At a glance
Plans long-form MiniMax H3 video productions as Sequence, Shot, and Segment contracts that stay continuous across generation windows.
- Planning a video story longer than one native H3 generation window
- SKILL.md covers Preserve the Whole Story, Plan Approval Horizons, Compile Native H3 Segment… and Protect Speech and Visible Text, plus 4 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
- Breaking a long script into sequences and continuity-safe shots
What it does
A complete story and timeline gets designed up front rather than shrunk to fit one native generation window, organized into dramatic sequences such as hook, setup, discovery, and reversal, then into shots of roughly five to eight seconds on a half-second grid. Each shot records its incoming state, its must-complete action, the outgoing state the next shot has to inherit, a primary camera movement, and an optional flourish that can be dropped without breaking continuity.
A 30-second approval horizon is the default checkpoint, moved to the nearest safe shot boundary rather than cutting mid-line of dialogue or mid-reveal, and the production gets exactly one Final Hold at its real ending rather than a false conclusion at every horizon. Native H3 segment contracts preserve identity, wardrobe, prop ownership, and lighting across each hidden boundary, and the skill is applied together with a bound default H3 prompt-writing skill.
When your agent uses it
- Planning a video story longer than one native H3 generation window
- Breaking a long script into sequences and continuity-safe shots
- Placing approval checkpoints without cutting mid-dialogue or mid-reveal
Example prompts
- “Plan this 90-second story as sequences and shots on a half-second grid.”
- “Where should the first approval horizon land without cutting the reveal?”
- “Define the outgoing state this shot must hand to the next one.”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9bdc33d. 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
Long-Form H3 Director loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 817 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 817 words (~1,509 tokens).
“Apply this Special Skill with the bound Default H3 Prompt Writing Skill. Design the complete requested story and Timeline; Studio runtime decides when each approved production batch is rendered.”
