Plan AI creator-style product ads with a phone-filmed feel. Shape the creator, setting, timed script, and shot prompts; keep the face, voice, and product consistent, then review the clips and label AI content where required.
Open-source alternative to Arcads: AI UGC ads with an AI actor holding your real product. Casts a creator whose age matches the claim in the room where the problem happens, writes a phone-real script (a yapper, unboxing, street interview or in-car take) with every line in the prompt, locks the face, the voice and the product label across shots, prompts camera flaws and breaths so it doesn't look waxy, generates on Seedance 2.5, Kling 4 or Creatify through varg, and labels it. It never puts a first-person testimonial or result in an AI mouth (FTC rule) and never targets TikTok Shop presenters (AI voices banned there). Use when someone wants AI UGC ads, an AI creator or actor talking about their product, Arcads/Creatify/MakeUGC-style ads, or UGC without hiring creators. NOT for TikTok Shop affiliate videos (use tiktok-shop-video), product-only shots with no person (use product-photo-to-video), or the same characters across a multi-scene story (use varg-consistent-characters).

An AI creator talks to camera about your product, holds it, uses it, and sounds like a person filming themselves. Generation runs on varg: the MCP (call_tool) or POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/{image|video|speech}/call. Quote credits only, from estimate_cost, and wait for a yes before spending.
What the data says: in one operator's $100K test (220 videos), human UGC had the higher CTR and AI the higher ROAS, because AI made more variants cheaply. AI works for cold traffic, low-trust products and finding the winning angle; it is weak for high-ticket offers and warm audiences. The script matters more than whether the face is real. Use AI to find the angle, then consider remaking the winner with a real creator.

Pick one, then make an identity sheet (front, ¾, side, expressions) and reuse the same image on every shot. Deeper casting: varg-character-design.| Format | Shape | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Yapper | 30–60 s to camera, a story; product named as the fix after ~35 s | The 2026 workhorse; do the jump cuts by hand (cut on a blink) |
| End-of-day vlog | 15 s, low energy, product beside the face | Template in references/prompts.md P1 |
| Unboxing / in-hand demo | Product by second 2 | Highest hit-rate format on Meta |
| Street interview | The question hooks; no product for ~15 s | Feed each finished clip back as the reference for the next |
| In-car | Private, unscripted | "The cheapest to render well" |
| Podcast clip | Host + guest | Use varg-podcast-video |
Every spoken line goes in the video prompt, with timings. Under ~85 words for 30 s. Open on the most embarrassing version of the problem, or mid-motion with a throwaway line ("Okay. Last thing, then bed."). Add written-in stumbles. End on one CTA.
For each beat (≤5 s, or one 15 s Seedance take):
Seedance 2.5 / Kling 4 inputs:
image 1 = the creator still (identity)
image 2 = the product photo (label readable)
prompt = TALENT / PRODUCT (label text spelled out in order) / LOCATION / LIGHTING (one condition)
/ FRAMING / beats with dialogue / PERFORMANCE / CAMERA CHARACTER / POSITIVE LOCKS
seedance_2_5: the most real; reported ~3 attempts per keeper. kling_v4: cheaper, often right first time. Draft on kling_v4_flash.creatify_boreal: a product presenter with synced speech in one call, when speed matters more than control.eleven_v4 + sync_v3 lip-sync. Give the model the voice file and the exact transcript, or it stretches the speech to fit the motion.Full prompts (realistic skincare UGC, camcorder vlog, street interview chain, Creatify JSON): references/prompts.md.
Before anything reaches the edit, compare each clip with the references: face (jaw, freckles, hair), label text letter by letter, product shape and colour, hand count, lip-sync drift. Regenerate failures; don't fix them with captions.

Plan worthwhile local tasks by checking dependencies, effects, resources, and platform boundaries, then execute the exact approved plan. It can use safe parallel work or suitable Apple-silicon backends when the project exposes them.
Turn a winning TikTok or Meta ad into a structured creative test plan. Identify what made it work, plan distinct concepts, set test budgets and review timing, and use funnel metrics to decide whether to stop, iterate, or scale each ad.
Record deferred engineering decisions and temporary workarounds in a debt registry, with context such as effort, ongoing cost, affected area, and payoff trigger. Entries receive short labels so they can be reviewed or dropped later.
Generate or compare AI agent code for LangChain, EINO, AutoGen, AgentScope, and CrewAI using framework-specific templates, API mappings, conventions, and project structures. Reference files include verification dates to help identify potentially outdated guidance.
Investigate a reproducible bug, test failure, or unexpected page behavior, then make a narrowly scoped fix. The workflow calls for a regression test before changing code, verifies the fix, and reports remaining risks and evidence while avoiding unrelated refactoring or feature work.
Build an AI agent project through six collaborative stages, from requirements and architecture to tools, prompts, code generation, and verification. Start framework-independent, then generate a runnable project for frameworks such as LangChain, EINO, AutoGen, AgentScope, or CrewAI.
