Reel to Skill

Use this when the user provides a TikTok/Instagram Reel/X video/short-form video link and wants a skill from it.

Workflow

1. Download the video locally with scripts/download_transcribe.py.
2. Transcribe the audio.
3. Extract the repeatable procedure, decision rules, examples, and caveats.
4. Create a skill folder under skills//.
5. Keep SKILL.md concise and procedural.
6. Do not hardcode API keys, cookies, tokens, or user secrets into the skill.

Script

Run:

python3 skills/reel-to-skill/scripts/download_transcribe.py "<url>" --out /tmp/reel-skill

The script uses:

• yt-dlp for downloading
• ffmpeg for audio extraction
• OpenAI transcription if OPENAI_API_KEY is available

If transcription is unavailable, extract frames and ask the user for a transcript or use available audio tooling.
