Turn an article, news story, report findings, insights, notes or a table into a short explainer video — scene after scene with flat charts, each finding that counts a real thing drawn as that thing for this video (cars, shops, people), 15–60 s, 9:16 for Reels/Shorts/TikTok, 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 — rendered entirely in JavaScript in the same design system as chart-dashboard and social-post, as one standalone HTML file that plays the video and exports it as MP4 in the browser, with every figure and…
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
# Explainer video
Turn content that is already true into a short motion-graphics video: one
self-contained HTML page that plays the video, exports it as MP4 (or WebM)
in the browser that opens it, saves stills, and copies the caption and alt
text. **JavaScript only**: Canvas 2D and the browser's own WebCodecs and Web
Audio. No ffmpeg, Remotion, Playwright render pipeline, text-to-speech, AI
image or video generator, GSAP or CDN library, stock footage or stock music.
`<skill-dir>` below is the directory holding this file
(`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` where the agent expands it). Resolve `templates/`,
`references/`, `scripts/` and `assets/` against it, never against the working
directory.
**The product is the edit, not the renderer.** You write a spec (scenes,
copy, a claims ledger, sources), and the engine renders it. The craft is
choosing which true finding opens the video, giving each scene one idea and
time to read it, and keeping every number and hedge exactly as the source
has it.
## Rules that hold on every video
1. **Never invent a figure that reads as a measurement.** Every number on
screen is a ledger claim with a source and a locator, or is labelled
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add raghuramsirigiri/raghuram-skills/explainer-video@sha256:dda25b05d84317e6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.ca976e3, 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.
