Vertex AI Veo Video Generator: skill pack for Hermes Agent

Hermes skill that generates video with Google Vertex AI Veo 3.1 and fetches results from Cloud Storage

What Vertex AI Veo Video Generator does

The skill automates the Vertex AI API interaction for text-to-video generation with Veo 3.1 and manages the Google Cloud Storage artifacts involved: it uploads generation requests, fetches the final .mp4 from the configured bucket, and delivers it to the user. Authentication uses a service account JSON file referenced by GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS.

Configuration is done with four environment variables: GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT, GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION (the example uses us-central1), VEO_GCS_BUCKET and GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS. The repository holds SKILL.md with the declarative agent instructions and scripts/generate.py, the Python script that talks to Vertex AI and GCS. The README also points agents to an llms.txt file describing structural constraints and the execution flow. It is installed with a hermes skills install command that points at the raw SKILL.md.
