TikTok & Reels Content
Short-form vertical video dominates social media. TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts all require 9:16 portrait content that grabs attention in the first second. With agent-media CLI, you can generate scroll-stopping short-form videos directly from your terminal — no video editor, no stock footage library, no browser tabs. Pick a model, write a prompt, and publish.

The workflow
Install and authenticate
Install the CLI globally and log in with your agent-media account. This takes under 30 seconds and gives you access to all capabilities.
npm install -g agent-media-cli && agent-media login
Generate a portrait video
Use the --aspect-ratio 9:16 flag to produce vertical video sized for TikTok and Reels. The --sync flag waits for the result and downloads it automatically.
agent-media generate video -p "Person unboxing a mystery package, excited reaction" --aspect-ratio 9:16 --sync
Batch-generate variations
Loop through multiple prompts in your shell to produce several variations at once. Drop the --sync flag to queue jobs in parallel, then check results with agent-media jobs list.
for i in 1 2 3; do agent-media generate video -p "Prompt variation $i" --aspect-ratio 9:16; done
