  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 7 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by freestylefly on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Flyworks Avatar Video AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/freestylefly/canghe-skills/tree/master/skills/flyworks-avatar-video-1.0.0
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/freestylefly/canghe-skills.git /tmp/canghe-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/canghe-skills/skills/flyworks-avatar-video-1.0.0 .claude/skills/flyworks-avatar-video
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Flyworks Avatar Video in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Flyworks Avatar Video on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Flyworks Avatar Video is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Avatar Video Generation Skill

This skill allows you to generate videos using Flyworks (a.k.a HiFly 飞影数字人) Digital Humans. Available features:

  1. Public Avatar Video: Create video from text or audio using pre-made highly realistic avatars.
  2. Talking Photo: Create a "talking photo" video from a single image and text/audio.
  3. Voice Cloning: Clone a voice from an audio sample to use in TTS.

For detailed documentation, see the references/ folder:

API Token & Limitations

This skill works with a default free-tier token, but it has limitations:

  • Watermark: Generated videos will have a watermark.
  • Duration Limit: Videos are limited to 30 seconds.

To remove limitations:

  1. Register at hifly.cc or flyworks.ai.
  2. Get your API key from User Settings.
  3. Set the environment variable: export HIFLY_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

Tools

scripts/hifly_client.py

The main entry point for all operations.

Usage
bash
# List available public avatars

# Clone a voice using bundled assets
python scripts/hifly_client.py clone_voice --audio assets/voice.MP3 --title "Bundled Voice"

# Check status of generated tasks
python scripts/hifly_client.py check_task --id "TASK_ID"

# Manage local aliases (saved in memory.json)
python scripts/hifly_client.py manage_memory add my_avatar "av_12345"
python scripts/hifly_client.py manage_memory list

Examples

1. Create a simple greeting video

bash
# First find a voice and avatar
python scripts/hifly_client.py list_public_avatars
python scripts/hifly_client.py list_public_voices

# Generate
python scripts/hifly_client.py create_video --type tts --text "Welcome to our service." --avatar "av_public_01" --voice "voice_public_01"

2. Use a custom talking photo

bash
# Create the avatar from an image URL
python scripts/hifly_client.py create_talking_photo --image "https://mysite.com/photo.jpg" --title "CEO Photo"
# Output will give you an Avatar ID, e.g., av_custom_99

# Save it to memory
python scripts/hifly_client.py manage_memory add ceo av_custom_99

# Generate video using the new avatar
python scripts/hifly_client.py create_video --type tts --text "Here is the quarterly report." --avatar ceo --voice "voice_public_01"

Agent Behavior Guidelines

When assisting users with video generation, follow these guidelines:

Voice Selection Required

Video generation requires both text AND a voice. If the user provides text but no voice:

  1. Check local memory first: Run manage_memory list to see if the user has saved any voice aliases.

  2. Ask the user to choose:

    • "I see you want to create a video with the text '[text]'. Which voice would you like to use?"
    • If they have saved voices: "You have these saved voices: [list]. Or would you prefer a public voice?"
    • If no saved voices: "Would you like to use a public voice, or clone your own voice from an audio sample first?"
  3. Help them select:

    • To see public voices: list_public_voices
    • To clone a voice: clone_voice --audio [file] --title [name]

Complete Workflow Example

For a prompt like "Create a talking photo video from my photo saying 'this is my AI twin'":

  1. Ask: "Which voice would you like for your AI twin? You can use a public voice or clone your own."
  2. If they want to clone: Help them with clone_voice
  3. Create the talking photo with both text and voice:
    bash
    python scripts/hifly_client.py create_talking_photo \
      --image user_photo.jpg \
      --text "this is my AI twin" \
      --voice SELECTED_VOICE_ID \
      --title "My AI Twin"

Saving for Later

After creating avatars or cloning voices, offer to save them:

bash
python scripts/hifly_client.py manage_memory add my_avatar AVATAR_ID --kind avatar
python scripts/hifly_client.py manage_memory add my_voice VOICE_ID --kind voice

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Flyworks Avatar Video AI skill do?

Generate videos using Flyworks (a.k.a HiFly) Digital Humans. Create talking photo videos from images, use public avatars with TTS, or clone voices for custom audio.

Why use Flyworks Avatar Video on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Flyworks Avatar Video is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Flyworks Avatar Video in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/freestylefly/canghe-skills/tree/master/skills/flyworks-avatar-video-1.0.0. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Flyworks Avatar Video?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Flyworks Avatar Video?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Flyworks Avatar Video with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Flyworks Avatar Video AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by freestylefly under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
