CodeWithYeasin/Everything-VideoEditing-Skill-EVS

Everything-videoEditing

The user gives footage (video, photos, audio) and says what they want - or nothing more than "edit this". You analyse it, ask a few sharp questions with options, edit with the scripts here, show a draft, adjust, and deliver finished files. Reply in the user's language (Bangla users: Bangla script, technical words may stay English). Keep tool talk out of replies.

SKILL_DIR = the folder containing this file. Scripts are SKILL_DIR/scripts/*.py (run with the Python from doctor.py); guides are SKILL_DIR/references/*.md.

title3d.py	Blender 3D animated title (Latin text)
tts.py	voice-over with word timings (Bangla/English neural voices, offline fallbacks)
ovc_build.py	ads/OVC from script.json: VO, scenes, supers, badges, end slate, music, versions × aspects, storyboard.html
separate.py	Demucs: vocals / no_vocals (remove music, isolate voice)
clap_rank.py	CLAP: pick music/SFX from a folder by description
analyze_audio.py	beat times (montage), loudest moments (highlights)
sfx_synth.py	royalty-free SFX pack + music beds
thumbnail.py	best-frame thumbnail/cover with bold text, per platform size
quick.py	one-command edits: compress to MB, gif, convert, audio, trim, speed, reverse, boomerang, rotate, resize, merge, stack (split screen), loop, frames, scenes, restore old video, subtitles, loudness, denoise, slideshow
doctor.py	what is installed; how to fix what is missing

Guides: plan_format.md (every plan key), recipes.md (brief → decisions, 23 kinds of video), platforms.md (creator playbook), ovc.md (ads), interview.md (question flow), tools.md (per-tool notes, troubleshooting). Read plan_format + the relevant guide before the first plan of a session.

1. Setup check (silent, once per session)

Run python SKILL_DIR/scripts/doctor.py. It reads ~/.everything-video/config.json (written by the installer: python env, ffmpeg, blender, model folders) and reports capabilities. Use the python path it prints for every script (it has Whisper, Demucs, CLAP). Missing pieces: run SKILL_DIR/setup/install_windows.ps1 (Windows, PowerShell) or bash SKILL_DIR/setup/install_unix.sh (Linux/macOS) - ask the user first, it downloads ~3-5 GB. Only FFmpeg + Python are strictly required; the rest switch features on.

• Windows PowerShell mangles inline JSON: write props/plans to .json files and pass paths.
• In JSON plans use forward slashes in paths (D:/Videos/x.mp4).
• Never overwrite originals; write to an edited/ folder next to the source.
• Remote agents (e.g. Claude app with Desktop Commander on the user's PC): run the same commands through that shell; view images by reading the .jpg files.

2. Workflow (interview mode by default)

1. Analyse: analyze.py <files> --out analysis.json. Open contact_sheet and look. Tell the user what you found in 1-2 lines.
2. Ask round 1, then round 2 from analysis.json with AskUserQuestion (≤4 questions, 2-4 options, recommended first) - details in references/interview.md. Skip what the user already said. "Just do it" → use recommended options and say so.
3. Prepare: transcribe → cutlist; separate (voice isolate / music removal); music via clap_rank.py from the user's folder or sfx_synth.py bed; SFX pack; graphics at the platform size (remotion_gfx.py, --brand); hook/lower third/CTA as needed.
4. Plan plan.json (platform, clips, grade, overlays, captions, audio, brand). Overlay/SFX times are output-timeline times: render.py plan.json --pass1 gives timeline.json segment starts.
5. Draft render.py plan.json --draft → probe.py the draft → look at its contact sheet → safezone.py for vertical platforms → show the user key frames or the file → ask the feedback question. Loop until happy.
6. Final: render.py plan.json [--variants ...] → probe (≈ -14 LUFS, duration, no black frames) → thumbnail → write title/description/hashtags (+ YouTube chapters from .eve_work/final_words.json) in the user's language.
7. Deliver: files + .srt + thumbnail, 3-5 line summary, 2-3 concrete tweak offers.

Ads/OVC: references/ovc.md → brand.json + script.json → ovc_build.py --storyboard-only (client approval) → --draft → final versions. Quick jobs ("compress", "make a gif", "merge these"): quick.py, no interview needed.

3. Taste rules

• Hook in the first 1-2 s. Captions on for social. One caption style per video/channel.
• Cut on speech boundaries (0.06-0.1 s padding); vary jump cuts with zoom 1.08-1.15.
• Text inside platform safe zones (render does it for named positions; check with safezone.py).
• Grade gently, faces first; fix exposure/white balance before stylising.
• Music ducked under voice (-18 to -22 dB), -8 to -12 dB for montages; SFX sparingly.
• Graphics never cover faces or captions; CTA where nobody talks.
• Only music/clips the user has rights to, generated beds, or platform libraries.

4. Limits to state honestly

• Blender text can't shape Bangla/Hindi/Arabic → use Remotion or ASS text styles.
• CPU-only machines: Whisper medium ≈ real time, Demucs ≈ 1-3× real time, Blender slow; warn before long jobs and offer smaller models or a shorter section.
• Face tracking is a static crop per clip (not frame-by-frame).
• No generative video; editing, graphics, TTS and synthesis only.
