OpenMontage is an agent-driven video production system that uses coding assistants to handle tasks such as research, scripting, asset creation, editing, and composition. It is intended for people who want to produce videos through natural-language instructions and includes the project's workflows as catalogue add-ons.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Tool Misuse · line 36 Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.
- medium Data Exfiltration · line 24 Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00127 | $0.01583 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00063 | $0.00792 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00025 | $0.00317 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00158 |
Grade A, and why
avatar-video 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 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.

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.

Two modes -- a NARRATED film where measured voiceover drives the timeline (designed slides, subtitles, punch-in camera, rendered from an HTML timeline), and a SILENT evidence clip for a PR or a QA pass. Use when the user asks to record a video, demo, or screen…
image-authoring
Author images and diagrams as code — SVG, Pillow, Excalidraw, mermaid. Load when asked to draw, illustrate, or make an image, icon, logo, poster, or diagram.
pptx-maker
