What problem does it solve?

Turning long-form videos into social-ready clips is time-consuming because it requires transcription, finding highlight moments, reframing for vertical platforms, and generating engaging captions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-detect clip-worthy moments: Uses Whisper transcription to propose 3–5 candidate clips based on punchlines, reversals, awkward pauses, and audio peaks.
  • Reframe 16:9 to 9:16 with face-tracking panning: Creates vertical crops using motion-energy speaker region analysis (no ML face models) and generates ffmpeg crop/pan expressions.
  • Burn opus-style word-level captions: Produces karaoke/opus-like ASS subtitles with word-level highlighting and burns them into the final clip.
  • Hardware-accelerated rendering (macOS VideoToolbox): Uses platform-friendly decoding/encoding flags for faster turnaround.

Quick Start

Clone the clipify repo into your Claude Code skills directory and install ffmpeg plus the required Python packages, then restart Claude Code so you can run the /clipify command.
