AI-assisted video editing workflows for cutting, structuring, and augmenting real footage. Covers the full pipeline from raw capture through FFmpeg, Remotion, ElevenLabs, fal.ai, and final polish in Descript or CapCut. Use when the user wants to edit video, cut footage, create vlogs, or build video content.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Video Editing
AI-assisted editing for real footage. Not generation from prompts. Editing existing video fast.
## When to Activate
- User wants to edit, cut, or structure video footage
- Turning long recordings into short-form content
- Building vlogs, tutorials, or demo videos from raw capture
- Adding overlays, subtitles, music, or voiceover to existing video
- Reframing video for different platforms (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram)
- User says "edit video", "cut this footage", "make a vlog", or "video workflow"
## Core Thesis
AI video editing is useful when you stop asking it to create the whole video and start using it to compress, structure, and augment real footage. The value is not generation. The value is compression.
## The Pipeline
```
Screen Studio / raw footage
→ Claude / Codex
→ FFmpeg
→ Remotion
→ ElevenLabs / fal.ai
→ Descript or CapCut
```
Each layer has a specific job. Do not skip layers. Do not try to make one tool do everything.
## Layer 1: Capture (Screen Studio / Raw Footage)
Collect the source material:
- **Screen Studio**: polished screen recordings for app demos, coding sessions, browser workflows

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260918.c752aac, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
