SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a long podcast, webinar, or recording into a batch of posting-ready short clips normally requires manual scrubbing, cropping, captioning, and copywriting for every platform. This Skill automates that entire pipeline through the OpenClip MCP server, from source submission to a ranked set of captioned vertical clips with post copy. ## Core Features & Use Cases - End-to-end batch workflow: Submit one long video, poll the clipping pipeline, review moments ranked by virality score, and render only the approved picks with captions. - Platform-specific output: Produces 9:16 vertical clips by default, with free cropping to 1:1, 4:5, or 16:9 for Instagram feed, X, and LinkedIn. - Repeatable branding: Save a processing agent with fixed caption presets, composition, and watermark so every future batch looks identical. - Use Case: A podcaster asks for "10 TikToks from this episode" and receives ten captioned vertical clips, each with a title, hook, social copy, duration, and virality score, ready to post. ## Quick Start Ask your agent to turn this podcast episode into ten captioned TikTok clips using OpenClip and approve the shortlist before rendering.

Frequently Asked Questions about openclip-repurpose

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a long video into short clips for TikTok?▼

Submit the video URL with submit_video, poll get_video_status until completed, then review moments from list_clips ranked by virality score. Approve the ones you want and render each with render_clip using a caption preset to get posting-ready vertical clips.

How to repurpose a podcast into social media content?▼

Submit the podcast video, let the pipeline detect highlight moments, and take the top clips by virality score. Each rendered clip includes a title, hook, social copy, duration, and suggested platforms, so a single episode becomes a week of posts.

Does OpenClip repurposing require a paid subscription?▼

The clipping pipeline that finds and ranks moments is paid and needs an active subscription plus credits. Reframing, cropping, and trimming rendered clips with edit_video are free with just an account. Check credits_remaining with get_account before starting.

Why does my video job fail immediately after submitting?▼

A near-instant failed status means there is no active subscription, and pending_credits means the account is out of credits. These are terminal states, so report the issue to the user and stop rather than continuing to poll.

Can I get clips in square or landscape format instead of vertical?▼

Yes. The pipeline outputs 9:16 vertical by default, but you can run the free edit_video crop operation on any rendered clip to produce 1:1, 4:5, or 16:9 versions for Instagram feed, X, or LinkedIn.

How do I keep the same captions and branding across every batch?▼

Save a processing agent with create_agent using your caption preset, composition, and watermark settings, then pass that agent id to submit_video. Every future batch will use identical styling without re-specifying the options.
