System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the manual friction of integrating a local libvmaf build with FFmpeg, applying any repository patches, and validating that the video quality filters still work end to end.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • FFmpeg Checkout Management: Clones or updates the target FFmpeg revision and keeps the workspace clean and reproducible.
  • Patch Application: Applies any maintained FFmpeg patches in a safe, ordered way before building.
  • Integration Verification: Configures FFmpeg against the local libvmaf artifacts, compiles it, installs it, and runs smoke tests for both the libvmaf and vmaf_pre filters.
  • Use Case: Use this Skill when you need to confirm that a fresh libvmaf change still builds correctly with FFmpeg and produces valid VMAF output in a test run.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to build FFmpeg against your current local libvmaf checkout, apply any available FFmpeg patches, and run the standard VMAF filter smoke tests.
