Video Editing Skills for AI Agents
Video editing skills cover the stages of post-production: cut and assemble, subtitles, color and look, audio cleanup, motion graphics, and export. These skills are task-oriented, so each one handles a specific step rather than an entire edit. Because post-production is a pipeline, the order in which you load skills matters. Start with the cut, since assembly defines the timeline everything else attaches to. Captions and subtitles come next, then color, then audio cleanup, then motion graphics, and finally export. Use the ranked list to find a skill for the stage you are working on right now. Pick one skill per stage, load it, finish that step, and move to the next. If a skill covers more than one sub-topic, check whether it fits your current stage before adding it.

Don't use for how to perform an individual edit (split, trim, retime, volume, copy, swap): that is `creator-editing-recipes.md` in `/hyperframes-core`.

Frequently asked questions
- Why does the order of these skills matter?
- Post-production is a pipeline: cut, caption, color, clean audio, add graphics, then export. Loading a skill out of order means redoing work when the timeline changes underneath it. Follow the pipeline sequence and finish each stage before starting the next.
- How is the list ranked?
- The list is ranked by observed search demand, with direct matches to the topic placed first. A cap on any single publisher keeps one source from filling the page. Work down the list until you find a skill for the stage you are on.
- Can one skill handle several sub-topics?
- Some skills touch more than one stage, such as a skill that covers both subtitles and export. Check which sub-topics a skill addresses before loading it. If it overlaps your current stage and the next one, it may save you a step.
- What should I do if I only need one stage?
- Load only the skill for that stage instead of working through the whole pipeline. The sub-topics are listed separately so you can jump straight to cut, subtitles, color, audio cleanup, motion graphics, or export. Pick the direct match and ignore the rest.
How to install an Agent Skill
Start with the first skill on this page. Claude Code reads a SKILL.md once it is in the skills directory:
- Claude Code — copy the SKILL.md for video-editing into ~/.claude/skills/video-editing/ for yourself, or .claude/skills/video-editing/ to share it with a project.
- From the registry — run npx skills add affaan-m/ecc@video-editing.
- Or download video-editing from its source and place that SKILL.md in the directory above.
How to choose Check the source and the skill’s own instructions before you install. Official and Notable describe where a skill comes from.
