Requires a prefix_video (mp4 URL); adds 2-5s. **[Routing]** Provide prompt and prefix_video; choose cut_type for the transition style, or Auto to let the model decide. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /model-api/skywork/skyreels-v2v.json post /skywork/video-extension-shot-switching openapi: 3.1.0 info: description: >- The video-to-video models API from SkyReels (Skywork).
