Agent skills and plugins

claude-video

by bradautomates

A plugin for Claude Code, Codex and other Agent Skills tools that lets an AI assistant "watch" a video. It turns a web link or local file into timestamped frames and a transcript, so the assistant can answer questions about what it saw and heard.

What you can do with it

  • Ask Claude to summarise a YouTube video or a local recording using the /watch command
  • Pull a timestamped transcript and key frames from a video for review or notes
  • Have the AI check a screen recording or product demo and describe what happens in it

Make money with it

Offer a video-to-written-summary or repurposing service, turning clients' videos into transcripts, show notes and blog posts.

An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.

Ways a business could use it

  • Summarise competitor videos, webinars and customer calls into notes without watching them in full
  • Review screen recordings of bugs or tutorials and turn them into written support articles or reports

Can you use it commercially?

Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

Install it as a plugin from the GitHub marketplace inside Claude Code or Claude Desktop, or add it to other agents with an npx skills command; local mode also needs ffmpeg and yt-dlp.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • Does not work in Claude Chat or Cowork, only in Code sessions and compatible agent tools
  • The fastest route needs a Google Gemini API key, and local files are uploaded to Google
  • Transcribing videos without captions may need a Groq or OpenAI key, or a local WhisperX install
  • Downloading videos may breach some platforms' terms of service
