I have been working on something similar but also quite different, and I find this interesting. Do you foresee that the cost of video generation, for example, be managed by the user via his own API keys configured for different platforms?
1. Existing CLI solution is provider specific, like minimax cli, chatgpt cli, etc. and for other providers, there's no built-in CLI support.
2. For local CLI/scripts solution, the generation result/history is not tracked, sometimes, I want to generate a similar image, I have to keep the prompts in a notebook. Now, with imagent, I can simply remix any prompt from the library.
3. CLI is the best solution for agent automation, I can use the cli to generate slides, blog illustrations, website assets, etc. And with it, I can even generate videos with hyperframes/remotions with great illustrations and speech audios. All it done by agent, I don't need to create images, audios by myself.
4. Agent isn't aware of the difference/limitation of different models, by maintain the catalogs, agent can discover what is available and choose the best options as its need. And call it in a unified interface.
So, the cost of video generation is not my focus at this point, what I care is automation. If we give the agent such ability, what the agent can create for us automatically. Not vibe code, but vibe creation.
