Create programmatic videos with Remotion and React. An agent skill from anolilab/lunora.

  • Works in 4 steps: Define compositions in src/Root.tsx —… → Build components using useCurrentFrame()… → Preview with npx remotion studio → …
  • The user mentions Remotion
  • SKILL.md covers When to use, Quick start, Core workflow and New project setup, plus 26 more sections
  • Calls npx; reaches remotion.media

What it does

Remotion Best Practices is an agent skill from anolilab/lunora. Create programmatic videos with Remotion and React. Build animated compositions, render to MP4/WebM, configure frame rates and resolutions, add captions/subtitles, embed audio/video, and create text animations, transitions, and data visualizations. Use when the user mentions Remotion, programmatic video creation, React-based video rendering, or needs to build video from code.

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 40 other files (for example `rules/3d.md`, `rules/audio-visualization.md` and `rules/audio.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Video production and Transcription. It works with Remotion and React. The repository describes itself as: Type-safe, real-time backend framework on your own Cloudflare account — Workers, Durable Objects, D1, R2, Queues. Convex-style DX, Vite-first.

When your agent uses it

  • The user mentions Remotion
  • Programmatic video creation
  • React-based video rendering
  • Needs to build video from code

Example prompts

  • “/remotion-best-practices”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Define compositions in src/Root.tsx — set dimensions, fps, and duration
  2. Build components using useCurrentFrame() and interpolate() for all animations (CSS animations are forbidden)
  3. Preview with npx remotion studio
  4. Render with npx remotion render

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3650b5e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • remotion.media

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Remotion Best Practices loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 101 tokens; SKILL.md has 818 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~101
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 818 words (~2,959 tokens).

“Use this skill when working with Remotion code — creating video compositions, rendering animations, embedding media, adding captions, or building any programmatic video pipeline in React.”
