-- **Capabilities**: text-to-video, image-to-video, camera movement instructions
+## Model Selection Guide
+
+Ask the user: "What kind of video? Rough draft, final clip, image-to-video, or creative/social?"
+
+| Need | Model | Backend | Cost | Speed |
+|------|-------|---------|------|-------|
+| Rough drafts, high volume | Seedance 2.0 Fast | ByteDance (direct API) | $0.05-0.15/sec | Fast |
+| Final clips, quality | Seedance 2.0 | ByteDance (direct API) | $0.07-0.20/sec | Balanced |
+| Image-to-video | Seedance 1.5 Pro | ByteDance (direct API) | $0.01-0.15/sec | Good |
+| Creative, social, testing | Hailuo 2.3 | OpenRouter | Free tier | Good |
+
+## Backend 1: OpenRouter (Hailuo 2.3 — creative/social)
 
-## API Call Format
 ```bash
 curl -s https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions \
   -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENROUTER_API_KEY" \
   -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
   -d '{
     "model": "minimax/hailuo-2.3:free",
-    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Generate a video of: <detailed description>"}]
+    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Generate a video of: <description>"}]
   }'
 ```
 
-## Camera Movement
-Include camera directions in square brackets within the prompt:
-- `[Pan Left]`, `[Pan Right]`, `[Tilt Up]`, `[Tilt Down]`
-- `[Zoom In]`, `[Zoom Out]`, `[Tracking Shot]`, `[Dolly]`
+- Source API key from: `source ~/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf`

-## Prompt Tips
-- Describe the scene, subject, action, setting, and mood in detail
-- Include lighting, color palette, camera movement
-- For image-to-video: describe what happens starting from the reference image
-- Keep prompts under 500 characters for best results
+## Backend 2: ByteDance (Seedance — drafts/finals/image-to-video)

+- **Scene**: Describe subject, setting, action, lighting, mood
+- **Timing**: 5-6 seconds default for Hailuo, adjustable for Seedance
+- **Image-to-video**: For Seedance 1.5 Pro, provide a reference image path
 
 ## Output
-The video comes back as a URL or base64. Save it to the user's current working directory with a `.mp4` extension. Then use `read` to display it inline.
 
-## API Key
-Get OPENROUTER_API_KEY from `~/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf` (source it first).
+1. Save video to current working directory: `<name>.mp4`
+2. Call `read` tool on the saved file to display inline in pi
+3. Tell the user where it was saved
 
-## Duration / Resolution
-- Default: 6 seconds
-- Resolution: up to 1080p (specify in prompt if needed)
-- The free tier may have limits on duration and resolution
+## No API Key?
+
+If no ByteDance key is set, fall back to Hailuo 2.3 via OpenRouter (free tier). It's the default.
