Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 telemetry/version_check.py 2>/dev/null || true.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

video-caption-generator 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/process_videos.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

name: video-caption-generator description: > Transcribe short videos from a Google Drive folder, deduplicate by content, and generate social captions + YouTube/Facebook titles. Use when new video clips are dropped into a Drive folder and you need transcript, caption, and title for each unique clip. Trigger phrases: "process videos in drive", "transcribe new clips", "caption these videos", "generate titles for these clips".

Video Caption Generator

Processes new MP4s from a Google Drive folder: transcribes, deduplicates, generates captions + titles.

Drive Folder Setup

Configure your Google Drive folder IDs before first use:

Folder Purpose
Main / To Schedule New clips are dropped here for processing
Scheduled Already posted/scheduled clips (moved after publishing)
A/B Title variants for later posting

Set your folder IDs in folder-map.json or pass them directly via --folder-id.

Quick Run

python3 skills/video-caption-generator/scripts/process_videos.py \
  --folder-id YOUR_FOLDER_ID

Processed video IDs are logged to processed_ids.json so already-seen videos are skipped on future runs.

A/B Variant Handling

Videos with identical transcripts but different filenames (e.g., 0411.mp4, 0411(1).mp4) are A/B title variants — same audio, different on-screen title. The script processes ALL variants (no dedup skipping) and tags them as A/B variants in the output.

Output Format

For each unique new clip, output:

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
