What it does

Video Workflow is an agent skill from ArcReel/ArcReel. 当用户要求创建视频、新建或继续项目、推进下一步、检查进度、完成或导出时,编排 ArcReel 视频项目。用于端到端工作流请求,不用于仅编辑某个现有产物。

Its SKILL.md is about 430 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/generation-modes.md`, `references/generation-results.md` and `references/plan-safety.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering AI video generation. The repository describes itself as: AI Agent 驱动的开源可自部署视频工作台:将小说与剧本转为角色、场景、道具资产、分镜、视频和剪映草稿,支持跨镜头一致性、多供应商与费用追踪 | Self-hosted AI video workspace for stories, storyboards and short-form video production. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

Workflow steps

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

  1. 使用 ArcReel 项目工具确定项目。尚无项目时,先收集创建所需信息并创建项目。
  2. 为该项目调用 get_workflow_plan。仅在用户已选定分集时传入 episode_id:项目详情 episodes[] 的排列即播出顺序,按用户说的第几集或标题找到那一集,传它的 episode 字段(集…
  3. 用户只要求检查进度或了解下一步时,报告计划中的内容现状(status.content)、问题和 next_action,不修改项目。
  4. 用户要求推进时,依据 workflow_plan.next_action 路由并执行该动作;next_alternatives 非空表示分岔,列出并列选项由用户选定。按需向对应的 ArcReel 工具传入 project、next_action.args、target…
  5. 用户点名一个操作时,看 status.operations 中该操作的准入:admitted 就执行,不必等它成为下一步;refused 时把 reason 转述给用户并说明怎样补上。工具入口以同一判定拒绝时返回 operation_not_admitted,其…
  6. 动作需要用户选择或确认时,说明影响并等待明确同意。blockers 非空时展示阻断原因并停止修改项目。next_action.type 为 create_edit_timeline 时,调用 create_timeline(episode 取…
  7. 生成动作返回 generation_batch 时,保留 batch_id,并按每次返回的 poll_after_seconds 调用 get_generation_batch,直到结果为 done: true。之后再调用 get_workflow_plan,按新的…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dec992c. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Video Workflow loads about 433 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 23 tokens; SKILL.md has 97 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~23
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~433
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.2k

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.

ArcReel 视频工作流

以已连接的 ArcReel MCP 服务作为项目状态的唯一来源。每次项目级工具调用都必须显式指定项目,不依赖本地项目文件或 Agent 宿主的工作目录。

按计划路由

  1. 使用 ArcReel 项目工具确定项目。尚无项目时,先收集创建所需信息并创建项目。
  2. 为该项目调用 get_workflow_plan。仅在用户已选定分集时传入 episode_id:项目详情 episodes[] 的排列即播出顺序,按用户说的第几集或标题找到那一集,传它的 episode 字段(集 ID,不是第几集)。对用户称呼一集用播出位置与标题。保留计划返回或要求的、仍然有效的临时选择。
  3. 用户只要求检查进度或了解下一步时,报告计划中的内容现状(status.content)、问题和 next_action,不修改项目。
  4. 用户要求推进时,依据 workflow_plan.next_action 路由并执行该动作;next_alternatives 非空表示分岔,列出并列选项由用户选定。按需向对应的 ArcReel 工具传入 project、next_action.args、target 字段和非空 requested_ids。
  5. 用户点名一个操作时,看 status.operations 中该操作的准入:admitted 就执行,不必等它成为下一步;refused 时把 reason 转述给用户并说明怎样补上。工具入口以同一判定拒绝时返回 operation_not_admitted,其 params.reason 与计划一致。operations 只陈述列出的操作;生成类入口沿用各入口的准入判定(ADR 0073),被拒时转述入口返回的理由。
  6. 动作需要用户选择或确认时,说明影响并等待明确同意。blockers 非空时展示阻断原因并停止修改项目。next_action.type 为 create_edit_timeline 时,调用 create_timeline(episode 取 next_action.args.episode_id,from 传 script)为该集新建剪辑时间线;为 none 且计划 steps 中 edit 为 completed 时,说明工作流已走完;其余 none 而没有阻断的情况,报告 status.issues。
  7. 生成动作返回 generation_batch 时,保留 batch_id,并按每次返回的 poll_after_seconds 调用 get_generation_batch,直到结果为 done: true。之后再调用 get_workflow_plan,按新的 next_action 路由。计划因已有任务返回 wait_for_task 时,等待其 poll_after_seconds 后再次调用 get_workflow_plan,最多执行 max_poll_attempts 次;达到上限后相同任务仍在运行,则报告其 task_ids 并停止。其他动作完成后直接刷新计划。

仅在主题适用时读取对应参考:

  • 遇到阻断、临时选择、计费动作或过期产物时,读取计划安全与确认。
  • 解释不同模式的结构或引用时,读取内容与生成模式。
  • 选择 ID,或报告批次结果、任务、供应商提交和产物状态时,读取生成结果。
