What this API does

Create a 480p or 720p Seedance 2.5 clip from one or more public reference images and optional audio references. Scrollport exposes explicit aspect ratio and duration so the pre-run hold and final token settlement remain exact; video-reference inputs stay excluded until their duration-sensitive supplier cost can be bounded safely.

Agents select this operation with tool ID bytedance.seedance-2-5-reference-to-video, then inspect its current executable contract before a run.
