ralphy: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/vox-collage/SKILL.md

vox-collage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alecs5am/ralphy. It costs 358 tokens per session (5,169 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for making Vox-style paper-collage explainer or advertising videos: narrated shorts built from animated torn-paper collage scenes, music, and captions. It supplies the visual and editing method for any topic.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for narrated collage explainers, scrapbook-style shorts, sticker-collage ads, or other animated paper-collage videos.
Why use it?
It gives the video workflow a defined structure and visual language when a subject needs to be explained through punchy collage scenes.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: positional $N argument; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is alecs5am/ralphy's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on ralphy itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything ralphy configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

vox-collage scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 193 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Trigger

FIRES on a generic paper-collage motion-video brief: "make a vox-style video about X", "turn this topic into a collage explainer", "motion collage ad for our product", "sticker-collage explainer", "torn-paper animated short", "scrapbook tribute to ". Any subject — the skill is subject-agnostic.

DO NOT FIRE when:

  • The brief is for static multi-slide stills (a swipe-through deck) → use /carousel.
  • The brief is for ONE still (poster / key art) → use /poster.
  • The brief is a creepy PSA / VHS warning → use /analog-horror-psa.
  • The user points at one specific collage video to reproduce → that is the remix path. See docs/skills-vs-templates.md.

What this skill is

A generalized craft overlay that adapts the vox-director METHOD to OUR stack. It does not name a topic, a person, or an aesthetic — it tells the art-director + editor HOW a paper-collage motion video is built so a strong one comes out for whatever the user is pushing. Every model call routes through ralphy generate / ralphy render (AGENTS.md invariants #1, #2) — no provider API, no Atlas Cloud plumbing, no ad-hoc curl/ffmpeg for the paid steps.

The one idea to internalize: the collage LOOK and the collage MOTION are two different steps.

  1. The look is born in the IMAGE step. Each beat is a finished collage poster made by a text-to-image model. All the collage DNA (torn paper, cut-outs, halftone, bold flat color, baked headline) lives in that poster. If the image is not a rich, dense collage, nothing downstream saves it.
  2. The motion is added after. A flat-safe i2v pass animates the whole poster ("living poster"). The constraint set is what makes a video model animate flat art without warping it.

Before writing ANY image or motion prompt, read the two references — they are the whole craft:

  • references/prompt-guide.md — the LOOK layer (image + motion prompt structures, the vocabulary banks, the era-matched theme presets).
  • references/beat-layer.md — the STORY layer (narrative arcs, hook patterns, beat counts, the hard-constrained flat-safe camera-move vocab).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
