# Clone ad — Seedance 2.0
Clone an existing video ad for a different product. You analyze the source frame by frame,
transcribe the dialogue, extract the visual style and beat structure, then generate a new
`seedance-2.0` video adapted for the user's product.
**How this differs from analyze-video:**
- **analyze-video** → the output is a reusable markdown formula saved to `prompt-library/`.
- **clone-video-ad** → the output is a rendered video delivered to the user.
Steps 1 to 3 are the same analysis in both. The only charge in that half is the transcript
in step 2 — a fraction of a credit, and free on a re-read of the same source. Everything
from step 9 on is the real spend.
## If `shared/` is missing from disk
`references/solo-install.md` — what a solo install lacks (`craft.md`, `caption-video`, the
b-roll scripts, `check-novoads-env.sh`, `MASTER_CONTEXT.md`) and how to fetch each. Skip it
inside the full pack.
## Read order
This skill links outward more than any other here, and its two biggest targets fan out again
(22 and 10 further links). **A file reached through another file gets skimmed, not read**, so
open these four directly, in order. Everything else is lookup.
1. **This file** — workflow, gates, the constraints that bite.
2. `../novoads-api/prompting/prompt-library/seedance-2.md` — fields, grid, prompt craft, what
the estimate flags. Before composing a prompt, not when one fails.
3. **One** formula matched to the source, not all: `seedance-2-ugc.md` tal
