video-to-article

video-to-article is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ZJU-REAL/Easel. It costs 89 tokens per session (1,262 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A video-to-article workflow that transcribes spoken content and reshapes it into a social-media note, article, or answer, with still images taken from the video.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with talks, livestreams, Vlogs, and spoken videos to create Xiaohongshu notes, WeChat articles, Zhihu answers, or general written posts.
Why use it?
It turns one spoken recording into written content without making you manually transcribe and reorganize it.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python skills/shared/scripts/asr.py transcribe -i input.mp4 --format json \.

Good fit Use it with talks, livestreams, Vlogs, and spoken videos to create Xiaohongshu notes, WeChat articles, Zhihu answers, or general written posts.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

video-to-article 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 8d 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.

视频转图文(视频 → 笔记/文章)

把视频复用成图文内容:转录 → 结构化成篇 → 抽帧配图。转录与抽帧走确定性脚本 (asr.py / video_ops.py),结构化成文由你(LLM)完成——这是本 SKILL 的核心价值。

只出字幕文件见 auto-subtitle;翻译字幕见 subtitle-translate; 出成套小红书卡片见 xhs-note-creator;纯文案润色见 text-polisher

输入

字段 必填 说明
视频文件 口播/讲座/直播/Vlog(没给就问)
目标形态 小红书笔记(默认)/ 公众号文章 / 知乎回答 / 通用图文
配图数量 从视频抽几张配图(默认 3-6,按内容节点)

输出(outputs/主题名/

  • article.md — 成篇图文(标题 + 正文 + 小标题/要点 + 金句 + 话题标签)
  • assets/frame-*.jpg — 抽取的配图
  • assets/transcript.txt / assets/transcript.json — 转录原文与时间轴(备查)

执行步骤

脚本路径(相对项目根):skills/shared/scripts/asr.pyskills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py

1. 语音转录(带时间轴)

python skills/shared/scripts/asr.py transcribe -i input.mp4 --format json \
  -o outputs/主题名/assets/transcript.json
python skills/shared/scripts/asr.py transcribe -i input.mp4 --format txt \
  -o outputs/主题名/assets/transcript.txt

(首次跑 ASR 需外网代理下模型,见 auto-subtitle 前置说明。)

2. 结构化成图文(你来做)

读转录,按目标形态改写成图文,不是照抄口语

  • 提炼结构:口语流水账 → 清晰的标题 + 3-6 个小标题/要点段落。
  • 去口水:删"然后、就是、那个"等口头禅,书面化但保留个人风格。
  • 抓金句:把视频里最有价值的观点提成金句/加粗句。
  • 按形态适配:小红书(emoji、短段、闺蜜语气、话题标签)/ 公众号(成文、有起承转合)/ 知乎(专业、有逻辑链)。字数与排版参考 post-formatter / social-content 规范。
  • 写入 article.md,并在文中标注"【配图1:xx画面 @ 02:15】"指明每张配图对应的视频时间点。

3. 抽取配图

按第 2 步标注的时间点,逐个抽帧:

python skills/shared/scripts/video_ops.py frame -i input.mp4 \
  -o outputs/主题名/assets/frame-01.jpg --time 00:02:15 --width 1080

挑画面清晰、有信息量的时间点(避免糊帧/转场帧)。

4.(可选)成套卡片

需要做成小红书卡片组时,把 article.md 交给 xhs-note-creatorcard-xiaohongshu

Profile 感知

  • 有 Profile:目标形态默认按 platforms.md 主平台;语气/称呼/emoji 尺度贴合 style.md; 话题标签贴合账号垂类;合规底线遵守 preferences.md
  • 无 Profile:默认小红书笔记形态 + 中性口语风,末尾提示可提供 Profile 定制语气。

规则

  1. 改写不是照搬转录——口语要书面化、结构化,去口水词。
  2. 配图从视频真实画面抽取,时间点由内容决定,避免糊帧。
  3. 不编造视频里没有的信息;转录不清处标注"[听不清]"而非臆测。
  4. 保留说话人的核心观点与个人风格,别改成千篇一律的 AI 腔(可再过 text-polisher)。
  5. 最终 article.mdoutputs/主题名/,转录和抽帧等中间件放 outputs/主题名/assets/

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.
