Hosted MCP remains beta.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Alibaba Wan (Model Studio)\n\n1. Send `X-DashScope-Async: enable` on the create call or it fails, then poll GET /api/v1/tasks/{task_id} about every 15 seconds\n2. Copy the video out within 24 hours. The URL and the task id both expire\n3. Use the host from your workspace and region. A Singapore key won't work on a Beijing host\n4. Don't resubmit a slow job. Poll it. Failed jobs aren't billed, so resubmit only after FAILED\n5. Set `audio` false if you don't want sound. It's on by default for Wan 3.0\n\n### HyperFrames\n\n1. Use the local CLI when project access and repeatable rendering matter.\n2. Preview the composition and check assets before rendering.\n3. Confirm account eligibility and credit cost before using the hosted beta.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Alibaba Wan (Model Studio) or HyperFrames?\n\nAlibaba Wan (Model Studio) scores 65.1 (B) on agent readiness against HyperFrames's 39.1 (E), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Can an agent call Alibaba Wan (Model Studio) and HyperFrames without installing anything?\n\nAlibaba Wan (Model Studio) has a hosted endpoint at https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/api/v1.
