-The following request predicts a 16-step action chunk from one observation. The chunk length is `num_frames - 1`, and the completed job's `action` field contains the tensor data, shape, mode, and active action dimension.
+`policy` and `inverse_dynamics` return actions, so their canonical API is the synchronous `/v1/actions/generations` endpoint. The following request predicts a 16-step action chunk from one observation image. `action_horizon=16` maps to the model's `num_frames=17` convention.

-The other action modes are `forward_dynamics` (condition on an observation and an `action` JSON array to generate video) and `inverse_dynamics` (condition on a full video to predict action). Select the embodiment head with `domain_name` or `domain_id`; set `raw_action_dim` explicitly when it cannot be inferred from the domain name.
+Use `GET /v1/actions/metadata` to inspect the action modes, default horizon, padded action dimension, and accepted observation modalities. Msgpack requests and the `/v1/actions/realtime` websocket use the same action envelope.
+
+`inverse_dynamics` also uses `/v1/actions/generations`; set `action_mode="inverse_dynamics"` and pass an observation video URL or server-local path as `input.observation.video`. Select the embodiment head with `domain_name` or `domain_id`; set `raw_action_dim` explicitly when it cannot be inferred from the domain name.
+
+`forward_dynamics` is intentionally different: it consumes an action array and predicts video, so it remains on `/v1/videos`. Action-producing modes submitted to `/v1/videos` return HTTP 400 with the canonical action endpoint in the error message.
