livestream-event-production
Use this skill to plan, direct, troubleshoot, and hand off provider-independent live or hybrid livestream event productions, including run of show, crew, capture, audio, graphics, switching, guests, encoding, ingest, transport choices, latency, redundancy, accessibility, moderation, monitoring, incidents, recording, and delivery.

What it does
This skill guides an AI agent to plan, direct, rehearse, run, troubleshoot, or hand off a live or hybrid livestream event. It covers a broad range of production aspects (run of show, crew, capture, audio, graphics, switching, guests, encoding, ingest, transport choices, latency, redundancy, accessibility, moderation, monitoring, incidents, recording, and delivery) and aims to produce a practical production plan rather than a single-platform integration.
How it works
The skill instructs the agent to produce artifacts such as an event brief, run of show, crew plan, signal plan, network/transport plan, rehearsal/go/no-go plan, and incident handoff package. It outlines sections for cameras/sources, audio, graphics, and encoding/ingest/delivery. It includes explicit technical guidance on RTMP/RTMPS usage with platform notes (e.g., YouTube ingest), SRT usage with configuration concepts, and HLS/WebRTC considerations. It provides production heuristics (e.g., separate channels for technical and presenter communications, holding slate readiness, and prioritizing host audio in failure scenarios) and planning questions about live/ hybrid configurations, audience size, latency requirements, captions, accessibility, and failure tolerance. It also defines roles (Producer, Technical director, Stream engineer, Audio engineer, Graphics operator, Stage manager/guest wrangler, Moderator, Caption lead, Recording/media manager) and the corresponding responsibilities.
When to use it
Use when the user needs an AI agent to plan, direct, rehearse, run, troubleshoot, or hand off a live or hybrid livestream event. The skill targets events such as webinars, conferences, town halls, launches, panels, fundraisers, worship services, performances, creator shows, press briefings, or multi-room hybrid events. It prescribes creating a comprehensive, provider-independent production plan rather than platform-specific configurations.
What it can touch
It references and emphasizes several tools and concepts used in production planning and execution, including RTMP/RTMPS ingest paths, SRT for contribution over variable networks, and HLS/WebRTC for delivery and interaction. It specifies evaluation of latency, transport paths, backup ingests, encryption/passphrases for SRT, and monitoring of stream health, but does not enumerate executable commands beyond describing required planning artifacts and configurations. All references to tools and protocols appear within the described planning and operational guidance.
Caveats
The skill distinguishes between live/interactive delivery and post-produced editing, and instructs avoiding purely cinematic or non-live editing tasks. It notes that WebRTC and SRT behaviors depend on implementation, and advises rehearsing on the same network/path. It provides platform-agnostic guidance and cautions that exact platform behavior, encryption, and codec parameters must be verified with current documentation per platform. It does not guarantee specific platform outcomes or integrations.
# Livestream Event Production Use this skill when the user needs an AI agent to plan, direct, rehearse, run, troubleshoot, or hand off a live or hybrid livestream event. The event may be a webinar, conference session, town hall, launch, panel, class, fundraiser, worship service, performance, creator show, press briefing, or multi-room hybrid event. This is a provider-independent production skill.
What does the livestream-event-production skill do?
Use this skill to plan, direct, troubleshoot, and hand off provider-independent live or hybrid livestream event productions, including run of show, crew, capture, audio, graphics, switching, guests, encoding, ingest, transport choices, latency, redundancy, accessibility, moderation, monitoring, incidents, recording, and delivery.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add calesthio/generative-media-skills --skill livestream-event-production --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From calesthio/generative-media-skills, a repository with 112 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
