# AI Multimodal

Process audio, images, videos, documents using Gemini. Generate images, videos, speech, music via Gemini + MiniMax.

## Setup

```bash
# Google Gemini (analysis + image/video gen)
export GEMINI_API_KEY="your-key"  # https://aistudio.google.com/apikey
# MiniMax (image/video/speech/music gen)
export MINIMAX_API_KEY="your-key"  # https://platform.minimax.io/user-center/basic-information/interface-key
pip install google-genai python-dotenv pillow requests
```

### API Key Rotation (Optional)

For high-volume Gemini usage, configure multiple keys:

```bash
export GEMINI_API_KEY="key1"
export GEMINI_API_KEY_2="key2"  # auto-rotates on rate limit
```

## Quick Start

**Verify setup**: `python scripts/check_setup.py`
**Analyze media**: `python scripts/gemini_batch_process.py --files <file> --task <analyze|transcribe|extract>`
  - TIP: When you're asked to analyze an image, check if `gemini` command is available, then use `echo "<prompt to analyze image>" | gemini -y -m <gemini.model>` command (read model from `$HOME/.opencode/.ck.json`: `gemini.model`). If `gemini` command is not available, use `python scripts/gemini_batch_process.py --files <file> --task analyze` command.
**Generate (Gemini)**: `python scripts/gemini_batch_process.py --task <generate|generate-video> --prompt "desc"`
**Generate (MiniMax)**: `python scripts/minimax_cli.py --task <generate|generate-video|generate-speech|generate-music> --prompt "desc"`

> **Stdin support**: Pipe files via stdin for Gemini analysis (auto-detects PNG/JPG/PDF/WAV/MP3).

## Models

### Google Gemini / Imagen
- **Image gen**: `gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview` (Nano Banana 2 - DEFAULT), `gemini-2.5-flash-image` (Flash), `gemini-3-pro-image-preview` (Pro 4K), `imagen-4.0-generate-001` (standard), `imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001` (quality), `imagen-4.0-fast-generate-001` (speed)
- **Video gen**: `veo-3.1-generate-preview` (8s clips with audio)
- **Analysis**: `gemini-2.5-flash` (recommended), `gemini-2.5-pro` (advanced)

### MiniMax (NEW)
- **Image gen**: `image-01` (standard), `image-01-live` (enhanced) - $0.03/image, 1-9 batch
- **Video gen (Hailuo)**: `MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3` (1080p), `MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3-Fast` (50% cheaper), `MiniMax-Hailuo-02` (first+last frame), `S2V-01` (subject ref)
- **Speech/TTS**: `speech-2.8-hd` (best), `speech-2.8-turbo` (fast) - 300+ voices, 40+ languages, emotion control
- **Music**: `music-2.5` - 4-minute songs with vocals, synchronized lyrics

## Scripts

- **`gemini_batch_process.py`**: Gemini CLI for `transcribe|analyze|extract|generate|generate-video`. Auto-resolves API keys, Imagen 4 + Veo + Nano Banana workflows.
- **`minimax_cli.py`**: MiniMax CLI for `generate|generate-video|generate-speech|generate-music`. Supports all MiniMax models.
- **`minimax_generate.py`**: MiniMax generation functions (image, video, speech, music). Library for programmatic use.
- **`minimax_api_client.py`**: MiniMax HTTP client, auth, async polling, file download utilities.
- **`media_optimizer.py`**: ffmpeg/Pillow preflight: compress/resize/convert media to stay within API limits.
- **`document_converter.py`**: Gemini-powered PDF/image/Office → markdown converter.
- **`check_setup.py`**: Setup checker for API keys and dependencies.

Use `--help` for options.

## Limits

**Formats**: Audio (WAV/MP3/AAC, 9.5h), Images (PNG/JPEG/WEBP, 3.6k), Video (MP4/MOV, 6h), PDF (1k pages)
**Size**: 20MB inline, 2GB File API
**Important:** 
- If you are going to generate a transcript of the audio, and the audio length is longer than 15 minutes, the transcript often gets truncated due to output token limits in the Gemini API response. To get the full transcript, you need to split the audio into smaller chunks (max 15 minutes per chunk) and transcribe each segment for a complete transcript.
- If you are going to generate a transcript of the video and the video length is longer than 15 minutes, use ffmpeg to extract the audio from the video, truncate the audio to 15 minutes, transcribe all audio segments, and then combine the transcripts into a single transcript.
**Transcription Output Requirements:**
- Format: Markdown
- Metadata: Duration, file size, generated date, description, file name, topics covered, etc.
- Parts: from-to (e.g., 00:00-00:15), audio chunk name, transcript, status, etc.
- Transcript format: 
  ```
  [HH:MM:SS -> HH:MM:SS] transcript content
  [HH:MM:SS -> HH:MM:SS] transcript content
  ...
  ```
