HeyGen API (Deprecated)

This skill is deprecated. Use the focused skills instead:

• create-video — Generate videos from a text prompt (Video Agent API)
• avatar-video — Build videos with specific avatars, voices, scripts, and scenes (v2 API)

This skill remains for backward compatibility but will be removed in a future release.

AI avatar video creation API for generating talking-head videos, explainers, and presentations.

Tool Selection

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