About these video editing skills
Claude can't drag clips around a timeline, but it can drive the tools that do. Editing skills like Nate Herk's Herk Edit Kit and OpenMontage use ffmpeg and transcription to trim dead air, remove fumbled takes, cut reels and Shorts, and translate or caption footage.
For videos built from code, Remotion's skills have Claude write React components that render to MP4, HeyGen's HyperFrames turn HTML into motion graphics, and Video Shotcraft packages cinematic shot recipes for product promos.
