Generate videos using Google's Veo models.

Supports:

• Text-to-video: Provide a text prompt (all models)

• Image-to-video: Provide an image path (Veo 3 only)

• Both: Provide both image and prompt for guided animation (Veo 3 only)

This tool starts a background video generation process that:

1. Initiates video generation with the specified parameters

2. Monitors progress in the background

To download generated videos, use veo_download_video after generation completes.

Returns:

• session_id: Use with veo_check_generation to monitor progress

• status: Current generation status

• pid: Process ID of the background worker

Examples: Text-to-video: "Serene waterfall in a lush forest, cinematic lighting" Image-to-video: Use image_path="/path/to/image.jpg" with optional prompt

Check the status of a video generation subprocess.

This monitors the subprocess that is handling the video generation, not the Gemini API directly. The subprocess handles all API polling.

If the generation has an operation_id, you can also use veo_check_operation to directly query Google's API for the operation status.

List all video generation sessions.

Shows all subprocess-based generation sessions with their current status.

List all video generation sessions.

Shows all subprocess-based generation sessions with their current status.

Clean up old generation sessions and their files.

Removes state files and optionally downloaded videos for old sessions.

Download a generated video from a completed generation session.

Use this tool to:

• Download videos after generation completes

• Download a specific video from multiple samples

• Re-download previously generated videos

Note: Due to current SDK limitations, this downloads placeholder data. The actual video generation API requires allowlist access.

Returns:

• file_path: Path to the downloaded video file

• file_size: Size of the downloaded file

• success: Whether download was successful
