It is fifteen days old, called beta, and its Claude Code install command names a plugin directory entry that was not found on 20 October 2026.\n\n**Replicate video models.** One bearer token reaches more than twenty official video models at published per-second prices, each with a typed input schema, and failed runs aren't charged. Tokens have no scopes or spend cap, no SLA is published, and the terms let Replicate withdraw any model without notice.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### framefields\n\n1. Add the plugin with `/plugin marketplace add gatewai-dev/framefields` first; the official-directory install was not found on 20 October 2026.\n2. Approve only the skia-canvas install script, as the getting-started page shows, or imports fail with a missing `skia.node`.\n3. Check with `comp.lint()` and `renderFrameGrid` before a full `renderVideo` encode.\n4. Call `process.exit()` after rendering; native GPU threads keep the script alive.\n5. Preload vision models into `FRAMEFIELDS_MODELS_DIR` for offline or CI renders.\n\n### Replicate video models\n\n1. Call official models at `POST /v1/models/{owner}/{name}/predictions` with no version, then poll `GET /v1/predictions/{id}` or pass `webhook`. Video jobs usually outlast the 60-second `Prefer: wait` window\n2. Download the output file within the hour. API predictions lose inputs, outputs and logs after 60 minutes\n3. Read the model's price tiers before setting `resolution`, `mode` or `generate_audio`. Kling 3.0 runs from $0.168 to $0.42 a second and Veo 3.1 doubles with audio\n4. Send `Cancel-After` on every create. There is no idempotency key, so a blind retry is a second paid video\n5. Keep credit above $20 or enable auto-reload. Low balances are throttled, and granted credit with no card is held to 6 requests a minute\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, framefields or Replicate video models?\n\nReplicate video models and framefields score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 62.1 (B) and 61.3 (C). framefields leads on payments \u0026 pricing and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Are framefields and Replicate video models open source?\n\nframefields is open source (Apache-2.0).
