What it does
reelbench-skills is a pair of skills for dissecting and assembling video through an AI agent. The video-shots skill breaks a finished clip into a per-shot table: duration, shot size, category, camera motion, content and pace, with ffmpeg measuring cut points and length while the model decides only what it should. The video-sync skill renders video where shot information runs beside the picture, the table scrolls and highlights the current shot. The report is a self-contained interactive page with a built-in player, and it needs no npm dependencies or keys.
Who it is for. For editors, video creators and designers who study clips shot by shot.
Good fit when
- You need to break a clip into shots with duration and shot type
- You need an interactive per-shot report with a built-in player
- You need to render video with a storyboard overlay
Not a fit when
- You do not have ffmpeg and Node.js installed
- You need video generation rather than analysis and assembly
Example request
Break this clip into shots and build an interactive report with a table of shot sizes and paceLimitations
It needs Node.js 18 or later and ffmpeg with ffprobe. The skills run against the current agent session's quota, with no external API. The main README is in Chinese, with an English README.en.md.
How to disable. Run ./scripts/install.sh --uninstall to remove the symlinks, or delete the skill folders from the agent's directory.
FAQ
Are API keys needed?
No. The skills run with no external API and no npm dependencies, only node and ffmpeg, against the session quota.
Can I install one skill?
Yes. ./scripts/install.sh video-shots installs just that one; the skills are self-contained and you can also copy the folder.
