What problem does it solve?
Manually opening each clip's audio transcript to gather dialogue is tedious. This Skill consolidates every clip's spoken words from a ButterCut library into one readable text file, giving editors a complete script of their footage in a single place.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Consolidated Dialogue Export: Runs a Ruby script that reads every clip's audio transcript in a library and writes one block per clip (filename followed by its spoken words) into full_transcript.txt.
- Graceful Handling of Missing Dialogue: Clips without audio transcripts are skipped, and clips with transcripts but no spoken words are marked [no dialogue].
- Use Case: A documentary editor wants to review everything said across hours of interview footage. Running this Skill produces a single full_transcript.txt in the library root that can be searched, shared, or used to plan a rough cut.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to generate a full transcript of the dialogue from a named ButterCut library, then open the resulting full_transcript.txt file it links to.
