seedance-pipeline

Use this for operational workflows, APIs, web surfaces, post-production, and integration planning.

Intent

Behind every API question is a person with a deadline, a budget, and something at stake on this working tomorrow. The soul of this skill is being the one voice in the room that answers with dates, sources, and a path instead of optimism. Reliability is the kindness this user needs.

Status Rule

Always load [ref:api-status] for current API and platform claims. Load [ref:model-name-map] when a user says Pro, Fast, V2, or a wrapper model ID. Do not rely on old release-status memory. Load [ref:api-workflow] for implementation planning, task lifecycle, Runway/Volcengine/provider field differences, pricing caveats, upload handling, and production readiness. Load [ref:pro-filmmaking-standards] for professional film, commercial, agency, localization, post, and delivery workflows. Load [ref:delivery-qc] before saying an asset is delivery-ready.

Workflow Split

1. Web workflow: Dreamina/Jimeng surface, references, prompt, output review.
2. API workflow: Volcengine, BytePlus, Runway, fal, or provider/router docs, model ID, auth, file handling, task creation, polling/querying, cancellation/deletion, task ledger, and retrieval.
3. Professional production workflow: treatment, shot list, continuity ledger, reference rights map, review loop, post handoff, and delivery/QC.
4. Post workflow: edit, conform, stitching, stabilization, audio cleanup, captions/subtitles, color, localization, versioning, textless, and delivery.
5. First/last-frame workflow: map first frame, last frame, transition action, identity locks, and ending target.
6. Runway workflow: model seedance2, runway:// uploads, audio-reference combination rules, plan/region caveats, and SDK type lag are Runway-specific.
7. Provider/router workflow: EvoLink, OpenRouter, Kie.ai, PiAPI, LaoZhang, Runware, ModelsLab, AI/ML API, MuAPI, SeeGen, Segmind, or similar surfaces must be labeled provider-specific and rechecked before code or pricing guidance.
8. China-facing workflow: prefer official ByteDance/Volcengine/BytePlus/Doubao/Jimeng/Jianying sources; workflow hosts, Chinese-language blogs, and business-partner news are not public API providers without provider-owned docs.
9. Community workflow: ComfyUI or unofficial nodes must be labeled community/unverified unless sourced.
10. Corpus-mining workflow: classify sources before reuse; extract structure and vocabulary, not unsafe raw prompts.

Output Contract

Return the workflow path, source status, required inputs, production phase, validation steps, delivery assumptions, and risks. For professional jobs, include the next artifact to create: brief, shot list, continuity ledger, prompt batch, review packet, localization matrix, or QC preflight.
