Make an MP4 from a JSON scene file with Kinescript (drknowhow/kinescript, the `kine` CLI): text, shapes, charts, SVG, images, video clips, particles and 3D models on cue-based timing, with a checker that lints layout, contrast, reading time and the sound mix, and narration spoken by Kokoro TTS with word-level cues and captions. Covers setup in a Linux container (CPU backend, Python 3.12 venv for Kokoro), the write → voice → check → look → render loop, and controlling Kokoro's pronunciation…
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
# Making videos with Kinescript Kinescript renders a JSON scene to video with Skia and ffmpeg. Layers start and end on cues (`"at": "title.out+0.2"`) rather than on hand-summed seconds, and every frame is a pure function of the scene and the frame number. The `kine` CLI also lints the scene (`check`), draws labelled contact sheets (`look`) and speaks narration (`voice`). Its author is Dimitri (GitHub `drknowhow`). Oskar Austegard, who maintains this skill collection, contributes as a collaborator. Muninn is the name of the Claude agent that works for him. This file was last checked against Kinescript 1.6.1 (2026-11-01), and upstream releases often. **`kine docs` is the authoritative reference for the installed version.** Read it before writing a scene, and don't rely on feature lists remembered from earlier sessions, this file included. ## When NOT to use this skill | Situation | Use instead | |---|---| | Real web UI in a phone frame, arbitrary DOM/CSS layout | `making-remotion-videos` | | AI-generated footage (Veo, Gemini video) | `creating-video` | | Trim, transcode or caption existing footage | `processing-video` | …

How to install
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/making-kinescript-videos@sha256:00ef0111c091d86eThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, 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.
