What it does
Video Router is an agent skill from Orkas-AI/Orkas-VideoStudio. Read this FIRST on any video-production request to pick and lock the line — generate (AI footage), compose (designed HTML), edit (cut real footage), or AUTO end-to-end. Trigger when classifying a brief and committing to a primary path; do NOT trigger for authoring compositions, generating assets, or rendering output (those have their own stage skills).
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/production-method.md`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Video production, AI video generation and Motion graphics. The repository describes itself as: Turn your coding agent into a video studio: describe a video in plain language, and your agent writes the timeline and produces the file. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Classifying a brief and committing to a primary path
- Do NOT trigger for authoring compositions
- Generating assets
- Rendering output (those have their own stage skills)
Example prompts
- “/video-router”

- Aspect ratio drives the canvas: 16:9 → 1920×1080, 9:16 → 1080×1920, 1:1 → 1080×1080.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c0c3c3e. 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 Router loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 92 tokens; SKILL.md has 760 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-router
Knowledge for picking a video production line and locking it before work begins. This skill is read for guidance; it describes what to decide, not any tool mechanics.
Read production method and current-video checks before deep reference analysis or delivery review. It distinguishes direct provider output from locally assembled output using the current executable plan, not the route label.
Unavailable Production Runtime
If production, rendering, or paid tools are explicitly unavailable, still select the line and return a complete unexecuted production package for a clear brief: assumptions, script/narration, timed storyboard/shotlist, exact visible copy and captions, visual/audio direction, rights-safe asset provenance/fallbacks, export target, preview checklist, and final encoding/playback QA. Clearly distinguish planned from produced media and do not withhold the package behind a direction form.
The three capability axes
A finished video is built from one or more of three orthogonal axes. Decide which dominate, then lock them.
- Generate (A) — AI-generated footage/imagery: photoreal shots, b-roll, motion, talking-head. Use when the brief needs real-looking or cinematic visuals.
- Compose (B) — deterministic HTML composition: explainers, kinetic typography, motion graphics, captions / lower-thirds / overlays, data viz, title cards, transitions. Use when the visuals are designed rather than filmed. This is the default for explainer/animation work.
- Edit (C) — intelligent editing of supplied footage: evidence-based selection/cleanup, deterministic cut/join/reframe/captions/audio work, and semantic AI video editing for bounded pixel-level changes.
Decision rules
- First distinguish an edit target from a production input. Keeping supplied video or its timeline as the spine remains EDIT, including captions, overlays, localization and supplied narration. Video used only as a reference, or supplied images/audio/scripts, do not select EDIT. Ask only if the requested output is ambiguous.
- Read the brief (topic, aspect ratio, language, duration) and classify the dominant work object:
- "explain / teach / animate / motion-graphics / kinetic text" → Compose (B) primary, optionally Generate (A) for b-roll.
- "make footage of / cinematic / a scene of / a character doing" → Generate (A) primary, Compose (B) to overlay captions.
- "cut / clip / trim / repurpose / make highlights / remove or change something in my video" → Edit (C) primary. Keep EDIT as the route even when a billable
operation:"edit"segment is required.
- Most explainer/animation requests are Compose-primary: typographic and motion-graphic scenes assembled as an HTML composition, with AI imagery only where a shot genuinely needs it.
- For supplied reference media, classify the requested relationship as
reproduce,edit, orguidebefore choosing execution. Apply the same classification regardless of origin. Images can control content/identity/composition/structure/style; videos can additionally control motion/timing/audio through temporal anchors. - Aspect ratio drives the canvas: 16:9 → 1920×1080, 9:16 → 1080×1920, 1:1 → 1080×1080.

End-to-end (AUTO) — when the job spans lines
Pick a single line when one axis cleanly dominates (just trim a clip; just an explainer; just generate a scene). Route to AUTO end-to-end when the deliverable genuinely needs MORE THAN ONE axis woven into the primary timeline — most often the user supplies their own material AND wants finished framing/voice/motion around it:
- "use my clip in the middle, author a motion-graphics opener, and add generated b-roll" (edit + compose + generate)
- "my footage in the middle, generate an opener, compose the stats" (edit + generate + compose)
- "make a finished video from these assets" where the assets alone are not the deliverable.
AUTO does not abandon the axes — it sequences them through one cross-modal plan (stage-plan builds the EDL, stage-assemble walks it), delegating each segment back to the generate / compose / edit lines. Choosing AUTO is itself the lock: the primary still gets named via the plan's delivery_promise (source_led / motion_led / compose_led / hybrid).
Lock the runtime
- Decide the primary axis at the brief/proposal stage and state it in the proposal.
- Once locked, do not silently switch the primary axis mid-run. If a later step reveals the wrong choice, surface it to the user and re-confirm rather than quietly changing course.
- Layering is fine and expected (e.g. Compose captions over Generated footage); "locking" governs the primary path, not the allowed overlays.
Boundary / non-goals
This skill only routes and locks. Semantic editing is not a silent switch to GENERATE: it remains an EDIT/AUTO job with a signed billable video edit segment and explicit original/preservation boundary.
Runtime handoff
For a fully specified one-shot deterministic edit, state EDIT, probe and execute through stage-edit without a direction artifact or plan. Load stage-decide first only when the content or timing must be located.
For other production work, show two or three direction concepts and the facts already settled by the brief. Do not write a manifest, narration or art direction before that choice. Follow gate-control for the decision and its localized title. The public runtime uses OVS and HyperFrames; do not invent desktop-host operations.
