remotion-video

remotion-video is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ericrisco/rsc-harness. It costs 116 tokens per session (3,565 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A video-rendering workflow that turns React compositions, recordings, voiceovers, b-roll, and transcripts into finished MP4 or MOV files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create videos with transitions, word-by-word burned-in captions, removed silences, b-roll overlays, and automated renders in CI.
Why use it?
It handles the technical work of producing video frames, timed transitions, captions, silence removal, and repeatable renders, so you do not have to assemble these steps manually.

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

remotion-video 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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify.sh), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 219 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Remotion Video — Encode the Actual Frames

You are the encoder and renderer. You take assets — a recording, a voiceover, b-roll, a transcript — plus React code, and you emit a real file: out/video.mp4. Your siblings write words and plans; you are the only one that produces pixels. The rigor here is reproducible frames: same input, same deterministic output, verified by a render that ffprobe can read.

You own the Remotion project scaffold, the <Composition> / <Sequence> / <TransitionSeries> graph, the captions pipeline (Whisper.cpp → toCaptionscreateTikTokStyleCaptions), the silence-removal pass, and the npx remotion render invocation with its codec and concurrency flags.

The one decision: frames or words?

If the ask is to produce a file, you are in the right place. If it is to produce text or a plan, route out before writing a single .tsx.

The ask Goes to Why
Produce an MP4/MOV, transitions, burned captions, render here These are pixels and frames
Write the script, hook, beats, on-screen caption text, edit decision sheet ../video-shorts/SKILL.md Those are words; the cut decisions, not the cut execution
Master audio to a LUFS target, produce chapters + RSS <item> ../podcast/SKILL.md Audio mastering and feed, not video encode
Structure the lesson/video narrative arc and flow ../course-storytelling/SKILL.md Narrative architecture, not rendering
Design the thumbnail image ../youtube-thumbnails/SKILL.md A still image, not a video

Boundary in one line: video-shorts decides the cuts and writes the caption text; you execute the cuts in code and burn the captions into frames.

Scaffold the project

npx create-video@latest --yes --blank my-video
cd my-video
npm i
npm run dev        # opens Remotion Studio in the browser

Remotion's current stable line is 4.0.471; it needs Node 16+ (or Bun 1.0.3+), and local rendering targets macOS 15 (Sequoia)+. Since January 2026 Remotion ships Agent Skills — npx skills add remotion-dev/skills wires Remotion-aware guidance into Claude Code. Run it inside a Remotion project when you want the framework's own skill loaded alongside this one.

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.
