Directs an AI music video or a song-driven promo end to end on varg, the way the most-watched AI music videos are made: measure the song (beat grid, word timings), pitch the concept, cast and lock character references, storyboard every cut on a downbeat, approve stills before paying for video, generate Seedance 2.5 shots, run a mandatory lip-sync pass, draw lyrics and graphics in code, run review rounds and master for each platform. Use when someone asks for a music video, a clip for my song…

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

# Music video director

This skill encodes the workflow that the most-watched AI music videos on X in 2026 actually use (sources at the end): a long slopcore guide written after four viral videos, a character series with a 20M-view video, a Suno → Seedance thread, a Seedance 2.5 reference-bible guide, and a restyle-a-reference-video breakdown.

It is written as a **capability pipeline**. Each step names the capability it needs and the tool that provides it: a varg model or tool where one exists, otherwise an outside tool marked **Outside varg**. **Do not drop a step because varg lacks a tool for it.** Use the outside tool, tell the user what it needs, or stop at that gate.

Generation (images, video, voice, music, lip-sync, transcription, ffmpeg) runs on varg: the varg MCP server (`https://mcp.varg.ai/mcp`) or the `varg-ai` skill (REST at `https://api.varg.ai/v2`). Read `varg-ai` for sign-in and model details.

The agent is the crew; the user is the director. Every phase ends at a gate where the user looks at something and says yes before more credits are spent.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add varghq/skills/varg-music-video@sha256:a43b4ca96caf8c89

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
