promptoptimizer
boolean Default: false

Controls whether the input prompt is automatically optimized and refined to improve generation quality. When enabled, the system analyzes and enhances the prompt by adding relevant details, improving clarity, and optimizing structure for better video generation results.

The prompt optimizer can help transform simple or basic prompts into more detailed and effective instructions, potentially leading to higher-quality video outputs with better adherence to the intended creative vision.

When disabled, the original prompt is used as-is without any modifications or enhancements.

When prompt enhancement is enabled, reproducibility is not guaranteed even when using the same seed value. The enhancement process may introduce variability that affects the deterministic nature of generation.
