Video Shotcraft: AI video skill for Claude Code & Codex that directs cinematic product promos in Remotion
A skill package for Claude Code and Codex that turns a product brief into a finished promo video: the agent captures real product pages, picks shots from 124 tuned motion-recipe cards, storyboards the film, animates it in Remotion, cuts to the beat, and delivers an editable MP4.
Why it matters
No generative video model involved: every frame is drawn by code from the product's own screenshots and copy, so the result stays sharp, on-brand, and fully editable after delivery.
What you could build with it
A small marketing team could hand its coding agent a product URL and a one-line brief and get back a finished, editable promo video for a launch page, without hiring a video editor or learning a timeline tool.
Does it hold up?
Usable today as a Claude Code/Codex skill with a live gallery of 150 shots and a production-ready template, plus a CapCut-style Motion Workbench for edits; final brand fit still needs a human eye, since the agent assembles the film from recipes rather than shooting footage.
