What it does
Baocut is an agent skill from JimLiu/baocut. 用 BaoCut 处理视频与音频：转录、字幕、翻译、配音、剪口播、切短视频、分章、总结写稿、从链接下载、压缩转码、导出成片，或从零做一条成片。有媒体文件、视频链接、字幕文件或 BaoCut 视频时用；只翻译纯文本、与视频无关的写作或作图、别的剪辑器与 FFmpeg 的用法、BaoCut 源码开发不用。
Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 31 other files, including reference files (for example `references/catalog/editing.md`, `references/catalog/export.md` and `references/catalog/media.md`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Transcription and Video production. It works with FFmpeg and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: BaoCut: an AI video agent with an editable timeline. Transcribe, subtitle, translate, dub, cut and animate.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 733b7f1. 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
Baocut loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~74k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 439 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 439 words (~2,390 tokens).

When should I use Baocut?
Baocut fits situations like: tasks that involve Transcription; tasks that involve Video production.
How do I install Baocut in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add JimLiu/baocut --skill baocut -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (agent-skills/baocut in JimLiu/baocut) into .claude/skills/baocut in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Baocut in Codex?

Can I use Baocut in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add JimLiu/baocut --skill baocut -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/baocut, .gemini/skills/baocut, .github/skills/baocut and .opencode/skills/baocut in your project.
What does Baocut need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Baocut is instructions for the agent only.
Does Baocut access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Baocut safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Baocut use?

How many tokens does Baocut use?
About 2.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 71k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
