Skill0 starsChanged 48 days agoMITView on GitHub
Video editing and delivery with Kdenlive (desktop) and MLT/melt + ffmpeg 8 (x264/x265/SVT-AV1/VP9, VAAPI when a GPU is available) running headlessly in a reproducible container. Use when the user wants to edit a video (tutorial, demo, vlog, promo, reel), cut/trim/concatenate clips, add titles/subtitles/music, fix or normalize audio, export for YouTube/LinkedIn/Instagram/TikTok/web, make GIFs, pull thumbnails, or render a Kdenlive project from the terminal.

niloykumarbarmanSkillagent-sort
Build an evidence-backed ECC install plan for a specific repo by sorting skills, commands, rules, hooks, and extras into DAILY vs LIBRARY buckets using parallel repo-aware review passes. Use when ECC should be trimmed to what a project actually needs instead of loading the full bundle.

ysyecustSkillbrand-discovery
Use when a brand needs to discover or articulate its identity through structured multi-session interviews. Covers purpose, positioning, audience, personality, voice, narrative, and founder-brand tension across 8 modules using laddering, 5 Whys, and projective techniques. Produces a resumable session with disk-persisted state and a master brandbook (90_SYNTHESIS.md).

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 49 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 46
Keep masters (archive preset or lossless), deliver platform versions from them.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 49 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Video editing (ffmpeg · melt · Kdenlive)
Scripts run inside the design-skills container automatically (bash <skill-dir>/scripts/<name>.sh …, see
design-sandbox). render-project.sh needs the full image (melt); the ffmpeg scripts run in core.
Toolkit
| Tool | Use it for | CLI (in the container) |
| ffmpeg 8 | Encode, convert, trim, loudness, GIFs; x264, x265, SVT-AV1, VP9 | ffmpeg, ffprobe |
| melt 7 (MLT) (full image) | Kdenlive's render engine — renders .kdenlive projects headlessly | melt |
| Kdenlive | Multi-track editing: cuts, titles, transitions, color, audio, subtitles | desktop app (Windows/macOS/Linux) |
| Blender VSE (full image) | Backup editor; 3D/motion-graphic inserts | 3d-modeling skill |
| Inkscape / ImageMagick | Thumbnails, lower-thirds, title cards as PNG with alpha | graphic-design skill |
Hardware encoding: on a Linux host with a GPU render node (/dev/dri), the container gets it automatically and
encode.sh uses VAAPI H.264/HEVC. Everywhere else it encodes in software — same result, slower. --sw forces software
(smaller files at equal quality). Disable GPU passthrough with DS_GPU=0.
Scripts
| Script | What it does |
check.sh | ffmpeg encoders, VAAPI availability, melt |
encode.sh <in> <preset> [out] [--sw] | Presets: web, youtube, vertical (1080×1920 blurred fill), square, archive (HEVC), preview |
loudnorm.sh <in> [--target -14] [--denoise] [out] | Two-pass EBU R128 loudness normalization (video copied untouched), optional noise reduction |
gif.sh <in> [--start S] [--dur D] [--width W] [--fps F] | Palette-optimized GIF + a far smaller WebM for READMEs/docs |
thumbs.sh <in> [count] | Evenly spaced frame grabs + a storyboard sheet for picking a thumbnail |
render-project.sh <project.kdenlive> [out.mp4] [--crf 20] | Renders a Kdenlive/MLT project with melt, no GUI |
Guides
references/kdenlive-workflow.md— project setup, proxy clips, the edit (J/K/L, razor, ripple), titles, color, audio, subtitles, render.references/delivery-specs.md— per-platform specs, loudness targets, and the ffmpeg one-liners worth knowing.
Rules of thumb
- Project profile = your footage (usually 1080p 30 or 60 fps). Use proxy clips for 4K or long screen recordings.
- Story first: rough cut → fine cut → B-roll/zooms → titles → color → audio → export.
- Audio matters more than video: −14 LUFS for YouTube/social, −16 LUFS for voice/podcast.
- Keep masters (
archivepreset or lossless), deliver platform versions from them. - Burn captions for social (most people watch muted); upload
.srtseparately for YouTube. render-project.shneeds the media paths inside the project to be reachable — keep media next to the project (Kdenlive: Project → Archive Project).

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
