What it does

Docs is an agent skill from remotion-dev/remotion, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Start the Remotion docs site and open it in the Codex browser. Use when the user invokes /docs or $docs, asks to launch the local documentation site, or wants to preview docs changes in Docusaurus.

Its SKILL.md is about 250 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Static sites and blogs, Video production and Browser automation. It works with Remotion. The repository describes itself as: 🎥 Make videos programmatically with React.

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

From the repository root, run
Start the docs site
Keep the server process running and read its output for the local URL. The expected default is http://localhost:3000, but follow the…
Open the URL in the Codex in-app browser. If no browser tool is available yet, use tool_search for the in-app browser control tool, then…
Tell the user the docs URL and whether this is a newly started or already running server.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e4c5de. 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:
- bun
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

Docs loads about 248 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 113 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~248

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 113 words (~248 tokens).

“Prepare the Remotion monorepo, launch the Docusaurus docs site, and open the served URL in the Codex in-app browser.”

When should I use Docs?

How do I install Docs in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add remotion-dev/remotion --skill docs -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/docs in remotion-dev/remotion) into .claude/skills/docs in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Docs in Codex?

Run `npx skills add remotion-dev/remotion --skill docs -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/docs in remotion-dev/remotion) into .agents/skills/docs in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Docs in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add remotion-dev/remotion --skill docs -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/docs, .gemini/skills/docs, .github/skills/docs and .opencode/skills/docs in your project.

What does Docs need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Docs needs the command-line tools its instructions call (bun).

Does Docs access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Docs safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Docs use?

Docs has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.

How many tokens does Docs use?

About 248 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 992 characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Docs?

The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
