Requirements

Required:

ffmpeg / ffprobe — core video processing

Optional:

whisper — local transcription for captions
realesrgan — AI upscaling

Quick Reference

Situation	Load
Platform specs (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram)	`platforms.md`
FFmpeg commands by task	`commands.md`
Quality/compression settings	`quality.md`
Workflow by use case	`workflows.md`

Core Capabilities

Task	Method
Convert/compress	FFmpeg (see `commands.md`)
Generate captions	Whisper → SRT/VTT
Change aspect ratio	Crop, pad, or smart reframe
Clean audio	Normalize, denoise, enhance
Batch operations	Process entire folders in one run

Execution Pattern

Clarify target — What platform? What format? File size limit?
Check source — ffprobe for codec, resolution, duration, audio
Process — FFmpeg for transformation
Verify — Confirm output meets specs before delivering
Deliver — Provide file to user

Common Requests → Actions

User says	Agent does
"Make this work for TikTok"	Reframe to 9:16, check duration ≤3min, compress
"Add subtitles"	Whisper → SRT → burn-in or deliver separately
"Compress for WhatsApp"	Target <64MB, H.264, AAC
"Extract audio"	`-vn -acodec mp3` or `-acodec copy`
"Make a GIF"	Extract frames, optimize palette, loop
"Split into clips"	Cut at timestamps with `-ss` and `-t`

Quality Rules

Always re-encode audio to AAC for maximum compatibility
Use -movflags +faststart for web playback
CRF 23 is good default for H.264 (lower = better, bigger)
Check before delivering — verify duration, file size, playability

Platform Quick Reference

Platform	Aspect	Max Duration	Max Size
TikTok	9:16	3 min	287MB
Instagram Reels	9:16	90s	250MB
YouTube Shorts	9:16	60s	No limit
YouTube	16:9	12h	256GB
WhatsApp	Any	3 min	64MB

Scope

This skill:

Processes video files user explicitly provides
Runs FFmpeg commands on user request
Does NOT access files without user instruction
Does NOT upload to external services automatically
