editing

Entry point for every video job - routes to studio-setup, insta-audit, studio-script, outliers, short-editing, broll, steal, clips, short-translate, codex-images, vox or publish, and continues the project already in progress. Use when the user says /editing, edit, montage, take, short, reel, video, script, audit, publish, or is not sure which video skill to use.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by Melvynx on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Editing AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/Melvynx/video-agent-skills/tree/main/skills/editing
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Melvynx/video-agent-skills.git /tmp/video-agent-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/video-agent-skills/skills/editing .claude/skills/editing

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Editing in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Editing on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Editing is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Editing

Route the request to the one skill that owns it, then do the work with that skill. Never edit with your own method: every rule lives in the target skill.

Continue before you start. If this conversation already works on a video (a video-agent/edits/<slug>/ folder, a take just edited, a week of scripts just written), the request is the next step of that project with the skill already in use: apply the change, rerun the step, keep its files, never start it over.
Otherwise read the request and pick the skill:
- No video-agent/ folder yet, first time, tools, voice, permissions, accounts, keys: studio-setup. An edit asked before any setup: run studio-setup first (or at least its tools step).
- Their Instagram stats, "what works on my account", an audit of an account or of their competitors: insta-audit.
- Scripts, ideas for the week, hooks, rewrite, humanize a text, "sounds like AI", what goes viral in their niche, swipe file: studio-script (viral for the niche research).
- Instagram reels that blew up for their competitors or for one account, turned into 5 remake scripts ("outliers", "what works for my competitors", "videos to remake", "ideas from @someone"): outliers.
- A take or a local file, "my last take", a video URL to edit, an existing slug, short, reel, a full YouTube video: short-editing. "In the style of " = short-editing ... style <name>.
- Their B-roll ("add these clips", "my B-roll", "put my B-roll on this short", find a shot, drop a clip): broll (setup, add, use, search, reject).
- Their own look (brand color, paper, font, captions, sound, Instagram CTA, tool logos, logo, end card, "change my style"): studio-setup style.
- Copy another creator's editing style ("steal", "edit like @x", a reel given as the model for a look rather than as the take to edit): steal.
- One long video (a podcast, a live, a long YouTube video) into several shorts: clips.
- A version of a take in another language: short-translate.
- Thumbnails, covers, stills, any image: codex-images.
- A photo into a paper-collage animation (Vox style, "anime cette photo"), or a change to one already made: vox.
- Publish or schedule a finished video ("post it", "publier", "mets-le en ligne"): publish.
- Still ambiguous: ask one question only.
Load the target: invoke it with the Skill tool, else read <skills folder>/<skill>/SKILL.md (the skills installed next to this one) and follow it exactly as if the user had typed /<skill> <args>. Pass their words through as that skill's arguments.

Say in one line which skill you picked, then hand over to it. Its own end state is yours.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Editing AI skill do?

Why use Editing on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Editing is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Editing in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Melvynx/video-agent-skills/tree/main/skills/editing. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Editing?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Editing?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Editing with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Editing AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Melvynx under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
