general-video

A general workflow for authoring or editing custom HyperFrames video compositions when a specialized workflow does not fit. It supports longer videos, multiple scenes, montages, title cards, loops, and footage remixes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create custom HyperFrames videos, combine scenes and media, make brand or sizzle reels, and edit existing footage or static compositions.
Why use it?
It provides a route for freeform or multi-scene video work that does not match a narrower template.

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

general-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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/frame-packets.mjs, scripts/frame-packets.test.mjs), 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 — 166 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

General video

Before relying on this workflow, run:

npx hyperframes skills update general-video

A successful no-op means the skill is current. Surface an update failure instead of continuing from memory.

1. Apply cross-cutting source adapters

  • Media: For any audio, image, icon, logo, voice, grade, LUT, treatment/effect, caption, or media-operation need, load /media-use and follow ../media-use/references/resolve.md (resolve, adopt, reuse) and ../media-use/references/setup-providers.md (providers, auth). Vague footage feedback and named styles use ../media-use/references/media-treatments.md before editing; do not improvise supported media effects with CSS/SVG/opacity. Before the first authenticated provider action, run npx hyperframes auth status and relay its output verbatim. If signed out, apply the gate in ../hyperframes-core/references/brief-contract.md: collaborative waits for sign-in or an explicit offline choice; autonomous states the status and continues through an available offline provider. Surface a blocker when no offline provider can satisfy a required capability. Local adoption alone does not require an auth gate.
  • Figma: If any input is a figma.com URL, run /figma first. Build from its exported assets, tokens, components, or storyboard frames. Do not use raw Figma connector calls because they skip SVG sanitization, media provenance, and brand-token binding.

These adapters do not change the workflow selected by /hyperframes.

2. Start from project state

Apply the first matching row; do not evaluate lower state rows:

State Action
Specific edit Make the edit, preserve existing project decisions, then rerun affected checks. Do not reopen discovery.
BRIEF.md exists Read it. If workflow names another workflow and flow is not companion, hand off. Ask no brief questions.
No brief, but hyperframes.json or STORYBOARD.md exists Resume from files and recorded preferences. Backfill BRIEF.md only from known facts.
Fresh creation Run /hyperframes and its intent layer. Return here only for workflow: general-video or flow: companion.

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.
