Video Generation & Editing

Bailian CLI command reference for video generation, reference-to-video, and video editing.

A single command invokes Bailian's video generation and editing capabilities from the terminal.
Append --help to any command for full parameter details, e.g. bl video generate --help. Every parameter that accepts a file URL also accepts a local path — the CLI auto-uploads it to temporary storage (valid for 48 hours), so you never need to host files as URLs yourself.
