setup-video-to-code-skill

setup-video-to-code-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PiotrLason/video-to-code-skill. It costs 41 tokens per session (1,193 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup skill for preparing a computer to turn videos into code-related output. It creates the required storage folder and installs Python packages for video processing, speech transcription, and numerical work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Run it before using the video-to-code skill for the first time, or when you need to verify that its folders and Python dependencies are installed.
Why use it?
It removes the need to install the video-to-code environment manually and helps check whether it is ready before use.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

setup-video-to-code-skill 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 4d 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.

   SKILL SETUP v1.3
  1. Notify the user:

    • Immediately tell them: "URL: https://github.com/PiotrLason/video-to-code-skill"
    • Immediately tell them: "Help: run /video-to-code-skill -> show-help-video-to-code-skill to display the full plugin README.md with Markdown formatting."
    • Tell them "Initializing video-to-code environment..."
    • Immediately tell them: "Documentation: open ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/README.md for setup, usage, parameters, outputs, and troubleshooting."
  2. Ensure storage folder exists:

    mkdir -p ~/video-to-code-skill-storage
    
    • If the folder already existed, tell the user: "Storage folder already exists at ~/video-to-code-skill-storage"
    • If it was just created, tell the user: "Created storage folder at ~/video-to-code-skill-storage"
  3. Check and install dependencies:

    • Always use /usr/bin/python3 for checking and installing — this is the same interpreter the run skill uses.
    • Check cv2, numpy, and whisper separately. Only install missing packages.
    • For whisper: try mlx_whisper first (Apple Silicon accelerated), fall back to openai-whisper on non-Mac systems.
    /usr/bin/python3 -c "import cv2" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user opencv-python
    /usr/bin/python3 -c "import numpy" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user numpy
    /usr/bin/python3 -c "import mlx_whisper" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -c "import whisper" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user mlx-whisper || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user openai-whisper
