A tool for turning an ordered set of images into a slideshow video with optional transitions and audio. It can use one shared audio track or match each image with its own audio file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create silent slideshows, add background music or narration, apply image transitions, and keep image order predictable from filenames.

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

create-slide-show-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 16d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/create_slideshow.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 Builder - Create Slide Show Video

This skill creates a slideshow video from images in natural filename order. It supports three audio modes:

  1. Silent (--audio-mode none): images only, with xfade transitions.
  2. Background audio (--audio-mode background --audio <file>): single shared audio, trimmed or looped to slideshow length; xfade transitions between images.
  3. Per-image audio (--audio-mode per-image): each image is paired with an audio file having the same stem (e.g., a.png + a.mp3/a.wav); the image's on-screen duration equals the matching audio's duration. Audios are concatenated in natural image order. No xfade transitions in this mode.

When to Use This Skill

  • User asks to generate a slideshow video from images.
  • User requests transition effects between slides.
  • User wants optional background audio matched to slideshow duration.
  • User wants each image to be narrated/scored by its own audio file (per-image audio mode).
  • User needs predictable image ordering like 1.png to 11.png or a01.png to a15.png.

Your Roles in This Skill

  • Backend Developer (Engineer): Build and run the slideshow generation command and helper script.
  • QA Engineer: Validate ordering, timing, transition behavior, and media output.
  • Technical Writer: Confirm command arguments and output behavior are documented clearly.

Role Communication

As an expert in your assigned roles, you must announce your actions before performing them using the following format:

As a {Role} [and {Role}, ...], I will {action description}

This communication pattern ensures transparency and allows for human-in-the-loop oversight at key decision points.

Instructions

Follow these steps in order.

Step 1: Collect Inputs

  • Confirm the input image directory.
  • Confirm output video path.
  • Confirm audio mode:
    • none: silent slideshow.
    • background: a single audio file shared across the slideshow (requires --audio).
    • per-image: each image has a matching audio file with the same stem (a.png ↔ a.mp3/a.wav). Supported audio extensions: .mp3 .wav .m4a .aac .ogg .flac. Audio dir defaults to --images-dir; override with --per-image-audio-dir.
  • For none / background: confirm image duration (default 3.0 seconds), transition type, and transition duration.
  • For per-image: each image's duration is auto-derived from its audio's duration (use ffprobe); transitions are disabled.
  • Optional: confirm audio fade-out duration (default 2.0 seconds; set to 0 to disable). Applies at the end of the final audio in all modes.
  • Optional: confirm output format: mp4, webp, or both (default both).
  • For background: confirm audio fit mode:
    • trim: trim/pad audio to slideshow length
    • loop: loop audio then trim to slideshow length

Changes

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.
