Kling AI offers multiple model versions across video generation, image generation, lip sync, virtual try-on, and effects. Each version trades off quality, speed, and cost. This skill is the reference for choosing the right model.

DecimalAI ran this skill against gemini-3.6-flash twice over the same eval suite — once with the skill loaded and once without — and compared the two runs case by case. 25 cases were attempted. The headline lift of +68 percentage points is the difference between those two pass rates over the 25 comparable cases.
Without the skill loaded, the model failed this case. With it loaded, the same prompt on the same model passed. This is one improved case from the latest verified run; every case, including any that regressed, is in the table above.
Other measured skills in the registry, with their headline benchmark lift.
