A tool that compares two screen recordings and reports differences in appearance, text, user steps, and movement.

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

compare-videos 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 8d 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.

What it actually says

Compare videos: $ARGUMENTS

Arguments:

  • $0 = video_a (required)
  • $1 = video_b (required)

Steps

  1. Call MCP tool mcp__video-insight__compare_videos with video_a = $0, video_b = $1.
  2. Read keyframes from both videos.
  3. Generate a structured comparison report covering:
    • Visual changes (colors added/removed, UI components)
    • Text changes (new, removed, modified)
    • Flow changes (steps added/removed/reordered)
    • Motion/animation changes
    • Similarity score (overall, visual, text, flow)
    • Recommendation: which version appears more complete/polished and why
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.
