video-compose
Generates and prompts video clips on the filmmaking canvas. Use when the user asks to generate, render, animate, continue, restyle, edit, shoot, or compose a video clip; render script or shot notes as video; animate a storyboard, starting frame, image, character, location, or reference; use image, video, audio, storyboard, starting-frame, or voice refs; compose an ad, brand film, product promo, music-video shot, or video sequence; or before calling generate_video.js. Owns video CLI flags, refs, prompt construction, audio-ref handling, and video-specific failure hints.
npx skills add Utopai-Research/pai-pro --skill video-compose --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.
Intent dispatcher. Patterns name trigger, call, edges, and prompt reference. ## Hard defaults - Stage by default per `PROJECT_AGENT.md`. - Audio on by default; pass `--no-audio` only for explicit silent/no-audio requests. Trailer/portrait/cinematic framing is NOT a trigger; audio is the baseline, not optional polish. - Reference-to-clip default: use available character/variant/location/voice refs

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Utopai-Research/pai-pro --skill video-compose --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 Utopai-Research/pai-pro, a repository with 320 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.
