What it does

Video Editing is an agent skill from ZJU-REAL/Easel. 用自然语言指令剪辑视频:裁剪、拼接、变速、跳切去静音、文字覆盖、横竖比转换、抽帧封面、转 GIF、压缩、加 BGM/水印,基于 ffmpeg。 当用户说"剪视频""裁剪视频""拼接视频""视频变速""去静音""视频加文字""视频转GIF""压缩视频""加BGM/水印"时使用。 本 SKILL 做单条视频的通用剪辑;智能画幅转换用 video-reframe,长视频切片用 clipify/video-highlights,从 0 生成用 ai-video-gen。

Its SKILL.md is about 880 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `EASEL-META.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Video production and AI video generation. It works with FFmpeg. The repository describes itself as: An open-source AI agent for social media — discover trends, create content, publish everywhere, and learn what works across Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Zhihu, Bilibili, and more.🎨一个开源的… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Video production
  • Tasks that involve AI video generation

Example prompts

  • “视频转GIF”
  • “加BGM/水印”
  • “/video-editing”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. 先 info 看源比例/时长/有无音轨,再决定操作
  2. 每个操作调对应子命令,别手写 ffmpeg;不确定参数用 <子命令> -h
  3. 多操作链式执行,中间产物可留 .drafts/
  4. 产物输出到 outputs/主题名/,最后告知路径与时长

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 278f420. 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:

    • 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

Video Editing loads about 878 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 205 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~878

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.

视频剪辑

用自然语言指令做通用视频处理。所有操作都调用共享脚本 skills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py(subprocess 封装 ffmpeg/ffprobe), 不要现场手拼 ffmpeg 命令——脚本已处理音画同步、字体路径、编码默认值、 错误捕获等易错点。

从项目根目录运行。脚本相对路径:skills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py。 每个子命令都支持 -h 查看参数。

输入

  • 视频文件路径 + 操作描述(用户没给路径就问)
  • 可选:目标平台/比例/时间段等参数

输出

处理后的视频/图片,存到 outputs/主题名/。脚本会打印 ✅ <路径> (大小)。

与 clipify 的边界

  • clipify = 长视频智能切片 + 人脸追踪 pan + 逐字字幕烧录的特化流程。 需要"从长视频找精彩片段做成竖版短视频带字幕"时用它。
  • video-editing(本 SKILL) = 通用剪辑处理。单点操作或自由组合时用它。 不做人脸追踪、不做字幕烧录(那是 clipify)。

子命令速查

先 python skills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py info -i <视频> 看清源信息,再操作。

子命令用途关键参数
cut按起止时间裁剪--start --end/--duration,--reencode 精确裁
concat多段拼接--mode demuxer(同参数无损)/filter(异参数统一)
speed变速(音画同步)--factor 2.0
silence-cut检测静音并去除(跳切)--noise -30 --min-silence 0.5 --pad 0.05(别名 mute-cut)
text文字覆盖--text --position --fontsize --color --start --end --box
aspect横竖比转换--ratio 9:16 --mode pad(补边)/crop(裁切)
frame抽帧做封面--time 00:00:03 --width
gif转 GIF--start --end --fps 12 --width 480
compress压缩--crf 26 或 --bitrate 2M,--scale 降分辨率
bgm加背景音乐混音--music --voice-volume 1.0 --music-volume 0.3
watermark加图片水印--logo --position --width --opacity
info时长/分辨率/帧率/码率(json)-i

text / watermark 位置七选一:center top bottom top-left top-right bottom-left bottom-right。中文字体自动探测(wqy-microhei / Noto CJK), 也可 --font 显式指定。

常用示例

bash
V=skills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py

# 裁剪 00:02:00–00:15:00
python $V cut -i in.mp4 -o out.mp4 --start 00:02:00 --end 00:15:00

# 横版转竖版(社媒竖版转制刚需):补边不裁 or 裁切填满
python $V aspect -i in.mp4 -o vertical.mp4 --ratio 9:16 --mode pad
python $V aspect -i in.mp4 -o vertical.mp4 --ratio 9:16 --mode crop

# 去静音 + 1.25 倍速(先跳切再变速)
python $V silence-cut -i in.mp4 -o t.mp4
python $V speed -i t.mp4 -o out.mp4 --factor 1.25

# 第 3 秒抽帧做封面
python $V frame -i in.mp4 -o cover.jpg --time 00:00:03 --width 1080

# 2–6 秒转 GIF
python $V gif -i in.mp4 -o clip.gif --start 2 --end 6 --fps 12 --width 480

# 60 秒处叠 5 秒"关注我"字幕(底部带框)
python $V text -i in.mp4 -o out.mp4 --text "关注我" --position bottom --box --start 60 --end 65

# 加 BGM(原声 1.0 / BGM 0.3)、加右下角水印、压缩
python $V bgm -i in.mp4 -o out.mp4 --music bgm.mp3 --music-volume 0.3
python $V watermark -i in.mp4 -o out.mp4 --logo logo.png --position bottom-right --width 120
python $V compress -i in.mp4 -o small.mp4 --crf 26 --scale 720

组合操作

链式:每步产物作下一步输入。典型顺序 cut → silence-cut → speed → text → aspect → compress。竖版转制放最后(在最终画布上叠字幕更可控)。

平台规范(简表)

平台比例时长备注
抖音/视频号/Reels9:16≤60s 黄金,前 3s 定成败1080×1920
小红书视频9:16 / 3:4≤60s竖版优先
B站/YouTube 横版16:9数分钟起1920×1080
Instagram Feed4:5 / 1:1短4:5 占屏更大

更详细规范按需查 references/(如有)。

环境要求

  • ffmpeg + ffprobe — ✅ 已安装(脚本启动即检查,缺则报错退出)
  • 字幕烧录/逐字字幕 — 走 clipify(需 whisper);本 SKILL 只做 text 覆盖

Agent 指令

  1. 先 info 看源比例/时长/有无音轨,再决定操作
  2. 每个操作调对应子命令,别手写 ffmpeg;不确定参数用 <子命令> -h
