Use when routing standalone ad-hoc text generation to Qwen or MiniMax provider tools, including setup, model choice, cost discipline, output persistence, and the boundary that the agent remains the primary reasoner.

Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
One of 9 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
We need an LLM tool call that can process both image frame files and text prompts to generate descriptive scene captions for 'projects/nature/assets/frame_001.png'. Which tool supports image inputs?

Use this skill for standalone text-generation provider tools:
qwen_chatminimax_chatThese tools are optional provider calls for bounded text sub-tasks. They do not replace the coding assistant or become a Python pipeline orchestrator.
Video Production Buddy is agent-first. The agent remains the primary reasoner and owner of pipeline decisions, artifacts, validation, and checkpoint writes.
Use text-generation tools only when a specific bounded text job benefits from a billed provider call, such as:
Do not auto-wire these tools into pipeline stages. Do not use them to bypass stage director skills, artifact schemas, reviewer skills, checkpoint policy, or human approval gates.
qwen_chat requires DASHSCOPE_API_KEY and calls Bailian / DashScope's
OpenAI-compatible chat-completions endpoint.
minimax_chat requires MINIMAX_API_KEY. The default API base is the
China-mainland MiniMax host; use MINIMAX_API_BASE when an overseas host is
required.
Both providers are network API tools. Confirm setup through the tool status or
provider_menu_summary() before proposing them as available.
