## 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: "alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move"`.
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 alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move -p "Your prompt here"
```

## 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**: `alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move`


## API Information

This model can be used via our HTTP API or more conveniently via our client libraries.
See the input and output schema below, as well as the usage examples.


### Input Schema

The API accepts the following input parameters:

- **`model`** (`string`, _required_):
  model name
  - Default: `"alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move"`

- **`image`** (`string`, _required_):
  The image Containing the character to animate with movements from the input video. Format: JPG, JPEG, PNG, BMP, WEBP. Dimensions: Image width and height must both be within the range of 200 to 4096 pixels, with an aspect ratio between 1: 3 and 3:1. File size: No more than 5 MB. Content: The image should contain only one person, facing the camera directly, with the face fully visible and unobstructed. The person should occupy a moderate portion of the frame—neither too large nor too small.

- **`video`** (`string`, _required_):
  The video for generating the output. Recommendation: Increasing the resolution and frame rate of the reference video can effectively improve the quality of the generated output. Format: MP4, AVI, MOV. Duration: 2–30 seconds. Dimensions: Video width and height must both be within the range of 200 to 2048 pixels, with an aspect ratio between 1:3 and 3:1. File size: No more than 200 MB. Content: The video should contain only one person, facing the camera directly, with the face fully visible and unobstructed. The person should occupy a moderate portion of the frame—neither too large nor too small.

- **`mode`** (`string`, _required_):
  wan-std: Standard mode with faster generation speed and higher cost-effectiveness, suitable for quick previews and basic animation scenarios. wan-pro: Professional mode offering smoother animation and better overall results, though processing time and cost will increase accordingly.
  - Default: `"wan-pro"`
  - Options: "wan-std", "wan-pro"



**Required Parameters Example**:

```json
{
  "model": "alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move",
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "mode": "wan-pro"
}
```


**Full Example**:

```json
{
  "model": "alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move",
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "mode": "wan-pro"
}
```


### Output Schema

The API returns the following output format:


- **`created_at`** (`string`, _optional_):
  ISO timestamp of when the request was created (e.g., “2023-04-01T12:34:56.789Z”).

- **`id`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Unique identifier for the prediction, the ID of the prediction to get.

- **`model`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Model ID used for the prediction.

- **`outputs`** (`array[string]`, _optional_):
  Array of URLs to the generated content (empty when status is not completed).

- **`status`** (`string`, _optional_):
  Status of the task: created, processing, completed, or failed.

- **`urls`** (`object`, _optional_):
  Object containing related API endpoints.



**Example Response**:

```json
{
  "created_at": "",
  "id": "",
  "model": "",
  "outputs": [
    ""
  ],
  "status": "",
  "urls": {}
}
```


## Usage Examples

### cURL

```bash
# Step 1: Start generation (async)
curl -X POST "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "model": "alibaba/wan-2.2/animate-move",
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "mode": "wan-pro"
}'

# Response will contain: {"code": 200, "data": {"id": "prediction_id", "status": "processing"}}

# Step 2: Poll for result (replace {prediction_id} with the id returned above)
curl -X GET "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY"

# Keep polling until status is "completed", "succeeded" or "failed"
# When completed, outputs will contain the generated content URL(s)
```

### Alibaba Wan 2.2 Animate Move

**Wan2.2-animate-move** is an image-to-animation model that generates a video of a moving person based on a character image and a reference video. It transfers actions and facial expressions from the reference video to the character in the image, offering a low‑cost alternative to motion capture.

#### Key Features

- **Motion Transfer:** Effectively captures motion from a reference video and applies it to a static character image.
- **Dual Modes:**
    - **Standard Mode (wan-std):** Optimized for speed and cost-effectiveness, ideal for quick previews and basic animation needs.
    - **Professional Mode (wan-pro):** Delivers smoother animation and higher overall quality, suitable for production-grade outputs (processing time and cost are higher).
- **Flexible Input Support:** Handles a wide range of resolutions (200px to 4096px for images, up to 2048px for videos) and aspect ratios (1:3 to 3:1).
- **Long Duration:** Supports reference videos ranging from 2 to 30 seconds.

#### Designed For

- **Content Creators:** Quickly animate avatars or characters for social media content.
- **Game Developers:** Prototype character animations using video references.
- **Marketing & Advertising:** Create dynamic character videos from static assets for campaigns.
- **Animation Enthusiasts:** Experiment with motion transfer and character animation.

#### Input Requirements

To ensure the best results, please adhere to the following guidelines:

##### Character Image
- **Content:** Should contain only one person, facing the camera directly, with the face fully visible and unobstructed. The person should occupy a moderate portion of the frame.
- **Format:** JPG, JPEG, PNG, BMP, WEBP.
- **Dimensions:** Width and height between 200 and 4096 pixels.
- **Aspect Ratio:** Between 1:3 and 3:1.
