What it does
The Remotion plugin bundles skills for creating programmatic videos with React in Claude Code. The root skill `remotion-best-practices` acts as a router and loads the right section for the task: creating a new video and project, markup, interactivity in Studio, captions, maps, multimedia, rendering, SaaS scenarios, version upgrades, licensing and docs. The skill rules set the working order. The agent does not overwrite user edits made outside the conversation. For a new video it starts Remotion Studio (`npx remotion studio`) and opens the preview in a browser before building the composition, and renders (`npx remotion render`) only on an explicit request such as "render the video" or "give me the MP4". The plugin manifest is named `remotion`, version 4.0.543, MIT license.
Who it is for. React developers and video makers who build clips in code and want Claude Code to follow Remotion guidance.
Good fit when
- A new Remotion video and project must be created from scratch with an immediate preview.
- Captions are added to a clip: SRT import, transcription and on-screen display.
- An animated route on a map or a geographic explainer is built in a composition.
- A project is moved to a new Remotion version and the license is checked.
Not a fit when
- You edit video in a regular editor: Remotion describes clips as React code.
- You want rendering by default without being asked: the skill renders only on an explicit request.
- You use Cursor or another agent without Claude Code plugin support: the standalone Remotion skills fit instead.
Example request
Create a new Remotion video with a title and a logo animation, start Studio and open the preview, but do not render anything yet.Limitations
The repository README is currently a stub: "an internal package with no documentation", so the description relies on the `SKILL.md` files and manifests. The plugin covers only Remotion scenarios and requires Node.js and a Remotion project. Commercial use of Remotion has a separate license, covered by the `remotion-license` section. Video rendering loads the CPU, and the skill starts it only on an explicit request. The preview runs in Remotion Studio on a local address.
How to disable. Run `/plugin uninstall remotion@remotion` and remove the marketplace from the source list if you like.
FAQ
How do I install the plugin?
Run `/plugin marketplace add remotion-dev/claude-code-plugin`, then `/plugin install remotion@remotion`. The names come from the repository manifest.
Does the skill render videos on its own?
No. It renders only on a direct request ("render the video", "export", "give me the MP4") and by default opens a preview in Studio.
How do I open the preview?
Run `npx remotion studio`. If the agent works in an app with an in-app browser, use `npx remotion studio --no-open` and open the printed URL.
Which topics does the plugin cover?
Creating videos and projects, markup, interactivity, captions, maps, multimedia, rendering, Studio, SaaS, upgrades, licensing and docs.
How does the plugin differ from standalone Remotion skills?
The same material is packaged as a Claude Code plugin with a manifest and marketplace, so it installs and updates through `/plugin` commands.

README in short
The README text is a single "Usage" heading and a phrase about an internal package with no documentation, so plugin details come from `plugin.json`, `marketplace.json` and `SKILL.md`.
