Hosted MCP remains beta.\n\n**Seedance on BytePlus ModelArk.** The video task API documents limits, error codes and per-model parameters in detail, with callbacks, a filterable task list and API keys restrictable by model and IP address. No status page, OpenAPI file or free video quota was found, the newest models need a USD 30 balance, and BytePlus model services are not sold in the United States.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Seedance on BytePlus ModelArk\n\n1. POST to `/api/v3/contents/generations/tasks` on ark.ap-southeast.bytepluses.com, then poll GET `/contents/generations/tasks/{id}` or pass `callback_url`. Callbacks need an answer within 5 seconds\n2. Download the result at once. Video URLs last 24 hours, task records 7 days, and a Seedance 2.5 URL allows 100 downloads\n3. Pass `resolution`, `ratio` and `duration` in the request body. Parameters appended to the prompt as `--rs` or `--dur` are weakly validated and may be ignored\n4. On Seedance 2.5 set `omni_reference_task_type` to `edit` or `extend` so constraint errors arrive at submission. With `auto` they arrive after the task leaves the queue\n5. Do not send reference images or video with real human faces to Seedance 2.5 or 2.0. Only a queued task can be cancelled with DELETE\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, HyperFrames or Seedance on BytePlus ModelArk?\n\nSeedance on BytePlus ModelArk scores 59.3 (C) on agent readiness against HyperFrames's 39.1 (E), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Can an agent call HyperFrames and Seedance on BytePlus ModelArk without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for HyperFrames.
