What it does

Cover Gen is an agent skill from npc-live/clawfirm. 社交媒体封面生成 + 视频首帧插入。从视频成片提取关键帧,按各平台规格 AI 生成封面, 最终将封面作为视频第一帧(0.1秒)合成到视频中。底层使用 mediagen (Gemini/OpenAI) + FFmpeg。 触发词:封面、cover、生成封面、封面制作、首帧、cover gen、thumbnail、视频封面。

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Video production. It works with FFmpeg and OpenAI.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Video production

Example prompts

  • “/cover-gen”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. 提取视频信息 + 关键帧
  2. 平台封面规格
  3. AI 生成封面
  4. 封面合成到视频第一帧 (0.1s)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit db435ed. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • ffmpeg
    • ffprobe

    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

Cover Gen loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 251 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 251 words (~2,331 tokens).
