wjs-syncing-multicam

wjs-syncing-multicam is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jianshuo/claude-skills. It costs 122 tokens per session (3,009 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for aligning recordings of the same event made by multiple cameras, phones, or audio recorders onto one timeline.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to align each recording with a reference recording, including sources that cover only part of the event, and check the remaining timing difference.
Why use it?
It removes the need to synchronize files by hand. It writes small timing sidecar files while leaving the original recordings untouched and without re-encoding them.

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

wjs-syncing-multicam 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

wjs-syncing-multicam

Compute a single time offset for each multi-source recording of the same event using audio cross-correlation, and emit a .sync.json sidecar next to each original. Originals are never modified, copied, or re-encoded. Downstream tools use -itsoffset to apply the offset at consume time.

Setup & commands

The implementation lives in the open-source polysync pip package (https://pypi.org/project/polysync/ · https://github.com/jianshuo/polysync) — this skill no longer ships its own scripts. Ensure it's installed, then drive it via its CLI:

python3 -m pip install -U polysync      # needs ffmpeg/ffprobe on PATH

polysync sync   REFERENCE SOURCE        # align SOURCE to REFERENCE, write sidecars
polysync sync   REFERENCE SOURCE --partial   # source covers only part of the session
polysync verify REFERENCE SOURCE SOURCE.sync.json   # independent residual check

Run one polysync sync per non-reference angle (reference first, same reference each time). The sections below document the algorithm, the sidecar schema, and the gotchas baked into the package — read them to interpret output and choose flags.

Design principle — sidecar over re-encode

Earlier versions of this skill produced *_synced.MOV files by trimming + re-encoding to bake the offset into the file. We removed that:

  • Disk — a 75-min 4K shoot from 3 cameras is 60+ GB. Re-encoded synced copies double that for no information gain.
  • Quality — every re-encode is lossy. The originals are the source of truth; sidecars are reversible metadata.
  • Speed_synced.MOV generation took 10+ min per file on Apple Silicon; sidecar emission takes seconds.
  • Composability — any downstream tool (polysync edit, NLE import, ffmpeg one-liners) reads the sidecar and applies the offset itself. No tool-specific file format lock-in.

When NOT to use

  • Single-camera footage — nothing to sync to. For splitting one source into clips, use video-segmentation.
  • Sources already aligned in an NLE timeline — don't fight the editor.
  • For the auto-edit / cut / PiP rendering step that comes AFTER sync, use wjs-editing-multicam (consumes these sidecars).
