render-vignette
Assemble a short-form 'vignette' ad from clean product cutouts composited over a kinetic background video — birefnet cutout, then a cold-open text card + product carousel + annotated specimen-sheet end card, plus loudnorm + separate-pass music mux. FREE assembly (PIL + rsvg + FFmpeg); the recipe supplies the config and gates the paid BG/cutout/music calls to their own capabilities. Use for the vignette format.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# render-vignette Assemble a short-form 'vignette' ad from clean product cutouts composited over a kinetic background video. Motion lives in the BG video; the product rides on top as a static cutout layer. Music-led, zero VO, sub-12s, loopable — it reads muted because the product label + on-screen copy carry the message. Defaults to the V-CARD structure: a cold-open text card → a product carousel under one shared BG → an annotated specimen-sheet end card. ## Run 1. `strip_product_backgrounds.py` — birefnet cutout of each PDP shot to clean hard-edge alpha (no halo/shadow). 2. `render_overlays.py` — PIL + `rsvg-convert` render the cold-open card (Boska Black, dead-center) + the annotated specimen-sheet end card (brand SVG logo + Space Grotesk annotations) as transparent 1080x1920 PNGs. FREE. 3. `composite_variants.py` — one FFmpeg `filter_complex` per BG variant: BG (palette-aware dim) → cold-open overlay → cutouts (width-anchored, vertically centered `y=(H-h)/2`) → end card. h264 crf20 yuv420p +faststart 30fps. FREE. 4. `music_and_mux.py` — instrumental music bed → `acompressor + loudnorm I=-18:TP=-2:LRA=9` → muxed into every variant in a SEPARATE pass with explicit `-map 0:v:0 -map

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add gooseworks-ai/goose-skills --skill render-vignette --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 gooseworks-ai/goose-skills, a repository with 1,091 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.
