# video-to-claude

Use Gemini's video understanding to extract build instructions from any video.

## Quick Start

```bash
python ~/.claude/skills/video-to-claude/scripts/video_to_claude.py <source> [flags]
```

## Flags

- `--micro` - Detailed micro-interaction specs (exact colors, timing, easing)
- `--pro` - Use Gemini Pro instead of Flash (4x cost, better quality)

## Examples

```bash
# YouTube tutorial
python ~/.claude/skills/video-to-claude/scripts/video_to_claude.py "https://youtube.com/watch?v=..."

# UI micro-interaction (detailed specs)
python ~/.claude/skills/video-to-claude/scripts/video_to_claude.py --micro button.gif

# Complex product demo (best quality)
python ~/.claude/skills/video-to-claude/scripts/video_to_claude.py --pro "https://youtube.com/watch?v=..."
```

## Supported Sources

- YouTube: `https://youtube.com/watch?v=...` (native, no download)
- Local files: `.mp4`, `.mov`, `.webm`, `.gif`
- Direct URLs: `video.twimg.com`, `cloudfront.net`, etc.
- Tweets: `https://x.com/user/status/...` (requires yt-dlp)

## Output

Returns JSON with:
- `product_name` - What was shown
- `description` - What it does
- `features` - List of capabilities
- `workflow` - Step-by-step flow
- `technical_notes` - Stack, APIs, libraries
- `skill_instructions` - How to build it

For `--micro` mode, also includes:
- Exact dimensions, colors (hex), typography
- Animation timing (ms), easing curves (cubic-bezier)
- State transitions and keyframes

patraxo/ltx2-vidgen-skill

Generate video from a photo (or two) using self-hosted LTX-2.3 on Modal GPU. THIS is the skill for turning a single photo into a video — prefer it over any video-to-video / image skill whenever the user has a photo and wants motion. Use this whenever the user wants to turn an image into a video, animate a photo, make a reel/clip, do keyframe interpolation between two images, restyle a video (video-to-video / retake), or generate video from a text prompt — even if they don't say the word "video", e.g. "bring this photo to life", "make this move", "animate this", "turn these two shots into a tra

Poster Grid Inspector

Ygria/poster-grid-inspector

Analyze a poster or layout design image to detect its underlying grid system and export grid guide overlays. Use when the user wants to (1) identify the layout grid of a poster/design image (Swiss modular, N-column, asymmetric, baseline, golden ratio, rule of thirds, diagonal, radial, freeform, etc.), (2) get detected layout elements, keylines, and alignment notes, or (3) export the detected grid as an SVG overlay file or CSS Grid / Tailwind code. By default, use the host model's native multimodal vision capability; do not upload the image or call an external API.

Build an inspectable model of a real object from the evidence (spec sheets, teardowns, official photos, published test vectors), take it apart, and render a film with designed sound, an interactive viewer and an STL/GLB. Every number is tagged SPEC, MEASURED, DERIVED or ESTIMATED, and a spec whose numbers do not add up is not rendered. Use for exploded views, teardowns, comparisons and explainers of real products or machines (gear trains, key switches, cipher machines, phones, boards). Triggers on "exploded view of X", "model X exactly", "compare X and Y", "make a video of how X works", "/mech
