runway
Agent-callable Runway tools — generate images and video from text or images, edit and upscale media, animate characters, generate speech and sound effects, and run marketing recipes, plus track generation jobs. Use when the user mentions Runway or wants to generate, edit, or upscale AI media, even if they don't name Runway explicitly.
npx skills add zapier/connectors --skill runway --agent claude-code
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.

Every generation is **asynchronous** — the generate/audio/recipe tools return a task id and you poll `getTask` for the finished asset URLs (or pass `wait: true` to block until the job finishes). Generated asset URLs **expire in 24-48 hours**, so download and rehost them promptly. ## When to use this - **Generate visual media** — make an image (`generateImage`), a video from an image (`generateVideoFromImage`) or from text (`generateVideoFromText`), restyle a video (`editVideo`), upscale an image or video (`upscaleImage` / `upscaleVideo`), or animat

What does the runway skill do?
Agent-callable Runway tools — generate images and video from text or images, edit and upscale media, animate characters, generate speech and sound effects, and run marketing recipes, plus track generation jobs. Use when the user mentions Runway or wants to generate, edit, or upscale AI media, even if they don't name Runway explicitly.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add zapier/connectors --skill runway --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 zapier/connectors, a repository with 113 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.
