# Video Highlight Skill

Use this skill to convert a long video into a structured content product: highlight clips, a recap page, a meeting summary, a course index, or a report.

## Workflow

Before running commands, locate the skill directory that contains this `SKILL.md`. Call that path `<skill_dir>`. The helper script must exist at `<skill_dir>/scripts/video_highlight.py`. If `scripts/video_highlight.py` is missing, the skill installation is incomplete; reinstall or clone the full repository before continuing.

1. Create a work directory.
   - Run `python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/video_highlight.py init-project --output <workdir> --scenario <highlight|meeting|course|live|report>`.
   - Keep all generated files in that work directory.

2. Inspect the source video.
   - Run `python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/video_highlight.py probe <video> --output <workdir>/metadata.json`.
   - Use duration, dimensions, and stream metadata to choose frame sampling and clip limits.

3. Extract analysis inputs.
   - Run `python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/video_highlight.py extract-audio <video> --output <workdir>/audio.wav` for transcription.
   - Run `python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/video_highlight.py sample-frames <video> --output-dir <workdir>/frames --interval 30` for visual review.
   - Lower `--interval` to 5-15 seconds for sports, demos, UI walkthroughs, or visually dense videos.

4. Build a timestamped index.
   - Transcribe audio with the available speech or multimodal model.
