What it does
Video Workflow is an agent skill from nodetool-ai/nodetool. Build a reusable NodeTool video workflow for batches or repeated inputs. For a single finished piece, use a storyboard skill.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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 Comics and storyboards. The repository describes itself as: Agent-first Creative Workspace. The licence is AGPL-3.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Comics and storyboards
Example prompts
- “/video-workflow”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 58765d3. 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
Video Workflow loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 873 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.

- video-workflow
- description
- Build a reusable NodeTool video workflow for batches or repeated inputs. For a single finished piece, use a storyboard skill.
Load /storyboard-core for what a shot is and how entities season a prompt,
and /nodetool-workflow-builder for how to author a graph at all — node search,
handles, validation, the tools. This skill is the seam between them: the nodes that
turn a brief into shots, and when a graph is the wrong answer.
First, check a graph is actually wanted
A graph earns its cost only when the pipeline gets re-run on new inputs. One video, even a complicated one, is faster and cheaper to direct on a storyboard — no node search, no handle wiring, no validation pass, and the user can see and fix each shot.
Build a graph when the user says template, pipeline, batch, factory, "for every SKU", "run it again next month", or wants it callable from Chat by name. If they asked for a video and you are reaching for a graph, go back to the storyboard skills.
The creative nodes
Search the registry before adding any of these — search_nodes or ui_search_nodes
with include_properties and include_outputs — and never invent a type, a property
or a handle name. Verified types:
| Node | Does |
|---|---|
nodetool.creative.Director | brief → Screenplay. Props: model (language_model), brief, style, shot_count (1–20). Outputs: screenplay, narration, music_prompt, title. |
nodetool.creative.ScreenplayShots | fans a screenplay out one shot at a time. Outputs shot, shot_prompt, index per iteration plus output as the whole list. |
nodetool.creative.ShotBatch | flattens a screenplay into generation-ready specs in one go. Output: shots (list[dict]) with prompt, timing and keyframe. |
nodetool.creative.ShotChain | animates a spec list sequentially, seeding each shot's first frame from the previous clip's last frame. Output: videos. Needs the ffmpeg runtime. |
nodetool.creative.ApplyEntities | seasons a prompt with entity descriptors, the same rule the storyboard render path uses. |
nodetool.image.TextToImage | prompt → image. |
nodetool.video.ImageToVideo / nodetool.video.TextToVideo | still → clip, or prompt → clip. |
Re-run an approved document instead of re-directing
When the user already has a board, a script or a cut they signed off, do not put
Director in the graph. Start from the approved row and derive:
| Node | Does |
|---|---|
nodetool.constant.Storyboard / .Entity | a picked board or library entity as a graph value. Outputs output. |
nodetool.entity.CreateEntity | image, kind, name, descriptor, key → entity, created. Upserts on key (a SKU), so a second run reuses the row instead of growing the library. |
nodetool.entity.LoadEntity / ListEntities | read one entity, or stream a filtered set. |
nodetool.storyboard.RecastStoryboard | storyboard, cast, replaces, reuse_existing → the copy, invalidated, kept. Keeps every frame whose prompt did not move. |
nodetool.storyboard.RenderStills / RenderClips | render the stale shots of a derived board. only_stale, max_shots, require_keyframe are the spend gates. |
nodetool.storyboard.AssembleTimeline | the derived board → timeline. A copy inherits the template's cut, titles and music. |
nodetool.storyboard.LoadStoryboard / StoryboardShots | read a board's shots, entities and settings, or stream one message per shot with its still and clip. |
nodetool.script.WriteScript / FillScript | write a script from a brief and a cast, or fill {{key}} placeholders in an approved one. Both make a new row. |
nodetool.timeline.FillTimelineText | timeline, values → a new sequence with the overlay filled. |
nodetool.timeline.RetargetTimeline | timeline, aspect_ratio, fit → a new sequence, plus cropped naming the clips the crop cuts into. |
The write contract. A storyboard ref is read-only unless the run derived it.
RenderStills, RenderClips and AssembleTimeline refuse a picked board and name
allow_writes, which is the override for a graph whose whole purpose is to render the
board a person chose. Wire RecastStoryboard first and pass its output along; that ref
carries the permission.

Two shapes, and they are not interchangeable
Per-shot fan-out — Director → ScreenplayShots → TextToImage → ImageToVideo.
Each shot renders independently. Use it when shots are separate takes: an ad, a set of
social cuts, anything where a shot failing should not spoil the rest.
Continuous chain — Director → ShotBatch → ShotChain. Each clip's first frame
is the previous clip's last frame, so motion and framing carry across the cut. Use it
for a sequence that has to feel continuous. It is sequential, so it is slower and one
bad clip propagates.
ApplyEntities goes between the prompt source and the image node whenever the pipeline
has a recurring character or product to hold steady.
Wire the gate in
The storyboard loop's value is that a human sees the stills before the clips are paid for. A graph loses that unless you build it in: keep the still half and the clip half separable, so the user can run to the stills, look, and then run the clip half. Say which inputs do that when you hand the workflow over.
Validate and deliver the requested result
validate_workflow with the inline graph before saving — it catches unknown node
types, missing required properties, unselected models, dangling edges and a model id
the provider does not offer, in well under a second and with no spend.
create_workflow refuses to save a graph whose model properties are unselected, so
pick real ones with find_model and stamp them in. Nothing fills them in at run time.
Save and read back the graph. A request to build a template ends with a validated workflow and its input instructions. If the user also requested execution, run the authorized stages within their scope and budget. Do not request the same authorization again.
Brief
Adapt these examples to the user's brief. Example deliverables, style choices, and approval checkpoints apply only when the user adopts them.
Build a workflow named "UGC factory" that I can re-run from Chat.
Inputs: a product image, a brief, an aspect ratio.
Shape: nodetool.creative.Director (brief + style + shot_count) ->
nodetool.creative.ScreenplayShots -> nodetool.creative.ApplyEntities ->
nodetool.image.TextToImage -> a point I can stop at and look ->
nodetool.video.ImageToVideo -> timeline assembly.
Search the registry for every node type and read its real properties and handles
before you add it. Pick concrete models with find_model and stamp them in.

Save it and stop. Do not run the clip stage.© nodetool-ai, AGPL-3.0. Rendered from Markdown: HTML in the file is shown as text, images as links, and headings moved down two levels. Raw file
