What it does

Cinematic Director Frame is an agent skill from zhu930824/cinematic-director-frame. Generate a single exact 2.35:1 cinematic film frame with strongly expressed auteur visual grammar, director-specific lens and focus behavior, immediately recognizable color signatures, precise production design, and rich composition geometry. Supports 24 director grammars and scene-conditioned focal lengths from 18mm to 180mm. Use when the user asks for a movie still, film frame, cinematic keyframe, director-inspired shot, storyboard-quality image, or wants distinctive camera, optics, lighting, palette, blocking…

Its SKILL.md is about 5.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 43 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `README.md`, `README.zh-CN.md` and `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Comics and storyboards.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for a movie still
  • Cinematic keyframe
  • Director-inspired shot
  • Storyboard-quality image

Example prompts

  • “/cinematic-director-frame”

Workflow steps

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

  1. one generated cinematic frame;
  2. the final generation prompt;
  3. a concise shot card with director translation, lens, camera, light, palette, and framing.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b2634d0. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    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

Cinematic Director Frame loads about 5.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~22k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 168 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,398 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~168
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~22k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,398 words (~5,415 tokens).
