universal-motion-prompt

universal-motion-prompt is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BetterPromptme/skills. It costs 90 tokens per session (1,150 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An image-editing prompt that adds realistic motion cues to one still image while keeping its subject, composition, lighting, atmosphere, and mood. The changes can include motion blur, wind movement, shifting light, or a gentle camera-like pan.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a photo for a cinematic motion effect or to suggest movement in people, objects, weather, or the camera.
Why use it?
It helps a still picture feel active without changing the main scene or its overall tone.

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

universal-motion-prompt scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 11d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 106 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

What it does

This prompt instructs the model to take a provided still image and enhance it with realistic, cinematic motion cues—such as subtle motion blur, wind-driven movement, light shifts, or gentle camera-like panning—while preserving the original composition, lighting, atmosphere, and mood. The outcome is an image that feels like a mid-action frame, energized and alive, without warping or altering the core subject or scene tone.

Inputs

textInputs

Pass each text input using --input <key>=<value> flags.

Variable key Required? Description Defaults
Action Required wefwef (none)

imageInputs

This prompt requires exactly 1 image. You must pass exactly 1 image flag (no more, no fewer), in the order matching the descriptions below.

Index Required Description Allowed CLI flags
1 Yes A photo --image-input-url <url> or --image-input-base64 <base64> or --image-input-path <absolute path to image>

Models and options

This skill's modality is: video.

To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "video".

How to run

Step 1: Collect inputs

First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "video" to discover valid models and available options:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.

Then collect all inputs from the human:

  • Required text inputs:
    • Action
  • Required images:
    • Exactly 1 images: image 1 (A photo). Images must be provided in this order.
  • Optional: model and options.
    • Present the human with the default model sora-2 and its available options. Look up sora-2 in the betterprompt resources output (filtered to modality "video") and show its availableOptions as: key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value (default) if it matches these defaults: {"seconds":"8","size":"1280x720"}.
    • If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model sora-2, options {"seconds":"8","size":"1280x720"}. Other models from the resources call are also available.

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.
