Create AI avatar videos with precise control over avatars, voices, scripts, scenes, and backgrounds using HeyGen's v2 API. Use when: (1) Choosing a specific avatar and voice for a video, (2) Writing exact scripts for an avatar to speak, (3) Building multi-scene videos with different backgrounds per scene, (4) Creating transparent WebM videos for compositing, (5) Using talking photos as video presenters, (6) Integrating HeyGen avatars with Remotion, (7) Batch video generation with exact specs, (8) Brand-consistent production videos with precise control.

Avatar Video

Create AI avatar videos with full control over avatars, voices, scripts, scenes, and backgrounds. Build single or multi-scene videos with exact configuration using HeyGen's /v2/video/generate API.

Authentication

All requests require the X-Api-Key header. Set the HEYGEN_API_KEY environment variable.

curl -X GET "https://api.heygen.com/v2/avatars" \
  -H "X-Api-Key: $HEYGEN_API_KEY"

Tool Selection

If HeyGen MCP tools are available (mcp__heygen__*), prefer them over direct HTTP API calls — they handle authentication and request formatting automatically.

TaskMCP ToolFallback (Direct API)
Check video status / get URLmcp__heygen__get_videoGET /v2/videos/{video_id}
List account videosmcp__heygen__list_videosGET /v2/videos
Delete a videomcp__heygen__delete_videoDELETE /v2/videos/{video_id}

Video generation (POST /v2/video/generate) and avatar/voice listing are done via direct API calls — see reference files below.

Default Workflow

  1. List avatars — GET /v2/avatars → pick an avatar, preview it, note avatar_id and default_voice_id. See avatars.md
  2. List voices (if needed) — GET /v2/voices → pick a voice matching the avatar's gender/language. See voices.md
  3. Write the script — Structure scenes with one concept each. See scripts.md
  4. Generate the video — POST /v2/video/generate with avatar, voice, script, and background per scene. See video-generation.md
  5. Poll for completion — GET /v2/videos/{video_id} until status is completed. See video-status.md

When to Use This Skill vs Create Video

This skill is for precise control — you choose the avatar, write the exact script, configure each scene.

If the user just wants to describe a video idea and let AI handle the rest (script, avatar, visuals), use the create-video skill instead.

User SaysCreate Video SkillThis Skill
"Make me a video about X"✓
"Create a product demo"✓
"I want avatar Y to say exactly Z"✓
"Multi-scene video with different backgrounds"✓
"Transparent WebM for compositing"✓
"Use this specific voice for my script"✓
"Batch generate videos with exact specs"✓

Best Practices

  1. Preview avatars before generating — Download preview_image_url so the user can see the avatar before committing
  2. Use avatar's default voice — Most avatars have a default_voice_id pre-matched for natural results
  3. Fallback: match gender manually — If no default voice, ensure avatar and voice genders match
  4. Use test mode for development — Set test: true to avoid consuming credits (output will be watermarked)
  5. Set generous timeouts — Video generation often takes 5-15 minutes, sometimes longer
  6. Validate inputs — Check avatar and voice IDs exist before generating

Generate Mandarin and multilingual narration with Volcengine Doubao Speech 2.0. Use when creating Chinese voiceovers, when the user prefers Doubao/Volcengine/火山引擎/豆包 TTS, or when narration needs character-level timestamp metadata for subtitles.

Edit existing videos using AI — remix style, upscale, remove background, and add audio via fal.ai's hosted video models.

Video and audio processing with FFmpeg. Use for format conversion, resizing, compression, audio extraction, and preparing assets for Remotion. Triggers include converting GIF to MP4, resizing video, extracting audio, compressing files, or any media transformation task.

Author or edit a custom HyperFrames composition when no specialized workflow fits, or when BRIEF.md sets flow: companion. Use for longer or multi-scene pieces, brand and sizzle reels, montages, static loops, static title cards, footage remixes, and freeform builds. Use motion-graphics instead for a short unnarrated motion-first unit, including an animated title. Route fresh creation through hyperframes before using this skill.

Generate HeyGen presenter videos via the v3 Video Agent pipeline — handles Frame Check (aspect ratio correction), prompt engineering, avatar resolution, and voice selection. Required for any HeyGen video generation. Replaces deprecated endpoints with v3. Use when: (1) generating any HeyGen video (via API or otherwise), (2) sending a personalized video message (outreach, update, announcement, pitch, knowledge), (3) creating a HeyGen presenter-led explainer, tutorial, or product demo with a human face, (4) "make a video of me saying...", "send a video to my leads", "record an update for my team", "create a video pitch", "make a loom-style message", "I want to appear in this video", "generate a HeyGen video", "make a talking head video". Accepts avatar_id from heygen-avatar for identity-first HeyGen videos, or uses a stock presenter. Returns video share URL + HeyGen session URL for iteration. Chain signal: when the user wants to create/design an avatar AND make a video in the same request, run heygen-avatar f...

All animation knowledge for HyperFrames — atomic motion rules, multi-phase scene blueprints, scene transitions, broader motion-design techniques, AND the seven runtime adapters (GSAP default, plus Lottie, Three.js, Anime.js, CSS keyframes, Web Animations API, TypeGPU). Use for any motion or animation task: pick 2-4 rules and compose, or load a blueprint, or look up runtime-specific API (e.g. GSAP eases / Lottie player / Three.js mixer). Also covers auditing an existing composition's choreography (animation map) and 24 named text-animation effects. HyperFrames-native: single paused timeline, seek-safe, deterministic.

The HyperFrames composition contract — build one renderable project. Use for composition structure, the `data-*` timing attributes, `class="clip"`, tracks, sub-compositions, variables, framework-owned media playback, deterministic-render rules, and validation. Read before writing composition HTML.
