the new architecture's central idea is as follows:
