video-to-skill from brenoepics/video-to-skill is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Convert a video (local file or YouTube/URL) into structured, evidence-grounded knowledge — and ultimately into an installable agent skill. Use when the user provides a video file or video URL and wants it analyzed, summarized into steps, or turned into a skill; triggers include "watch this video", "learn from this tutorial", "video to skill", or a path/URL to .mp4/.mkv/.webm/.mov or youtube.com/youtu.be.
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 to Skill Turn a video into knowledge an agent can act on. A local Rust extractor (`vts-extract`) does the deterministic work — download, transcription, shot detection, keyframes — entirely on the user's machine. You do the intelligence: read the timeline, inspect frames selectively, and produce evidence-grounded output. The video never leaves the machine; only the frames you choose to read enter context. ## Modes - **generate** (default): the skill's purpose. Analyze the video (steps 2-5), then compile, verify, and install a skill package (steps 6). Invoking this skill with just a video means generate. Exception: a non-procedural video (talk with no procedure, vlog) gets the analysis report plus an explanation of why no skill was generated — never fabricated steps. - **analyze**: report only — use when the user asks for an analysis, summary, or report rather than a skill. - **update**: fold a new video into an existing generated skill — see step 7 below. ## 1. Locate the extractor (requires vts-extract 0.3.0) The binary is cached **globally** so every project that carries this skill shares one copy. The cache lives in the app data dir — the same …

How to install
mdr add brenoepics/video-to-skill/video-to-skill@sha256:8ee2538a28fe47ebThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.47a199f, 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.
