  • A library was processed under the older pipeline and the user wants to bring it onto the contact-sheet-based one
  • SKILL.md covers Step 1 — Pick the library, Step 2 — Confirm with the user, Step 3 — Backup first and Step 4 — Reset, plus 1 more section

What it does

Reprocess With Contact Sheets is an agent skill from barefootford/buttercut. Reset a library's visual analysis (contact sheets, summaries, legacy visualtranscripts) and re-run the current analyze-video pipeline on it. Keeps audio transcripts, cuts, plans, and library metadata. Use when a library was processed under the older pipeline and the user wants to bring it onto the contact-sheet-based one.

Its SKILL.md is about 690 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, covering Transcription. The repository describes itself as: Edit Video with Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • A library was processed under the older pipeline and the user wants to bring it onto the contact-sheet-based one
  • Tasks that involve Transcription

Example prompts

  • “/reprocess-with-contact-sheets”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Pick the library
  2. Confirm with the user
  3. Backup first
  4. Reset
  5. Re-run analysis

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

Reprocess With Contact Sheets loads about 694 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 311 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~89
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~694

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 311 words (~694 tokens).

“Bring a library that was analyzed under the old pipeline (visual_transcripts, no contact sheets) onto the current one (audio transcript + contact sheet + summary). Audio transcripts and any cuts/plans the user has already built are preserved — only the…”
