How to use the Seedance Copyright Rewriter agent skill

Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data

The Seedance Copyright Rewriter is an agent skill, a set of instructions that an AI agent loads when it recognises a certain kind of task. This one applies when you write a Seedance 2.0 video prompt that names protected characters, franchises, celebrities, brand logos, songs or real people. After reading this guide you will know what the skill changes, how to install it, how to trigger it, and where its limits are.

Quick start

  1. 1Download the ZIP. Download the skill ZIP from the directory page. It contains SKILL.md.
  2. 2Unzip it into a skills folder. Unzip into ~/.claude/skills/ for all projects, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder for one project.
  3. 3Or upload it in the Claude apps. In the Claude apps, open Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills, and upload the ZIP.
  4. 4Ask for a rewrite in plain language. Paste your Seedance 2.0 prompt and ask the agent to make it safe to generate, mentioning the protected names or logos.
  5. 5Review the output. Read the risk category, the list of changes, the replacement prompt and the authorization note before you generate a clip.

What the skill makes the agent do

When a Seedance 2.0 prompt names protected material, the agent rewrites it. It keeps the scene's mood, genre, camera style and emotional beat, and replaces the protected elements with original characters, generic branding and descriptive style language.

The agent also reports four things: the risk category, what it changed, a safe replacement prompt, and whether you need authorization to use the element you originally asked for. The skill's replacement table covers named characters, studio or creator styles, celebrities and private people, brand logos, songs and voices, and exact scene recreations.

  • Named character or franchise: becomes an original archetype with non-identical costume language.
  • Studio or living-creator style: becomes medium, texture, palette, composition and motion rhythm.
  • Celebrity or private person: becomes an original performer description, or an authorized reference workflow.
  • Brand logo: becomes a generic product mark, a blank label, or a brand you own and have said you are authorized to use.
  • Song or voice: becomes tempo, energy, instrumentation, mood or newly composed sound direction.
  • Exact scene: becomes an original scene with a similar narrative function but different setting and blocking.

How to install the skill

The skill ships as a ZIP file that you download from the directory page. It contains one file, SKILL.md. You can install it in one of two ways.

For Claude Code, unzip the download into your personal skills folder, ~/.claude/skills/, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder if you want the skill available only in that project. In the Claude apps, you can instead upload the ZIP under Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills.

How to trigger the skill with natural requests

You do not need a special command. The skill's description tells the agent to use it when a Seedance 2.0 prompt mentions named characters, franchises, studios, celebrities, public figures, private people, brand logos, copyrighted scenes, songs, voices, or real-person likeness workflows. Describe what you want in ordinary language and mention the Seedance prompt.

Ask for the rewrite directly, or give the agent the original prompt and ask it to make the prompt safe to generate. The skill is meant to run before a prompt is finalised, so ask for the check before you generate a clip.

  • Rewrite this Seedance 2.0 prompt so it doesn't use the superhero or the franchise city.
  • Make this Seedance ad idea safe to generate without using the celebrity's face or name.
  • Check this Seedance 2.0 song-based clip prompt for IP problems and give me a rewrite.
  • I want a scene like this famous film shot. Give me an original version for Seedance 2.0 with the same mood and camera style.

Example: a rewrite that keeps the feel

Suppose your prompt asks for a named superhero swinging through a recognisable franchise city. The skill keeps the action, the rooftop setting and the sense of urgency, but removes the identity. The source gives this safe replacement as an example.

The skill also tells you what to check next. If you own the rights to a brand or likeness and want it used faithfully, the skill keeps those authorized elements but still adds explicit constraints. If authorization is unclear, it asks a short confirmation question or gives you an original rewrite.

What the skill needs and its safety notes

The skill lists no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network, so it only changes the text the agent writes. It also does not decide legal questions: it applies prompt-writing guidelines, and it does not replace a lawyer or give legal clearance.

The skill is designed to discourage workflows that depend on real people's faces or voices without consent. For real human faces, portraits or voices, it asks three questions: does the active surface support the input, does the user have authorization, and does the prompt avoid imitating a public figure or private person without consent. It does not assume rights from an uploaded image, song or video.

  • Runs scripts: no
  • Uses network: no
  • Requires: nothing listed
  • Licence: MIT

Tips for better results

Give the agent the full prompt, not only the protected name. The rewrite depends on the scene's mood, genre, camera style and emotional beat, so those details help the agent keep them.

If you hold the rights to something, say so in the request. The skill does not assume authorization, so a clear statement lets it keep your authorized elements with constraints. Review each replacement prompt before generating, because the skill also lists residual constraints for you to check.

  • Name the mood and camera style you want, even if you drop the original reference.
  • Ask for the risk category and the list of changes so you can see what was replaced.
  • Keep the replacement prompt and the constraints together when you save a prompt for your team.

What people use it for

  • Rewriting a Seedance 2.0 action scene that names a film franchise into an original character with the same genre and camera style.
  • Turning a celebrity-endorsement ad idea into an original performer description so the ad does not imitate a known person.
  • Replacing a brand logo in a product clip with a generic product mark or blank label.
  • Converting a request to match a famous song into a description of tempo, energy and instrumentation.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Seedance copyright agent skill?

Download the skill ZIP from the directory page and unzip it into ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder. In the Claude apps you can instead upload the ZIP under Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills.

Is the Seedance Copyright Rewriter skill free?

The skill is licensed under MIT, as stated in its SKILL.md file. The source does not list a price, so check the directory page for any cost details before you rely on it.

Does the skill need any special requirements?

The skill lists no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network, so it only changes the text the agent produces.

Does this skill give me legal clearance to use a character or celebrity?

No. The skill applies prompt-writing guidelines and asks you to confirm authorization, but it does not give legal clearance and does not replace a lawyer for copyright or publicity rights questions.

What should I do if the skill does not trigger?

Check that the ZIP was unzipped into one of the two supported locations, or uploaded under Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills. Then mention the Seedance 2.0 prompt and the protected element directly in your request.

Are there alternatives, and how does it compare?

The source does not compare this skill with other tools. You can write rewrites by hand using the skill's replacement table, which maps each risk type to an original archetype, a style description, a generic mark or a newly composed sound direction.

Our verdict

This skill suits creators, marketers and teams who make Seedance 2.0 prompts and want a consistent check for protected characters, celebrities, logos and songs before they generate clips. It is not the right choice if you already own the characters, brands or likenesses and need faithful reproduction, since it replaces protected identity by default, or if you need legal advice on copyright or publicity rights.
