What it does

Once installed, the agent can plan and build cinematic product promo videos, using real screenshots of a web or desktop app, a library of 124 reusable camera-motion shot cards, and a finished template. It can also find, add, replace and time sound effects for an existing video, including searching Freesound for candidate clips. The skill supplies a multi-stage workflow and quality checks, and asks the user to choose between template, free-creation or guided-creation modes before producing.

Great for

  • Founders or indie developers who want a polished promo video of their web app
  • Video editors who want to reuse specific motion effects from the shot card gallery
  • Creators who need sound effects matched to an existing product video

Skip it if

  • Users without Node.js and a video rendering setup, since the workflow relies on Remotion and ffmpeg and will not run as a plain text task
  • Projects with confidential or customer data shown on screen, because the skill asks for real pages and captures and risks exposing sensitive content
  • Anyone expecting a quick one-click video with no review, since the workflow is multi-stage and includes checkpoints

Try asking

  • “Make a 30-second promo video for my web app using real screenshots of its dashboard”
  • “Use the deck-deal-flyin and row-embed shot cards for this product video”
  • “Search Freesound for a whoosh sound effect that matches this card transition, candidates only”
  • “Align the sound effects in my existing product video to its beat”

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Pick a mode (template, autonomous or guided) before starting, so the agent does not stop to ask later
  • Use fictional or redacted data in any page you capture, since public demo data is only kept after explicit approval
  • Browse the online gallery at the project site to choose shot cards before asking for a video
