What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f3445d6. 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 (its code samples are markdown).
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
To Spec Beats loads about 977 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 453 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.

To spec beats
Turn an approved content/ARTICLE.md into BEATS.md: the video's factual and narrative spine. The article owns what the work says; this pass decides what the viewer learns when. Later passes decide spoken wording and visuals.
Process
- Read
content/ARTICLE.md,content/TOPIC.mdwhen it exists, and the evidence needed to preserve their boundaries. Recompute each approved file's SHA-256 after removing only itsapproved_digest:line; continue only when the stored digest matches the current file and the article hasstatus: approved. When a user brings a complete article from outside this workflow, first place or adapt it ascontent/ARTICLE.mdusing the external-source contract from/boring-video; a separate topic contract is not required retroactively. - Inherit the audience, thesis, and scope from the approved article and topic contract when present. Define only the audience's prior knowledge, desired change in understanding, target duration, and the video's selection from the approved scope.
- Build the reverse-iceberg arc: hook in viewer language, value or answer by beat two, then evidence, mechanism, implications, and close. Reorder, compress, or omit article material for the medium while preserving meaning and boundaries.
- Give every beat one cognitive job. Split beats that require two independent realizations; remove beats whose job does not trace to the approved thesis.
- Keep visual treatments, camera moves, animation, composition, and scene elements out of beats. Record only content facts needed by later stages. A visual idea discovered here moves to
SCENES.md; it does not become part of the beat contract.

- Audit the complete file: every material claim and viewpoint traces to the approved article, every dependency points backward, the thesis lands by beat two, and the duration budgets fit the target.
When the video structure exposes a missing fact, viewpoint, argument step, or conclusion, return it to content/ARTICLE.md. If resolving it changes a locked topic decision, return content/TOPIC.md to draft as well. Renew the required approvals, then propagate the change forward. Do not patch a content gap inside BEATS.md.
Beat IDs are stable interfaces. Preserve them through revisions and assign a new ID when inserting a beat.
REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use artifact-preview for BEATS.md before declaring it complete and after every later source change. Present this as a content-structure review: it can approve the learning arc, claims, evidence, and duration budget, but never visual execution.
BEATS.md is complete when another writer can draft the narration without inventing content, every beat is a medium-specific arrangement of the approved article rather than a new argument, and the artifact-preview completion criterion is satisfied for BEATS.preview.html.
