What it does
Video Analyzer is an agent skill from mikefutia/claude-vision. Analyzes a video file with Google Gemini and returns a structured markdown report covering top-level summary, scene-by-scene breakdown, audio transcript (or honest "silent" note), visual details, and key timestamped moments. Strong anti-hallucination guardrails — will not invent narrators, voiceovers, or speaker names. Use when you need to understand what actually happens in a video.
Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `README.md` and `scripts/analyze_video.py`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Text to speech and voice. It works with Google Gemini and Python. The repository describes itself as: Claude Vision Skill (Mike Futia | SCALE AI).
When your agent uses it
- You need to understand what actually happens in a video
- Tasks that involve Text to speech and voice
Example prompts
- “silent”
- “Use the video-analyzer skill to analyz a video file with Google Gemini and returns a structured markdown report covering top-level summary…”
- “/video-analyzer”
Requirements
- Python 3
- A credential in GEMINI_API_KEY
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Parse the arguments from $ARGUMENTS
- Verify the video file exists at the given path. If not, report the error and stop.
- Run the analysis script using the absolute path to its install location
- The script will
- Capture stdout and present the report to the user.
- If the script exits with an error, help the user troubleshoot
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0665eb3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
BashRead
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
GEMINI_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Video Analyzer loads about 747 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 326 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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Bash, Read
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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 326 words (~747 tokens).

When should I use Video Analyzer?
Video Analyzer fits situations like: you need to understand what actually happens in a video; tasks that involve Text to speech and voice.
How do I install Video Analyzer in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add mikefutia/claude-vision --skill video-analyzer -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (the mikefutia/claude-vision repository) into .claude/skills/video-analyzer in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Video Analyzer in Codex?
Run `npx skills add mikefutia/claude-vision --skill video-analyzer -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (the mikefutia/claude-vision repository) into .agents/skills/video-analyzer in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Video Analyzer 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 mikefutia/claude-vision --skill video-analyzer -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/video-analyzer, .gemini/skills/video-analyzer, .github/skills/video-analyzer and .opencode/skills/video-analyzer in your project.
What does Video Analyzer need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Video Analyzer needs Python for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (python3) and credentials named GEMINI_API_KEY.
