What it does
Clip Factory is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Turn one long video, podcast, or stream transcript into 8-12 short-form clips — each with a hook line, cut timestamps, captions, and a platform note for TikTok/Reels/Shorts — plus an honesty gate that kills clips that misrepresent the source. Use when someone says 'clip this podcast', 'make shorts from my video', 'what's clippable here', or runs a clipping side hustle. Produces a ranked clip sheet ready for an editor or a clipping app.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Transcription. It works with TikTok. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Someone says clip this podcast
- Make shorts from my video
- Whats clippable here
- Runs a clipping side hustle
Example prompts
- “clip this podcast”
- “make shorts from my video”
- “s clippable here”
- “/clip-factory”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Mine for arcs, not moments. Scan the transcript for: claims that
- Write the hook as a question the viewer must answer. The first line on
- Cut to the arc, not the clock. In at the last possible second before
- Run the honesty gate. For each clip: would the speaker say "yes,
- Rank by arc-completeness × hook strength, not by how loud the moment
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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
Clip Factory loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 113 tokens; SKILL.md has 672 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.

Clip Factory Skill
Clipping is a real economy now — creators pay per viral clip, and one 90-minute conversation can feed a channel for two weeks. But most clip sheets are made by scrubbing for loud moments, which finds volume, not virality. The clips that travel have a complete arc in under 60 seconds: a hook that creates a question, a middle that pays it, an end that lands before attention dies. This skill mines a transcript for those arcs, writes the hooks, marks the cuts — and runs the gate clip farms skip: does this clip mean what the speaker meant? Out-of-context bait gets engagement and burns the channel that posted it.
What This Skill Produces
- A ranked clip sheet: 8–12 clips, best first, each with hook text (first 1.5 seconds on screen), cut timestamps, runtime, and why it works
- Caption blocks per clip: on-screen hook, caption text, 3–5 tags that are actually about the content
- A platform note per clip: where it fits best and any recut (Shorts favours faster cold opens; TikTok tolerates 5 more seconds of setup)
- The honesty gate log: clips that were strong but cut for misrepresentation, and what would make them fair
Required Inputs
Ask for (if not already provided):
- The transcript, with timestamps if available (or the video/audio to transcribe if tooling allows; without timestamps, mark cuts by quote and say so)
- Whose channel the clips serve (the creator's own? a clipping account with permission?) and the tone that channel runs
- Platform targets and any hard rules (no swearing cuts, brand-safe, etc.)
- What the source is really about — the thesis the clips must not betray
Framework: what makes a clip travel
- Mine for arcs, not moments. Scan the transcript for: claims that surprise ("most people believe X — it's backwards") · stories with a turn · strong disagreements · numbered lists compressible to one item · emotional peaks with their setup nearby. A great line without its setup is a hook with no payoff — check the 30 seconds before it.
- Write the hook as a question the viewer must answer. The first line on screen is the whole game: "the mistake every first-time founder makes" beats the quote itself. Hook text ≠ first words spoken — it's the overlay that makes them stay for the first words spoken.
- Cut to the arc, not the clock. In at the last possible second before context is lost; out on the landed line, not the trailing "…so yeah." 20–45s is the sweet spot; 60s+ needs a mid-clip re-hook to survive.
- Run the honesty gate. For each clip: would the speaker say "yes, that's what I meant" seeing it cold? Sarcasm clipped straight, positions stated-to-refute, jokes clipped as claims — killed or fixed with a context caption. The gate is non-negotiable; it's also self-interest, because "misleading clip" replies kill channels slower but just as dead.
- Rank by arc-completeness × hook strength, not by how loud the moment was. Note the one clip most likely to travel and why.

## Killed at the honesty gate
| Clip | Why killed | What would make it fair |Quality Checks
- Every clip has a complete arc — hook, payoff, landing — verifiable from the quoted timestamps
- Hooks create a question; zero hooks are just the quote restated
- The honesty gate ran and its log is present (even when empty: "nothing cut")
- Tags describe the content, not trending-tag spam
- Cut points respect sentence boundaries — no clips ending mid-thought unless the cliffhanger is the point and the payoff is in the caption
Anti-Patterns
- Do not clip sarcasm, hypotheticals, or steelmanned opposing views as sincere claims — that's the gate's kill list
- Do not write rage-bait hooks the content can't cash
- Do not produce 30 mediocre clips instead of 10 good ones — the sheet is ranked and short because editor time is the scarce resource
- Do not ignore rights: clipping someone else's content needs their permission or their program's terms — ask whose channel this serves
