Video & Animation

Translate an existing Remotion (React-based) video composition into a HyperFrames HTML composition. Use ONLY when the user explicitly asks to port, convert, migrate, translate, or rewrite a Remotion composition as HyperFrames (e.g. "port my Remotion project to HyperFrames"). Do NOT use when (a) authoring a NEW HyperFrames composition (even if A/B-testing a Remotion video); (b) Remotion is mentioned in passing; (c) Remotion code is shared as reference, not for translation; (d) the user wants "the same video as my Remotion one" without explicitly asking to migrate the source — treat as a fresh HyperFrames build. When in doubt, default to the `hyperframes` skill. Detects unsupported patterns (useState, useEffect side effects, async calculateMetadata, third-party React component libraries, `@remotion/lambda`) and recommends the runtime interop escape hatch instead of a lossy translation.

CSS animation adapter patterns for HyperFrames. Use when authoring CSS keyframes, animation-delay based timing, animation-fill-mode, animation-play-state, or CSS-only motion that HyperFrames must seek deterministically during preview and rendering.

When the user wants help creating, scheduling, or optimizing social media content for LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, or other platforms. Also use when the user mentions 'LinkedIn post,' 'Twitter thread,' 'social media,' 'content calendar,' 'social scheduling,' 'engagement,' 'viral content,' 'what should I post,' 'repurpose this content,' 'tweet ideas,' 'LinkedIn carousel,' 'social media strategy,' 'grow my following,' 'TikTok video,' 'Reels,' 'Shorts,' 'video script,' 'video hook,' 'short-form video,' or 'create a reel.' Use this for social media content creation, repurposing, scheduling, and short-form video scripting. For broader content strategy, see content-strategy. For paid video ads, see ad-creative.

Pushes interfaces past conventional limits with technically ambitious implementations — shaders, spring physics, scroll-driven reveals, 60fps animations. Use when the user wants to wow, impress, go all-out, or make something that feels extraordinary.

Add moments of joy, personality, and unexpected touches that make interfaces memorable and enjoyable to use. Elevates functional to delightful. Use when the user asks to add polish, personality, animations, micro-interactions, delight, or make an interface feel fun or memorable.

Capture a website and create a HyperFrames video from it. Use when: (1) a user provides a URL and wants a video, (2) someone says "capture this site", "turn this into a video", "make a promo from my site", (3) the user wants a social ad, product tour, or any video based on an existing website, (4) the user shares a link and asks for any kind of video content. Even if the user just pastes a URL — this is the skill to use.

GSAP animation reference for HyperFrames. Covers gsap.to(), from(), fromTo(), easing, stagger, defaults, timelines (gsap.timeline(), position parameter, labels, nesting, playback), and performance (transforms, will-change, quickTo). Use when writing GSAP animations in HyperFrames compositions.

This skill encodes Emil Kowalski's philosophy on UI polish, component design, animation decisions, and the invisible details that make software feel great.

Diagnoses and fixes UI performance across loading speed, rendering, animations, images, and bundle size. Use when the user mentions slow, laggy, janky, performance, bundle size, load time, or wants a faster, smoother experience.

Review a feature and enhance it with purposeful animations, micro-interactions, and motion effects that improve usability and delight. Use when the user mentions adding animation, transitions, micro-interactions, motion design, hover effects, or making the UI feel more alive.

Create video compositions, animations, title cards, overlays, captions, voiceovers, audio-reactive visuals, and scene transitions in HyperFrames HTML. Use when asked to build any HTML-based video content, add captions or subtitles synced to audio, generate text-to-speech narration, create audio-reactive animation (beat sync, glow, pulse driven by music), add animated text highlighting (marker sweeps, hand-drawn circles, burst lines, scribble, sketchout), or add transitions between scenes (crossfades, wipes, reveals, shader transitions). Covers composition authoring, timing, media, and the full video production workflow. For dev-loop CLI commands (init, lint, inspect, preview, render) see the hyperframes-cli skill; for asset preprocessing commands (tts, transcribe, remove-background) see the hyperframes-media skill.

Teaches the AI to design like a high-end agency. Defines the exact fonts, spacing, shadows, card structures, and animations that make a website feel expensive. Blocks all the common defaults that make AI designs look cheap or generic.

Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into `${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/<name>/` and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as `runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit` to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no `$imagegen`, no OPENAI_API_KEY required, only RUNCOMFY_TOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.

Generate cinematic short-form video with ByteDance Seedance 2.0 Pro on RunComfy. Documents Seedance 2.0 Pro's strengths (multi-modal references — up to 9 images, 3 videos, 3 audio — synchronized in-pass audio with natural lip-sync, cinematic motion refinement), the 4–15s duration schema, and when to route to HappyHorse 1.0 / Wan 2.7 / Kling instead. Calls `runcomfy run bytedance/seedance-v2/pro` through the local RunComfy CLI. Triggers on "seedance", "seedance 2", "seedance v2", "seedance pro", "bytedance video", or any explicit ask to generate video with this model.

Lip-sync a face to a specific audio track on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI. Routes across ByteDance OmniHuman (audio-driven full-body avatar from a portrait + audio), Sync Labs sync v2 / Pro (state-of-the-art mouth sync onto a video), Kling lipsync (audio-to- video and text-to-video with synced speech), and Creatify lipsync. The skill picks the right endpoint for the user's actual intent — portrait still + audio (avatar-style), source video + audio (mouth- swap on existing footage), or generate-and-sync from a script. Triggers on "lip sync", "lipsync", "make this video speak", "match audio to mouth", "dub video", "sync lips to voice", "Sync Labs", "voiceover sync", or any explicit ask to drive a face's mouth from an audio track.

Run any model on RunComfy from the command line. The `runcomfy` CLI is one binary, one auth, hundreds of model endpoints — image generation, image edit, video generation, image-to-video, lip-sync, face swap, video edit, inpainting, outpainting, extend, ControlNet, relight, upscale, LoRA training and more. Submit a request, poll for status, download the output. This skill teaches the agent how to install, authenticate, discover model schemas, invoke models, stream / poll / no-wait, script in JSON output mode, and handle errors. Triggers on "runcomfy cli", "install runcomfy", "runcomfy login", "runcomfy run", "runcomfy whoami", "runcomfy api", or any explicit ask to call a RunComfy model from a script or terminal. Sibling skills (ai-image-generation, ai-video-generation, image-edit, video-edit, face-swap, lipsync, image-to-video, image-inpainting, image-outpainting, video-extend, controlnet-pose, relight) all dispatch through this CLI.

Generate text-to-video with Wan 2.7 (Wan-AI's flagship motion model) on RunComfy. Documents Wan 2.7's strengths (multi-reference conditioning, audio-driven lip-sync via `audio_url`, smoother transitions, prompt expansion), the duration / resolution / aspect-ratio schema, and when to route to HappyHorse 1.0 / Seedance 2.0 / Kling / LTX 2 instead. Calls `runcomfy run wan-ai/wan-2-7/text-to-video` through the local RunComfy CLI. Triggers on "wan", "wan 2.7", "wan-2-7", "wan video", or any explicit ask to generate video with this model.

Kling 3.0 video generation on RunComfy. Kling 3.0 (also called Kling V3.0) is Kuaishou Technology's third-generation multi-shot video model with native synchronized audio and consistent character identity across shots. This skill covers all six Kling 3.0 endpoints, spanning three rendering tiers (Standard, Pro, 4K) and two modes (text-to-video, image-to-video). Calls runcomfy run kling/kling-3.0/<tier>/<mode> through the local RunComfy CLI. Triggers on "kling", "kling 3.0", "kling v3", "kling pro", "kling 4k", "kling text to video", "kling image to video", or any explicit ask to generate or animate with Kling 3.0.

Edit existing video on RunComfy — this skill is a smart router that matches the user's intent to the right edit model in the RunComfy catalog. Picks Wan 2.7 Edit-Video (general restyle / background swap / packaging swap, identity + motion preservation), Kling 2.6 Pro Motion Control (transfer precise motion from a reference video to a target character), or Lucy Edit Restyle (lightweight identity-stable restyle / outfit swap). Bundles each model's documented prompting patterns so the skill gets sharper edits without burning iterations on the wrong model. Calls `runcomfy run <vendor>/<model>/<endpoint>` through the local RunComfy CLI. Triggers on "video edit", "edit video", "restyle video", "swap video background", "motion control", "outfit swap video", or any explicit ask to transform a video.

Region edits across video frames on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI — remove an object that appears across many frames, clean up wires or watermarks, replace a region with matching motion. Routes across Wan 2-7 edit-video (default, prompt-driven region edits with spatial language), Lucy Edit Restyle (identity-stable region-aware restyle), and Seedream 4-0 edit-sequential (when treating the clip as a frame stack). Picks the right route based on whether the change is prose-driven, identity-locked, or needs frame-by-frame still inpaint chained into a video. Triggers on "video inpaint", "video inpainting", "remove from video", "mask region in video", "clean up video", "remove object from clip", "video patch", "frame-by-frame edit", "remove watermark from video", "remove passing person", or any explicit ask to edit a region across video frames.

Animate any still image on RunComfy — this skill is a smart router that matches the user's intent to the right i2v model in the RunComfy catalog. Picks HappyHorse 1.0 I2V (Arena #1, native audio, identity preservation) for general animations, Wan 2.7 with `audio_url` for custom-voiceover lip-sync, or Seedance 2.0 Pro for multi-modal animation from image + reference video + reference audio. Bundles each model's documented prompting patterns so the caller gets sharper output without burning iterations on the wrong model. Calls `runcomfy run <vendor>/<model>/image-to-video` (or endpoint variant) through the local RunComfy CLI. Triggers on "image to video", "image-to-video", "i2v", "animate image", "make this move", or any explicit ask to turn a still into video.

Extend or continue an existing video clip on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI. Routes to Google Veo 3-1's `extend-video` and `fast/extend-video` endpoints — pick the source video plus a prompt describing what should happen next, and the model produces a clip that continues the original with consistent motion, lighting, and subject identity. Use when the user has a short Veo clip and wants it longer, or wants a chained narrative built shot-by-shot from a single seed clip. Triggers on "extend video", "continue video", "longer video", "video extend", "make this clip longer", "Veo extend", "chain video shots", "video continuation", or any explicit ask to take an existing video and add more frames after it.

Swap a face / character into video or images on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI. Routes across community Wan 2-2 Animate (audio-driven character animation + identity swap), GPT Image 2 Edit (single-shot precise face swap on still images via reference composition), Nano Banana Edit (batch identity-preserving swap), Flux Kontext (single-ref high-fidelity local face edit), and Kling 2-6 Motion Control Pro (transfer motion from one performance onto a target character). Picks the right model for the user's actual intent — single still vs video, full character vs face only, dialog scene vs silent motion. Triggers on "face swap", "swap face", "deepfake", "face replacement", "character swap", "head swap", "put X's face on Y", "make this video star X", "replace the actor in this video", "swap the character in the photo", "deepfake video", "ReActor alternative", or any explicit ask to substitute one identity for another.

Video outpainting on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI — extend the spatial canvas of a video, change aspect ratio (9:16 vertical to 16:9 horizontal or vice versa), add environment beyond the original frame while preserving the central action. Routes prompt-shaped spatial extension through Wan 2-7 edit-video and points the agent at dedicated ComfyUI outpaint workflows when seam quality matters for hero delivery. Triggers on "video outpaint", "video outpainting", "extend video canvas", "expand video frame", "uncrop video", "aspect ratio change", "vertical to horizontal video", "16:9 from 9:16", "TikTok to YouTube", or any explicit ask to extend a video spatially beyond its original frame.
