Give Claude Code your raw clips and a reference you like. Get back a finished, captioned video.
This is a ready-to-install skill for Claude Code. Drop your clips in a folder, point at a reel you like, and say: "Make a 30 second reel like this, captions on." Claude studies the reference, transcribes your footage, shows you an edit plan, and after your OK renders the MP4 on your computer, checks it, and hands it over with a thumbnail and a post caption.
What it does
- Studies your reference: cut pace, hook, caption look and framing, then matches it
- Cuts pauses, "um", repeated takes and false starts on word boundaries
- Opens with your strongest line and a bold hook on screen
- Word-by-word captions in 5 styles, in your brand colours and font, in sync after every cut
- B-roll over your voice, punch-in zooms, photo motion, crossfades, titles and call-to-action text
- Music that dips under your voice, loudness set for Instagram, TikTok and YouTube
- Vertical, square, portrait or landscape, with a fast preview before the final
- Checks its own work: size, length, loudness, black frames, silent gaps, cut words, captions too fast to read
- Optional: generates missing images in your ChatGPT and video clips in your Google Flow through your own Chrome, only after you approve each one
You approve the plan first. Nothing is generated or rendered until you say yes. Revisions are plain words: "tighter", "the start is weak", "music too loud", "square for LinkedIn too".
Install in two minutes. Double-click the installer on Mac, or run one command on Mac or Linux. It installs the free tools it needs (ffmpeg and a speech-to-text engine that runs on your computer) after you agree.
Requirements: Claude Code (Pro or Max plan is enough). Mac tested; Linux works; Windows through WSL. About 1 GB of disk. For AI shots only: Chrome with the Claude in Chrome extension, and your own ChatGPT and Google Flow accounts (uses your own credits).
Private by default. Your videos stay on your computer, your originals are never changed, and the skill never signs in or buys anything in your accounts. It makes a new MP4; it is not a timeline app and does not colour grade or remove backgrounds.
