What it does
Wraps Jimeng's Dream Actor model behind the dLazy hosted service and its dlazy jimeng-dream-actor CLI command. It takes a prompt, one character image and optionally one driving video, and returns an action video of that character. The SKILL.md only documents CLI flags (prompt, images, videos, save path, dry-run cost estimate); it does not describe limits, durations or what the driving video controls.
Use when
- You want a static character or person image turned into a moving action video
- You want to make an image move using Jimeng Dream Actor
- You have a reference motion video to drive a character photo
