Make a finished social video (YouTube Short, Instagram Reel or YouTube long-form) for $0 with Remotion and local AI tools, from a one-line idea to a checked MP4. It covers script writing, voices (Chatterbox, with optional cloning of your own voice), word-synced captions (Whisper), music and SFX written as code (FluidSynth), rendering and an automatic QA gate. Use when the user asks to make, create or generate a video, reel, short, story or explainer, to turn a topic, script or data into a…
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
# make-video Turns an idea into a rendered, checked MP4 using only free, local tools. A project made from this skill has its own rules in `AGENTS.md`, so follow them (animation purity, `useScale`, `sec()`, folder layout). ## 0. Set up a video project (once) If the current folder has no `tools/make-story.sh`, it isn't a video project yet: 1. **Check the machine** before anything else: `uname -sm` (needs Darwin arm64), `node --version` (20+), `brew --version`, `df -h ~` (about 8 GB free). On another OS, say what won't work (Chatterbox and the take checker run on the Apple GPU) before going further. If Node or Homebrew is missing, give the user the one install command and wait. 2. **Tell the user what will be downloaded, and wait for their OK.** Never start the downloads without it. Show this table (all free, from the official sources): | Download | Size | Used for | Where it goes | |---|---|---|---| | npm packages (Remotion etc.) | ~500 MB | rendering | `node_modules/` | | ffmpeg, uv, FluidSynth (Homebrew, only if missing) | ~150 MB | audio/video tools | Homebrew | | Python packages (PyTorch, Chatterbox…) | ~1.5 GB | voice, QA | `.venv/` | …

How to install
mdr add thenoumandev/zero-dollar-studio/make-video@sha256:824b73e09c9898a8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.b4560b7, 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.
