terminal-inserts

terminal-inserts is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Liamrjohnston/remotion-motion-graphics-skill. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,581 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for creating restrained terminal-window video inserts in Remotion, a framework for making videos with code. It covers formats, backgrounds, and a flat visual style without neon or glow effects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when making terminal scenes for demonstrations of coding agents, command-line work, MCP tools, skills, repositories, or automation.
Why use it?
It sets clear visual and input requirements so terminal scenes remain readable, consistent, and suitable for product or workflow demonstrations.

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

terminal-inserts 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 9d 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 — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Terminal Inserts

Use with remotion-best-practices, motion-graphics, and cinematic-camera for Claude Code, Codex, MCP, agents, skills, repository workflows, automation demos, and authentic CLI inserts.

Mandatory intake

Follow the motion-graphics intake gate before coding. If not already specified, ask:

Which format do you want: 4:3 half-screen Instagram insert or 9:16 full-screen Instagram? And which background: warm light, clean dark, light grid, or dark grid?

The terminal window may remain charcoal on any chosen surface. A terminal object does not force the entire scene to be dark.

Absolute visual ban

  • Zero neon, fluorescent green, electric cyan, electric purple, or multicolor AI palettes.
  • Zero glow, bloom, luminous edges, colored shadow, radial color wash, halo, aura, or light spill.
  • No glassmorphism, shiny gradients, cyberpunk atmosphere, scanline spectacle, or “hacker movie” styling.
  • No cyan-purple gradients or green glow around text, cursors, panels, or ASCII words.
  • Use flat ink/charcoal surfaces, neutral borders, neutral shadows, and at most one restrained flat product or ANSI accent.

If any glow or neon appears in a still, reject the render and remove it before delivery.

Goal and references

Make the idea obvious in under two seconds using an authentic terminal metaphor—not a random code screenshot, checklist UI, dashboard, or generic AI animation.

Inspect the actual approved examples before coding:

  • assets/examples/terminal-install.mp4 — command → large terminal word → authentic CLI lines → success state.
  • assets/examples/outreach-sequence-generator.mp4 — command → status → structured generated output.
  • Repository example examples/kickbacks-spinner-terminals.mp4 — multiple CLI sessions in one connected world.

Use contact sheets in references/ when available. Continue their typography, density, spacing, and motion, while enforcing the zero-glow rule above.

Surface and terminal specs

  • Match the selected destination exactly.
  • 4:3 insert: 1440×1080, 30fps unless the user specifies otherwise.
  • 9:16 full-screen: 1080×1920, 30fps unless specified otherwise.
  • Terminal: #101214 / #15181B, charcoal title bar, 1px neutral border, neutral black shadow.
  • Scene surface comes from the user’s selected warm light, clean dark, light grid, or dark grid option.
  • Typography: monospace only inside the terminal. Prefer SF Mono, JetBrains Mono, IBM Plex Mono, or Berkeley Mono fallback.
  • Text: warm white and muted gray.
  • Accent: one restrained flat product color or subdued terminal green such as #4F8F6D; no fluorescent #39FF88.
  • macOS traffic-light dots are allowed as small authentic chrome, not as a decorative palette.

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.
