-    description: 'Use this when the user wants a video clip made from a prompt; for a finished, branded video ad use render_ad. Render a RAW video clip from your own prompt and return its served mp4 URL. For finished brand ADS prefer render_ad (it runs the Studio quality pipeline — composited text, clean speech, end card, music); use this for raw/experimental clips or precise manual control. ONE generation = one continuous clip up to the model’s longest listed duration — the longest-clip model in the catalog today renders a full multi-beat spot of up to 30 SECONDS in ONE unbroken take with native synchronized audio, so never assume a generic 8–10s cap and never stitch something that fits one clip; durationSeconds must be one of the model’s durations from hermoso_capabilities, which is the live list. TO GET A SPECIFIC MODEL, NAME IT in `model`: an unnamed render is routed by the server’s own auto-pool, which is narrower than the catalog, so the longest-clip and highest-resolution models are reached by naming them. Renders take 1–3 min. refImage anchors the opening frame; ttsScript adds a voiceover. AUDIO IS NOT FREE AND NOT OPTIONAL BY DEFAULT: a clip delivered with no audio of its own gets a music bed composed and CHARGED on top of the render (see musicMood and audio) — on a cheap short draft the bed can cost as much as the clip. Pass refVideo (a clip URL) to EDIT an existing video instead — the omni engine transforms that clip per your prompt, inheriting its canvas + length (aspectRatio/durationSeconds are ignored for an edit). RAW MODEL ACCESS: by default a few small guards are appended (packaging/label safety with no reference image, a negative prompt where the model takes one, reference-binding lines) and hex colour codes become colour names; ' + RAW_TOOL_NOTE + ' Spends credits (Starter plan is video-blocked server-side).',
