Conversation-driven video editing skill for agentic workflows. Use when the user wants an agent to take raw footage or multiple source clips and turn them into an edited video by reasoning from transcripts plus on-demand visual drill-downs: trimming filler words, selecting best takes, assembling multi-clip edits, colour grading, burning subtitles, adding overlay animations, and rendering preview/final outputs. Prefer this over narrower FFmpeg-only editing skills when the user wants a full…
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 Use ## Principle 1. **LLM reasons from raw transcript + on-demand visuals.** The only derived artifact that earns its keep is a packed phrase-level transcript (`takes_packed.md`). Everything else — filler tagging, retake detection, shot classification, emphasis scoring — you derive at decision time. 2. **Audio is primary, visuals follow.** Cut candidates come from speech boundaries and silence gaps. Drill into visuals only at decision points. 3. **Ask → confirm → execute → iterate → persist.** Never touch the cut until the user has confirmed the strategy in plain English. 4. **Generalize.** Do not assume what kind of video this is. Look at the material, ask the user, then edit. 5. **Artistic freedom is the default.** Every specific value, preset, font, color, duration, pitch structure, and technique in this document is a *worked example* from one proven video — not a mandate. Read them to understand what's possible and why each worked. Then make your own taste calls based on what the material actually is and what the user actually wants. **The only things you MUST do are in the Hard Rules section below.** Everything else is yours. …

How to install
mdr add valtterimelkko/agent-workflow-skills/video-use@sha256:357ec49c77c61ef2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260611.919d9c9, 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.
