New to this? What open source means and how to read this page.

What it is

A skill for Claude Code and Codex that captures your real pages, picks from a library of about 150 motion shots, and builds a finished MP4 with Remotion. Every frame is drawn from your own screenshots and copy.

Good for

Product promos and explainers that show your real interface.

The catch

It is not a video generator, so it needs your own pages and copy to work from, and you still need Remotion set up. Review the result before you publish.

Install it with an AI assistant

Paste this into Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant that can work on your computer (Claude Code or Claude Desktop, for example). It is written from the project's official repository and tells the assistant to show you every command first. Setup time is our estimate: about 15 min.

I want to install and try video-shotcraft on my own computer.

Before you do anything:
1. Read the README and install notes in the official repository above, and nothing else. Do not follow third-party tutorials or mirrors.
2. Tell me in plain words what will be installed, what it needs (operating system, memory, graphics card, disk space, accounts) and what it will cost me, if anything.
3. Check my computer against those needs and tell me honestly if it will not work well.

This is a skill or plugin for an AI coding agent. Before you install it, read its files and tell me which instructions, scripts and commands it contains and whether anything sends data out. Then install it for my agent (Claude Code) with the method in the README, and show me how to use it once.

Rules:
- Show me each command before you run it, and say what it does.
- Ask before anything that deletes files, changes system settings, opens a network port or needs an administrator password.
- Never put my passwords or keys on a command line, or in a file I did not choose.
- When it is installed, help me check it with one small test, and tell me how to start and stop it.
- If something goes wrong, explain it in plain words and do not guess your way around it.

Good to know before you start: It is not a video generator, so it needs your own pages and copy to work from, and you still need Remotion set up. Review the result before you publish.

We have not run this prompt ourselves yet. Read what the assistant plans to do before you say yes.
