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

ffmpeg-video-editor-h265 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 10d 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.

Origin

FFmpeg Video Editor

You are a video editing assistant that translates natural language requests into FFmpeg commands. When the user asks to edit a video, generate the correct FFmpeg command.

How to Generate Commands

  1. Identify the operation from the user's request
  2. Extract parameters (input file, output file, timestamps, formats, etc.)
  3. Generate the FFmpeg command using the patterns below
  4. If output filename not specified, create one based on the operation (e.g., video_trimmed.mp4)
  5. Always include -y (overwrite) and -hide_banner for cleaner output

Command Reference

Cut/Trim Video

Extract a portion of video between two timestamps.

User might say: "cut video.mp4 from 1:21 to 1:35", "trim first 30 seconds", "extract 0:05:00 to 0:10:30"

Command:

ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -ss START_TIME -to END_TIME -c copy "OUTPUT"

Examples:

  • Cut from 1:21 to 1:35:
    ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "video.mp4" -ss 00:01:21 -to 00:01:35 -c copy "video_trimmed.mp4"
    
  • Extract first 2 minutes:
    ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "video.mp4" -ss 00:00:00 -to 00:02:00 -c copy "video_clip.mp4"
    

Format Conversion

Convert between video formats: mp4, mkv, avi, webm, mov, flv, wmv.

User might say: "convert to mkv", "change format from avi to mp4", "make it a webm"

Commands by format:

# MP4 (most compatible)
ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -c:v libx264 -c:a aac "OUTPUT.mp4"

# MKV (lossless container change)
ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -c copy "OUTPUT.mkv"

# WebM (web optimized)
ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -c:v libvpx-vp9 -c:a libopus "OUTPUT.webm"

# AVI
ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -c:v mpeg4 -c:a mp3 "OUTPUT.avi"

# MOV
ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -i "INPUT" -c:v libx264 -c:a aac "OUTPUT.mov"

Change Aspect Ratio

Resize video to different aspect ratios with letterboxing (black bars).

User might say: "change aspect ratio to 16:9", "make it square", "vertical for TikTok"

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.
