What it does

Full Transcript is an agent skill from barefootford/buttercut. Exports all dialogue from every clip in a library into a single text file. One clip per block — filename, then its spoken words. Use when the user asks for a "full transcript", "full script", or wants all the dialogue from a library in one place.

Its SKILL.md is about 230 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Media & Creative. The repository describes itself as: Edit Video with Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for a full transcript
  • Wants all the dialogue from a library in one place

Example prompts

  • “full transcript”
  • “full script”
  • “Use the full-transcript skill to export all dialogue from every clip in a library into a single text file”
  • “/full-transcript”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 352c1e0. 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:

    • ruby

    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

Full Transcript loads about 234 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 68 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~234

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 68 words (~234 tokens).

“Exports all spoken dialogue from a library's audio transcripts into a single full_transcript.txt file in the library root.”
