Automatic Video Foley

Generate synchronized Foley and ambient sound for a supplied silent or under-scored video clip.

Required Aident Actions

• <action-tag>direct:fal:fal_list_video_to_audio_models</action-tag> (required inputs: inspect the current schema): List active Fal video-to-audio models with current platform-key pricing, descriptions, required inputs, defaults, choices, documentation links, and pagination cursors. Use this before fal_video_to_audio when choosing...
• <action-tag>direct:fal:fal_video_to_audio</action-tag> (required inputs: model): Run an active Fal video-to-audio model. Call fal_list_video_to_audio_models before selecting another model to inspect current pricing, required fields, defaults, and model differences. Prompt and text shortcuts...

Use Aident Loadout to read the current Action schema before constructing inputs. CheAction · List Video To Audio Modelson is billable or mutating, run Aident preflight, show the affected target and quoted cost or risk, and wait for explicit user confirmation before execution.

Workflow

1. Confirm the requested outcome, source material, destination, audience, constraints, and acceptaAction · Video To Audioow to create a concrete plan. Resolve ambiguity before invoking an Action.
2. Select only the Aident Actions whose documented effect directly advances the requested outcome. Do not invoke every listed Action by default.
3. Inspect the current schema and prepare the minimum valid input for each selected Action.
4. Preflight each selected Action. Execute it only after any required confirmation, in dependency order, and carry returned IDs or asset URLs into later steps.
5. Verify the returned IDs, URLs, statuses, or artifacts against the acceptance criteria. Report partial completion precisely and do not repeat paid or mutating calls blindly.

Source-Derived Guidance

• Collect the source video, desired sound categories, realism or stylization target, and any moments that must remain silent.
• Use direct:fal:fal_list_video_to_audio_models to select a currently supported model designed for video-conditioned sound generation.
• Use direct:fal:fal_video_to_audio with the supplied clip and a concise sound brief grounded in visible actions; do not add dialogue, licensed music, or off-screen events unless requested and supported.
• Verify playback, approximate duration match, synchronization of major visible events, absence of unwanted speech or music, and usable audio quality before returning the result.

Execution Boundaries

• Treat upstream provider-specific commands as background knowledge only. Execute the workflow through the exact Aident Actions above.
• Never request raw credentials in chat. Use Aident Vault connection flows for required accounts.
• Preserve user-provided wording, brand constraints, rights restrictions, and target identifiers. Do not invent authorization.
• Pass assets by Aident asset ID or supported URL fields. Do not expose caller-local filesystem paths to hosted Actions.
• Stop when a required integration is disconnected, preflight rejects the input, the target is ambiguous, or the user declines a required confirmation.

Output

Return the execution plan, selected Action names, confirmed targets, Aident result identifiers or asset URLs, verification evidence, and any remaining blocked step.
