Project launch video via Hyperframes, upstream-maintained. An agent skill from NousResearch/hermes-agent.

  • Tasks that involve Motion graphics
  • Needs GITHUB_TOKEN

What it does

Brag is an agent skill from NousResearch/hermes-agent. Project launch video via Hyperframes, upstream-maintained.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 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 Motion graphics. It works with HeyGen. The repository describes itself as: The agent that grows with you. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Motion graphics

Example prompts

  • “/brag”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A credential in GITHUB_TOKEN

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 14ec243. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GITHUB_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Brag loads about 715 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 309 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~715

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.

Brag (upstream-maintained)

Catalog stub. This entry is maintained upstream at latent-spaces/brag: the project ships the skill directory (skills/brag/) with its step references, tone presets, bundled music and SFX library, and cue-analysis script. hermes skills install official/creative/brag pulls the current tree live from that repo (quarantined and scanned like any hub install) — this directory holds only the catalog metadata, so the vendored copy can never go stale.

/brag reads the project in the current directory, commits to an angle and a tone (default, polished, yc-parody, chaotic, deadpan, cinematic, app-store, or freeform direction), storyboards a 15–25 second video, hands a composition brief to Hyperframes, and renders brag-output/brag.mp4 with a best-frame poster and share copy. Options: --tone, --format landscape|vertical|square, --duration, --title, --no-music, --no-sfx, and --voice (Kokoro narration, off by default).

On Claude Opus 5.5 it hands off to its bundled copy of brag-slim unless the invocation asks for --full or --voice.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 22+, FFmpeg on PATH, and the Hyperframes CLI (npx hyperframes doctor confirms the environment).
  • The Hyperframes path (--full, --voice, or any model other than Opus 5.5) loads HeyGen's domain skills by name: hyperframes-core, hyperframes-animation, hyperframes-creative, hyperframes-keyframes and hyperframes-cli, installed with hermes skills install heygen-com/hyperframes/skills/<name>. The skills guard currently blocks four of the five on HTML comments and credential docs in their examples (hyperframes-creative scores dangerous, which --force cannot override), so that path is not fully installable yet. brag-slim has no such dependency. The optional hyperframes skill in this catalog is a single-file port and does not provide those names.
  • uv runs scripts/analyze_music_cues.py when a custom track needs beat-sync cues; the bundled tracks ship precomputed cues.
  • Installs pull ~290 files (~16 MB, mostly the bundled music and SFX) through the GitHub contents API. Set GITHUB_TOKEN or sign in with the gh CLI first; the anonymous limit of 60 requests an hour is too low for this bundle.
