Turns an idea or script into a branded MP4 by routing each scene to HyperFrames, Lottie, Manim or GSAP, wrapping it in one brand frame file, then checking and rendering.

  • Making a promo, explainer or social reel as a branded video
  • SKILL.md covers The one law (decides everything), Route each beat to an engine, Workflow and Prerequisites (check first;…, plus 2 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls npx

What it does

The agent decides what each beat needs, routes it to an engine, composes everything into one HyperFrames composition, applies the YUV.AI Neon Phoenix brand through a frame.md file and renders MP4 output after a self-check. HyperFrames renders by seeking each frame in headless Chrome and passing it to FFmpeg, so the same input gives the same output. That drives one rule: anything seekable runs live inside the render as an adapter (GSAP, Lottie, Three.js or a canvas) and must be clock-driven, while anything else is pre-rendered first and imported as a clip.

ManimCE, which explains math, neural networks and concepts, is always a pre-rendered clip, Lottie handles designed brand motion such as logo stings and stat reveals, and GSAP is the default for text and motion. A transcribe-then-approve flow covers captions, formats include 16:9 and 9:16, and reference files for each engine load only when needed. The folder holds a frame template, Lottie files, generator scripts for explainers, news templates and music beds, and a Hebrew font fetch script.

When your agent uses it

  • Making a promo, explainer or social reel as a branded video
  • Explaining a neural network or math concept with an animation
  • Producing captioned tutorial videos in 16:9 or 9:16

Example prompts

  • “Make a 9:16 teaser explaining how a neural network learns, in the brand style.”
  • “Turn this script into a captioned 16:9 launch video.”

Requirements

  • HyperFrames with headless Chrome and FFmpeg
  • Manim Community Edition and Python for concept animations

Workflow steps

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

  1. Plan the beats. Narrative arc + which engine each beat needs. Pick 16:9 and/or 9:16.
  2. Set the brand. Ensure FRAME.md is in the project root (copy assets/FRAME.md). All colors/fonts/motifs come from it — never invent. Three…
  3. Pre-render the asset beats first (so they exist as clips)
  4. Scaffold + compose. npx hyperframes init --non-interactive. Author index.html (the hyperframes skill is the contract). Use
  5. Self-verify (gates). references/gates.md: npx hyperframes lint (0 errors) → validate (0 console errors, WCAG AA) → render → spot-check 5…
  6. Render. npx hyperframes render --fps 30 --output renders/_FINAL.mp4. For vertical, clone with a 1080×1920 layout (see video-edit).

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f7a43d8. 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

    Ships script files (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

YUV Video Director loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 211 tokens; SKILL.md has 735 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~211
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8.7k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 735 words (~2,153 tokens).

“The conductor for YUV.AI video. You (the agent) decide what each beat needs, route it to the right engine, compose everything into one HyperFrames composition, wrap it in the YUV.AI Neon Phoenix brand, self-verify, and render to MP4. This skill…”
