About this skill

model-selector

A "shopping advisor" for 15 mainstream AI video models (11 commercial + 4 open-source). Ask the user 3-4 key questions, then give a recommendation + reasons.

When not to use this skill

  • The user has already decided to use a specific model → use the corresponding <model>-prompter skill
  • The user asks "how do I write the prompt" → use seedance-prompter / kling-prompter / happyhorse-prompter
  • The user's prompt isn't working → use seedance-debugger

Workflow

Step 1: Ask 3-4 key questions

Don't ask all of them; pick the 3-4 that most affect the outcome:

Dimension Question
Duration "How long does it need to be? 5 seconds / 10 seconds / over 15 seconds?"
Audio "Do you need native audio? Just ambient sound / dialogue / BGM / none"
Language "Is it a Chinese-language scene or an English-language scene?"
Nature of editing "Brand-new generation or editing an existing video?"
Platform restrictions "Available in China / available internationally / local deployment?"
Use case "Short-video hit / film-grade / commercial ad / personal creation?"

Step 2: Recommend according to the decision tree

└── No → 继续
    ├── 要数字人/真人对口型?
    │   └── Yes → Wan 2.7(业界最准)

    │   └── Yes → Veo 3.1
    ├── 中文剧情/中式美学?
    │   └── Yes → 即梦 3.0(创作者) / Kling 3.0(开发者 API)
    ├── 极致物理感(水/火/动作)?
    │   └── Yes → Hailuo 02 > Sora 2
    ├── 创意爆款特效(变身/融化)?
    │   └── Yes → Pika 2.5(Pikaffects)
    ├── 本地部署/开源/LoRA 训练?
    │   └── Yes → Hunyuan 1.5
    ├── 极致电影质感/艺术片?
    │   └── Yes → Sora 2 > Runway Gen-4
    ├── 5/10/15 秒紧凑短片 + 环境音?

Practical examples

Example 1: The user asks "I want to make a Chinese short drama"

Clarifying questions:

  1. Short drama duration? A clip under 10 seconds or a complete 1-2 minute story?
  2. Do you need native audio (character dialogue)?
  3. Do you lean toward realistic / ancient-style / modern urban?

User's answer: A single 10-second clip, with dialogue, modern urban.

Output:

Best choice:Kling 3.0 Reason: Chinese comprehension is tied for first in the industry (with Jimeng), native audio supports character-directed speech, up to 15 seconds per single segment, and the 5-layer advanced formula is naturally suited to narrative.

Corresponding skill:skills/kling-prompter Corresponding methodology:methodology/09-kling-公式.md Official platform:klingai.com

Alternative:Wan 2.7(If there are many dialogue scenes and you need a strong digital human feel) / Jimeng 3.0(If doing post-production directly in CapCut)


Example 2: User asks "I have a video and want to change its style, like turn it into a watercolor animation"

Judgment: Editing an existing video → directly recommend Runway Aleph.

Output:

Best choice:Runway Aleph Reason: Editing existing videos is Aleph's exclusive capability (the other 10 models cannot do it).re-style The verb is specifically used for style transfer, and can keep the original motion and temporal sequence unchanged.

Example prompt:

Re-style this clip as a hand-painted watercolor animation. Soft brush textures, flowing edges, warm palette. Preserve all motion and timing exactly.

Corresponding methodology:methodology/13-六大模型公式速查.md#1-runway-gen-4--aleph Official platform:Runway

Alternative: There is no real substitute. If absolutely necessary, Hunyuan Video can also make some changes (open source), but it is not a native editing capability.


Example 3: User asks "I want to build a local video generation setup myself, and my budget is limited"

Clarifying questions:

  1. What is the GPU configuration? (24GB / 12GB / 8GB)
  2. Main use? (Personal play / self-training LoRA / commercial)

User answer: RTX 4090 24GB, wants to self-train LoRA.

Output:

Best choice:Hunyuan Video 1.5(8.3B version) Reason: Strongest open source, can run on 24GB VRAM, natively supports LoRA training, active community (full ComfyUI workflow support).

Recommended parameters:Q5_K_M GGUF + 30 steps + dpmpp_2m_sde + sgm_uniform + cfg 6.0 Official resources:

Alternative: CogVideoX (Zhipu open source) / LTX Video (Lightricks real-time) — these two are not included in this repository's main directory, but they belong to the same open-source camp.
