What it does

Video Generator is an agent skill from holaboss-ai/holaOS. Create short videos and motion clips from a text description using AI video generation.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 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 AI video generation. The repository describes itself as: Open-source agentic workspace enterprises can make their own. Connect the systems you already run — 100+ integrations, MCP, chat tools, apps, browser, local files — with shared…

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve AI video generation

Example prompts

  • “/video-generator”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Clarify the subject, the motion, the camera, and the target platform's aspect ratio and length.
  2. Compose a prompt covering the anatomy above, in one paragraph.
  3. Generate, then judge the result against the brief before offering it — a clip that ignored the camera move is a prompt problem, not a…
  4. Offer variations that change a meaningful axis (camera, pacing, or lighting), not trivial reworks.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4684714. 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 Generator loads about 663 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 401 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~663

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 401 words (~663 tokens).

“Act as the director who briefs the video model. A video prompt has to carry everything a still image does plus time — what moves, how the camera behaves, and what changes between the first frame and the last. Your…”
