## Authentication

Every request needs a GPTProto API key in the `Authorization` header. Create one at https://gptproto.com/dashboard/api-key, then export it:

```bash
export GPTPROTO_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Header: `Authorization: Bearer $GPTPROTO_API_KEY` (plus `Content-Type: application/json` on POST).

## API Information

The API is asynchronous: POST the endpoint to create a prediction, then poll its result URL until `status` is `completed` or `failed`.

### Input Schema

The endpoint accepts the following JSON body parameters:

- **`prompt`** (`string`, _optional_):
  The positive prompt for the generation.

- **`image`** (`string`, _required_):
  Supported image formats:.jpg /.jpeg /.png The size of the image file should not exceed 10MB, the width and height of the image should be no less than 300px, and the aspect ratio of the image should be between 1:2.5 and 2.5:1

- **`video`** (`string`, _required_):
  Supported video formats:.mp4/.mov The size of the video file should not exceed 10MB, the width and height of the video should be no less than 300px, and the aspect ratio of the video should be between 1:2.5 and 2.5:1

- **`character_orientation`** (`enum`, _required_):
  Generate the orientation of the characters in the video, which can be selected to match the image or the video.
  - Default: `image`
  - Options: image, video

- **`negative_prompt`** (`string`, _optional_):
  The negative prompt for the generation.

- **`keep_original_sound`** (`enum`, _optional_):
  Whether to retain the original video sound
  - Default: `true`
  - Options: true, false

**Required Parameters Example**:

```json
{
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "character_orientation": "image"
}
```

**Full Example**:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "character_orientation": "image",
  "negative_prompt": "",
  "keep_original_sound": true
}
```

### Output Schema

Both submit and poll return the same envelope:

- **`data.id`** (`string`): Prediction id. Use it as `result_id` when polling for the result.
- **`data.status`** (`string`): One of `created`, `running`, `completed`, `failed`. See Status Values below.
- **`data.outputs`** (`array of string`): Generated files. Empty until `status` is `completed`; then it holds the output URLs (or base64 strings when the model exposes a base64 option).
- **`data.urls.get`** (`string`): Authoritative result URL for this prediction. Prefer it over building the poll URL yourself.
- **`data.error`** (`string | null`): Failure reason when `status` is `failed`, otherwise `null`.
- **`data.executionTime`** (`integer`): Total processing time in milliseconds.
- **`data.timings.inference`** (`integer`): Model inference time in milliseconds.
- **`data.hasNsfwContents`** (`array of boolean`): Per-output moderation flags.
- **`message`** (`string`): `success` on a normal response, otherwise the error message.
- **`code`** (`integer`): Business status code. `200` means the request was accepted.

**Example Response — submit (task accepted)**:

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "pred_example_01",
    "model": "kling-v2.6-std",
    "outputs": [],
    "urls": {
      "get": "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/predictions/pred_example_01/result"
    },
    "hasNsfwContents": [],
    "status": "created",
    "createdAt": "2026-01-01T12:00:00Z",
    "executionTime": 0,
    "timings": {
      "inference": 0
    }
  },
  "message": "success",
  "code": 200
}
```

**Example Response — poll (completed)**:

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "pred_example_01",
    "model": "kling-v2.6-std",
    "outputs": [
      "https://oss-us.gptproto.com/example/output.mp4"
    ],
    "urls": {
      "get": "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/predictions/pred_example_01/result"
    },
    "status": "completed",
    "error": null,
    "executionTime": 12345,
    "timings": {
      "inference": 12000
    },
    "has_nsfw_contents": [],
    "created_at": "2026-01-01T12:00:00Z"
  },
  "message": "success",
  "code": 200
}
```

### Status Values

- `created` — Task accepted. Use `data.id` as `result_id` for polling.
- `running` — Generation is in progress. Keep polling.
- `completed` — Finished successfully. Generated files are in `data.outputs`.
- `failed` — Generation failed. Read `data.error` for the reason.

## Usage Examples

### 1. Submit a request

```bash
curl --request POST "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/kling/kling-v2.6-std/motion-control" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $GPTPROTO_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
    "image": "",
    "video": "",
    "character_orientation": "image",
    "negative_prompt": "",
    "keep_original_sound": true
  }'
```

```python
import os
import requests

url = "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/kling/kling-v2.6-std/motion-control"
headers = {
  "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['GPTPROTO_API_KEY']}",
  "Content-Type": "application/json"
}
payload = {
  "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
  "image": "",
  "video": "",
  "character_orientation": "image",
  "negative_prompt": "",
  "keep_original_sound": True
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, json=payload)
print(response.json())
```

```typescript
const response = await fetch("https://gptproto.com/api/v3/kling/kling-v2.6-std/motion-control", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Authorization": `Bearer ${process.env.GPTPROTO_API_KEY}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    prompt: "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
    image: "",
    video: "",
    character_orientation: "image",
    negative_prompt: "",
    keep_original_sound: true,
  }),
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
```

### 2. Poll until the task finishes

Replace `YOUR_RESULT_ID` with `data.id` from the submit response (or call `data.urls.get` directly), and keep polling every 1–3 seconds while `status` is `created` or `running`.

```bash
result_id="YOUR_RESULT_ID"

curl --request GET "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/predictions/$result_id/result" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $GPTPROTO_API_KEY"
```

```python
import os
import requests

result_id = "YOUR_RESULT_ID"
url = f"https://gptproto.com/api/v3/predictions/{result_id}/result"
headers = {
  "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['GPTPROTO_API_KEY']}"
}
response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers)
print(response.json())
```

```typescript
const result_id = "YOUR_RESULT_ID";
const response = await fetch(`https://gptproto.com/api/v3/predictions/${result_id}/result`, {
  method: "GET",
  headers: {
    "Authorization": `Bearer ${process.env.GPTPROTO_API_KEY}`,
  },
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
```
