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

promo-video scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 3 executable files (scripts/beatmap.mjs, scripts/frames.sh, scripts/setup.sh), 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 364 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/promo-video — website URL + a few answers → finished premium video

Core promise: every video gets an ORIGINAL template — no exceptions for "just the bones". Never reuse a previous product's design system, and never start by copying an old composition file as scaffolding. Research the brand, then design a new visual world for it — new stage, new palette, new hero objects, new motion language.

Anti-fingerprint checklist (learned the hard way: a user instantly recognized their "new" video as a re-skin of an earlier product's template even though every color and object had changed). Structural DNA leaks through these five channels — ALL of them must differ from previous videos:

  1. Type treatment — e.g. tracked-uppercase letterspacing-collapse reads as the same video even in a new font/color. Pick a different signature (typewriter+caret, inverted pills, serif contrast, mask slides…).
  2. Layout archetype — kicker + hairline rule + centered headline is a fingerprint. Vary the grid: corner captions, left-anchored, split-screen.
  3. Payoff physics — shockwave rings + rising particles = same video. Other verbs: full-screen invert flash, list reorder slam, split-wipe, letterpress stamp, build-out from a single pixel.
  4. Scene-wrapper motion — the in/out transition style (zoom-through blur vs lateral sway vs vertical roll) is felt more than seen; change it.
  5. Recurring stage prop — dust + radial spotlight vs grain + ghost object.

The reliable way to be original: derive the world from the product's CORE INTERACTION, not from a generic "premium dark stage". A search product → the film lives inside typed queries and result rows; a jeweller → a showroom; a courier → parcels and routes. When a draft feels derivative, this is the fix.

Two exceptions:

  1. The user explicitly asks for a series/sequel cut matching an earlier video of THEIR OWN product (then import that video's exported primitives).
  2. Reference-clone mode — the user provides a reference video and says "make it exactly like this" / "same video as reference". Then DON'T design original: extract frames with ffmpeg (or a video-watching skill if you have one), READ the frames, and map its shot grammar — beat list, type treatment (size/weight/two-tone/pills), stage, hero-shot types, transition style, dark→light shifts, outro pattern. Clone that grammar shot-for-shot, adapted to the product's brand + real features. "Inspired by" is NOT what they asked for — match the structure literally. (Learned the hard way: several rejected "inspired" drafts before realizing the user wanted a literal clone.)

STUDIO HOME: ~/promo-video-studio — everything happens there, regardless of the current working directory. If it doesn't exist, bootstrap it by running this skill's setup script (auto-installs ffmpeg/Node, scaffolds the Remotion studio, copies the helper scripts in): bash <skill-dir>/scripts/setup.sh. If that's unavailable, do it manually: npx create-video@latest ~/promo-video-studio (blank template, TypeScript), then copy this skill's scripts/ (beatmap.mjs, frames.sh) into ~/promo-video-studio/scripts/. When done, always copy the final MP4 to the user's working directory too.

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.
