evidence-first-ai-video

evidence-first-ai-video is a skill for Codex from ouyangevan/evidence-first-ai-video-skill. It costs 68 tokens per session (1,952 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for producing Chinese or English AI and technology videos with presenters, narration, demonstrations, or voiceovers. It requires claims to be supported by visible evidence such as real interfaces, relevant footage, and synchronized narration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research, script, source, produce, revise, and quality-check technology explainers, product demos, talking-head videos, and social videos.
Why use it?
It reduces unsupported claims, filler footage, and narration that does not match what viewers see. It also defines checks for research, production, revision, and final media quality.

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

evidence-first-ai-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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/audit_edit_map.py, scripts/validate_manifest.py, tests/test_audit_edit_map.py, …), 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.

AI Tech Talking-Head and Demo Video

Overview

Produce AI and technology talking-head, presenter-led, voiceover, product-demo, and explainer videos in which every shot proves a claim, explains an idea, or advances the story. Apply the Evidence-First method: readable evidence, continuous narration, and deliberate transitions—not a slideshow of cards, a stock-footage montage, or a presenter with filler placed on top.

Use this workflow with any compatible research, media, editing, or video-review tools. Treat prior failed edits as evidence about the process, not as assets that must be preserved.

Required reads and capability routing

  • REQUIRED FOR EVERY BUILD OR REBUILD: Read references/director-playbook.md.
  • REQUIRED BEFORE CHOOSING TOOLS: Read references/tool-routing.md, inventory available capabilities, and select the strongest honest route.
  • REQUIRED FOR WEB RESEARCH: Use an available web or research capability and verify time-sensitive claims with primary sources. If none exists, restrict work to supplied sources and mark unsupported claims blocked.
  • REQUIRED FOR MEDIA ACQUISITION: Use an available browser, recorder, downloader, or media capability, then apply the stricter rules in references/sourcing.md. If none exists, deliver a source plan instead of claiming files were acquired.
  • REQUIRED FOR VIDEO AUTHORING: Use an available code-driven renderer, editor, NLE, or manual handoff route. If none exists, create a dry-run production package and do not claim a preview or render exists.
  • REQUIRED FOR REVISION OR QA: Read references/failure-modes.md and references/qc.md.
  • REQUIRED WHEN A PRESENTER APPEARS: Read references/presenter-editing.md.
  • REQUIRED FOR SCRIPTING: Read references/script-edit.md.
  • REQUIRED FOR EXISTING-VIDEO QA: Use available video-understanding capability when it can inspect the render, then verify manually. Without one, complete the manual passes and mark automated semantic review unavailable.
  • CONDITIONAL: Use a visualization capability only when a comparison, flow, timeline, architecture, or data relationship becomes clearer as a graphic.
  • CONDITIONAL: Use HeyGen for an approved voice or visible presenter. Check authentication, quota, cost, and resolution before generation; never spend or enable auto-recharge without approval.

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.
