Its Xia Director agent also turns a brief into node workflows on an infinite canvas with 18 node types, Seedance 2.5 video and a 3D director stage for blocking and camera. An Agent Kit exposes the same workflows to Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw and other MCP clients. Runs self-hosted with Docker. ## Use when - Turn a manuscript or screenplay into a drama series - Have an agent build a brief-to-final-cut workflow on a canvas - Keep sets and characters consistent with 3D previs and asset libraries - Drive drama production from Claude Code or Codex over MCP - Make an interactive branching video story ## Install Not published as a standalone skill yet.
