Writes the motion prompt for a video clip — what moves, how the camera behaves, the physics and the audio, in the shape the chosen model wants. Works from a brief alone, from a start frame, from a source video, or from a storyboard sheet where each panel becomes a cut. Handles one clip or a whole set, returning one prompt per clip. Nothing is generated here. Use when a clip's model, duration and content are settled and it needs the prompt written.

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

# Clip prompts

Turn a clip into a prompt its video model will honour. **Text only — nothing is generated here.**

**A video may be one clip or several.** Write a prompt for every clip in it, then hand them all back
together. Clips in one video share a model, an aspect ratio and a look.

Write only what the clip actually has. No person on camera means no performance direction, no product
means no product rules, no speech means no dialogue.

## Workflow

### Step 1: Read what the clip has

Ask only for what would change the prompt and can't be defaulted.

- **The model and the duration.** Where no model was named, use `seedance-2.0-fast` and say so. The
  aspect ratio is a call parameter rather than prompt text — carry it if it was given, don't ask.
- **What happens in the clip** — as beats, or as a single action.
- **The media, and what each one is for** — a storyboard sheet, a start frame, an end frame,
  reference images, a source video, an audio track. **Any of them may be absent**, and they differ from
  clip to clip.
- **The dialog segment**, where anyone speaks, and whether they are on camera or heard over the
  picture.

### Step 2: Pick the clip's form

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add supercmohq/supercmo-skills/writing-video-prompts@sha256:16c401b6c2d4c438

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.6.0, 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.
