# Skill: effect/neon-icons — "אייקוני ניאון" (Neon line icons)

Glowing outline icons pop in one after another — or draw themselves line by line.
אייקוני קו זוהרים קופצים אחד אחרי השני — או מציירים את עצמם קו אחרי קו.

Price: **60 credits per finished minute**: the render itself — 1 credit per second of 1080p output. Combined with captions, a hook or other effects: still one render, nothing more for combining.

Send `X-Tag: <job name>` on every call of one video; `GET /v1/usage?tag=<job name>` returns what it cost.

## 1. On its own — one call

```jsonc
POST /v1/effects/neon-icons             // x-wait-ms: 110000
{
  "video_url": "https://media.gpt.org.il/samples/sample-he.mp4",
  "start": 0.3,
  "duration": 3.6,
  "params": {
    "backdrop": "panel",
    "stagger_ms": 380
  }
}
```

A normal render: `status: processing` → poll `GET /v1/executions/{id}` until `completed`, then read `output.url`.

When it plays: a stretch: `start` + `duration` (seconds of the finished video), or `at` (a word id) + `duration`, or `during` { from, to } (word ids).

## 2. With captions, a hook and other effects — the same render

```jsonc
POST /v1/studio/edit               // x-wait-ms: 110000
{
  "video_url": "<the video>",
  "language_code": "he",
  "captions": {
    "style": "classic"
  },
  "effects": [
    {
      "id": "neon-icons",
      "params": {
        "backdrop": "panel",
        "stagger_ms": 380
      },
      "start": 0.3,
      "duration": 3.6
    }
  ],
  "audio": {
    "normalize": true
  },
  "output": {
    "aspect_ratio": "9:16",
    "resolution": "1080",
    "fit": "crop",
    "quality": "high"
  }
}
```

`effects` is a list: add more entries for more effects. The engine applies them by pipeline stage (cuts and time →
camera → grade and looks → overlays → text and captions → sound), never by their order in the list. An edit has one
`transition`, one `color` grade, one `music` bed, one `speed` and one caption style: two effects that set the same
one are refused with a message that names them.

## 3. Params

| param | default | range / options | what it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| `items` | `[{"icon":"chat","x":80,"y":12,"size":11},{"icon":"chat","x":80,"y":23,"size":11},{"icon":"chat","x":80,"y":34,"size":11},{"icon":"play","x":34,"y":23,"size":30}]` | list | The icons, in the order they appear |
| `mode` | `"pop"` | `pop` · `draw` | pop = grow in with a little overshoot · draw = the lines draw themselves |
| `pop_ms` | `120` | 40–800 | pop: how long it takes, ms |
| `draw_ms` | `420` | 60–3000 | draw: how long it takes, ms |
| `stagger_ms` | `300` | 0–3000 | Between one icon and the next (items without a word), ms |
| `stroke_color` | `"#8DC4D9"` | string | The line colour |
| `stroke` | `1.6` | 0.5–4 | Line weight in the icon's 24-unit grid (2 = a standard outline icon) |
| `glow` | `6` | 0–20 | A soft glow round the lines, px at 1080 wide (0 = none) |
| `backdrop` | `"none"` | `none` · `panel` · `full` | A dark motion-graphics plate behind the icons: a panel across the top, the whole frame, or none (over the video) |
| `backdrop_height` | `48` | 20–100 | panel: its height, % of the frame |

GET `/v1/effects/neon-icons` returns the same as JSON (with the full body schema). Every field has a default; numbers
outside their range are refused with the field's name.
