long-video-to-shorts skillA
long-video-to-shorts is agent-read markdown (skill) from 0xsline/openchatcut: Cut one long podcast, interview, course, livestream, or other source video into social-ready shorts, reels, highlights, or clip timelines from existing project media. Use when the user asks to cut a long video into Shorts, Reels, TikToks, Xiaohongshu posts, best moments, highlights, or multiple clips..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified before it reaches your agent: the main file against the SHA-256 recorded here, the others against the git hashes of its source commit. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Long Video to Shorts Use this workflow when one long source video carries the output. Supporting clips may exist, but the short-form story comes from selecting self-contained moments inside the long source. This is a OpenChatCut-native workflow. Use the current project, assets, transcript, timeline, and OpenChatCut editing tools. Do not depend on external download, transcription, ffmpeg, or auto-crop pipelines unless the user explicitly asks for an external source that is not already in the project. ## Workflow 1. Read the project state before editing. Identify the primary long video, duration, language, speakers, current timeline, transcript readiness, visual descriptions, and aspect ratio. 2. Confirm that one long source carries the output. If the project is mainly multiple raw clips with no dominant long source, switch to the Multi Clips to Reels workflow. 3. Determine only missing constraints that would change the edit: platform, clip count, target duration, audience, style, captions/title text, music, and whether the user wants options or direct creation. …

How to install
mdr add 0xsline/openchatcut/long-video-to-shorts@git:20260801.23ff26cmdr add 0xsline/openchatcut/long-video-to-shorts@sha256:a7c75d4016f245c8Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 for exact bytes. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install fetches those bytes again and checks them, so it installs them exactly or fails.
