## 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).

## Pricing

Platform price by tier (USD, already includes the GPTProto discount):

- **0** — $0.441 per run

Price range: $0.441 – $0.441 per generation.

Prices may change. The model page always shows the live price: https://gptproto.com/model/minimax/hailuo-2.3-pro/text-to-video

## 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`, _required_):
  The positive prompt for the generation.

- **`enable_prompt_expansion`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  The model automatically optimizes incoming prompts to enhance output quality. This also activates the safety checker, which ensures content safety by detecting and filtering potential risks.
  - Default: `true`
  - Options: true, false

**Required Parameters Example**:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle"
}
```

**Full Example**:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
  "enable_prompt_expansion": 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": "hailuo-2.3-pro",
    "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": "hailuo-2.3-pro",
    "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/minimax/hailuo-2.3-pro/text-to-video" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $GPTPROTO_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "prompt": "A tiny origami fox sailing a teacup across a moonlit puddle",
    "enable_prompt_expansion": true
  }'
```

```python
import os
import requests

url = "https://gptproto.com/api/v3/minimax/hailuo-2.3-pro/text-to-video"
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",
  "enable_prompt_expansion": True
}

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

```typescript
const response = await fetch("https://gptproto.com/api/v3/minimax/hailuo-2.3-pro/text-to-video", {
  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",
    enable_prompt_expansion: 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);
```

## Example Prompts

- Opening Shot: A rapid, low-angle tracking shot races through a rain-soaked neon city at night. The street glistens under flickering signs, their colors exploding across puddles in streaks of crimson and electric blue. Torrents of rain slash diagonally past the lens as the camera…
- An overhead, cinematic aerial shot sweeps across a vast desert, where endless yellow sandstorms swirl under a raging sky. The wind howls through the barren expanse, filling the frame with an oppressive yet frenzied atmosphere. As a sudden gust surges past the lens, the camera tra…
- Camera: A high-angle helicopter/drone shot overlooking a coastal city, shaking violently. The camera pans from the panicking crowds in the streets to the horizon, revealing the approaching wave.
