Write, rewrite, or review short-form video openings using Kallaway's visual-first layered hook method; use for scripts and first-frame storyboards that need clear topic, aligned text and speech, credible contrast, and an immediate payoff.
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
# Kallaway Layered Hook Based on Kallaway's public method. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Kallaway. Produce a filmable hook storyboard that makes the intended viewer understand the topic and want the next beat. Build the opening around one key visual, then align the overlay, spoken words, and sound around the same idea. Curiosity comes from the gap between the viewer's expected reality and the alternative the video can actually demonstrate. [S1][S3] ## When to use Use for the opening seconds of a Reel, TikTok, YouTube Short, LinkedIn video, short-form script, or first-frame storyboard. Apply the same loop when diagnosing an existing opening. Keep the user's audience, voice, format, and available footage as constraints. If the request covers only a hook, include enough of the next beat to demonstrate its payoff without expanding into a complete video production. …

How to install
mdr add getedgehq/skills/kallaway-layered-hook@sha256:79f44a9fbc8f8da6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.d5668a9, 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.
