  • 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.

  • 4 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by remotion-dev on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

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

1

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.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. 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.
2

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/remotion-dev/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/remotion-create .claude/skills/remotion-create
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Remotion Create 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 Remotion Create 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 Remotion Create 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.

These are instructions for making a new Remotion project and composition.
If this is not the next task, see Remotion Best Practices

Scaffold a project

If a project already exists, skip this. Ensure Node.js and Git is installed, and the current folder is appropriate for starting a new project.

Inspect the current folder, including hidden files, before choosing where to scaffold.

Empty folder

If it is empty, or contains only disposable operating-system metadata such as .DS_Store, create the project directly in the current folder. Remove only those disposable metadata files first, since create-video rejects non-empty folders. Do not treat all hidden files as disposable: files such as .env and directories such as .git are meaningful contents.

Scaffold in existing folder:

bash
npx create-video@latest --yes --blank --no-tailwind .
npm i

Non-empty folder

If the current folder contains meaningful contents and no project already exists, scaffold into a new subfolder. Replace my-video with a suitable project name.

bash
npx create-video@latest --yes --blank --no-tailwind my-video
cd my-video
npm i

Designing a video

Keep the scaffold and add React Markup. Follow Remotion React Markup Best Practices and Video Layout Rules for video-first layout and text sizing guidance.

Is this a multi-scene video?

If this is a video with multiple subsequence videos, follow guidance at Multi-scene videos.

Interactivity Best Practices

By structuring the React Markup following Remotion Interactivity Best Practices, you allow the user to make edits in the Studio which write back to code.

TailwindCSS

If Tailwind is requested, see tailwind.md for using TailwindCSS in Remotion.

Open the preview

Start the preview server after building the composition:

bash
npx remotion studio --no-open

This will start a long-running process and print the server URL for the preview.
If the server is already started, it will print the URL. If an in-harness browser is available, open it there. You can visit a specific composition by navigating to /[composition-id], for example http://localhost:3000/MapAnimation.

Render the video

Only render if the user explicitly asks for it.

npx remotion render

For more options, see Rendering.

Follow-up

The video creation process has finished. For follow-up prompts, use Remotion Best Practices

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Remotion Create AI skill do?

Why use Remotion Create on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Remotion Create 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 Remotion Create in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/remotion-dev/skills/tree/main/skills/remotion-create. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Remotion Create?

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 Remotion Create?

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

Is the Remotion Create AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by remotion-dev. Check the repository for licensing terms. 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.
