Excerpt

Heygen

Agent-callable tools for HeyGen's AI video platform, over the public HeyGen v3 API (https://api.heygen.com). Generate AI avatar videos from a script or audio, generate short cinematic clips from a prompt, translate and lip-sync existing videos, drive the prompt-to-video Video Agent, synthesize speech, and browse the avatars and voices those jobs need. Video generation is asynchronous: a create tool returns an id, and you poll the matching get* tool until the job is completed and its result URLs appear.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
