chatcut

Import local or downloaded media, or relink missing media to an existing ChatCut asset, through the hosted Claude plugin. Use the editor loopback bridge when the editor and files are on the same machine; use the upload helper for imports otherwise. Desktop MCP sessions use their own built-in import tools.

Use when Codex uses the ChatCut plugin (chatcut MCP server) to add, create, hand-author, patch, or place Motion Graphic JSX assets. Covers reference browsing, direct inline JSX authoring, editable properties, asset binding, timeline placement, and composed verification.

Create and manage script- or audio-driven AI avatar videos from an official or saved presenter, an imported portrait, or a representative still prepared from video. Use for 数字人、数字分身、虚拟人、照片开口说话、人像口播、改稿不重拍, AI avatar, AI avatar video, avatar video, talking avatar, talking photo, photo avatar, video avatar, AI presenter, virtual presenter, virtual spokesperson, digital human, or a person's digital twin, including choosing or creating the avatar and deciding its voice, script, aspect ratio, and output quality. Do not use for a static profile-picture avatar, game or 3D character creation, an industrial digital twin, ordinary B-roll, generic image-to-video, video translation, talking-head editing, lip-sync dubbing alone, or TTS-only requests.

Hosted ChatCut plugin sessions only (the `chatcut` MCP server). If the conversation is driving ChatCut Desktop (a `chatcut_desktop*` MCP server), load this skill only when the user explicitly chooses the plugin/web surface — desktop sessions otherwise ship their own instructions and tools. Export or deliver a ChatCut project through the hosted connector, including video, audio, subtitles, XML, and render-status checks.

AI image generation and reference-image editing via GPT Image 2.5 Flare/Sunburst, GPT Image 2, and Nano Banana. Use when the user wants to generate or create an image / picture / still through the backend image-generation jobs.

Diagnose ChatCut plugin tool failures, rejected mutations, unexpected response shapes, and blocked import, generation, or render operations.

Synchronize footage from a multi-camera / multi-recorder shoot — several cameras plus separate audio recorders covering one session, imported as loose clips — and optionally turn all or part of it into speaker-follow footage for a larger edit. Use when a user drops in multiple clips from the same recording and wants them aligned, asks for multicam / 多机位 / multi-angle sync, wants a "cut to whoever is talking" edit, or refers to camera A/B, angles, or separate lav or field recordings that need to line up with picture.

Shared ChatCut entry point for newly generated music, soundtrack, theme music, 配乐, background music, an intro theme, a music bed, BGM, or vocal songs. If vocals are unspecified, ask whether the user wants a vocal song or instrumental music before choosing a generator. Use `submit_music` for either branch, with `generationType` selecting instrumental or song mode.

Answer current ChatCut product questions using the latest official Docs, Releases, and Changelog. Use for how ChatCut works; UI layout, buttons, and feature instructions; troubleshooting; feature or fix availability on Web, Desktop, or Agent Plugin and minimum version requirements; credits including costs, balance, usage history, validity, or recent charges; plans, subscriptions, renewals, ChatCut Pro, pricing, card or Alipay (支付宝) payments, and billing; Desktop downloads; Agent Plugin installation or updates for Codex and Claude Code; and manual GUI guidance when an action cannot be completed directly. NOT for live project, asset, timeline, or item state; use the matching read tool instead.

AI shader generator for WebGL video effects, transitions, masks, and color grading (LUT / 调色 / 电影感 / film look). Use when the user wants a video effect (滤镜 / 特效), a transition (转场 / crossfade / wipe / cube / 3d), a mask (蒙版 / 遮罩 / reveal), a zoom / push-in (推近 / 推镜头), or a color grade — try the built-in effects (zoom, builtin LUTs) before generating a new shader.

Guide for editing speech-led videos where spoken delivery or conversation drives the cut — single-speaker talking-head / 口播, two- or multi-speaker interview / 访谈, video podcast, lecture, tutorial, course, and similar formats. Load before analyzing, planning, or performing non-trivial edits of those formats, including speech cleanup (剪口播 / 口播剪辑 / 去口癖 / clean up fillers / smooth speech), pause or repeated-take removal, motion graphics layered onto the footage (口播加 MG / 加动画), B-roll (加 B-roll / add B-roll), music, or captions. For motion graphics specifically, use this together with the active Motion Graphics skill/workflow available in the current ChatCut environment — this skill adds speech-specific guidance (rhythm-aware timing, frame-aware placement, subject/caption protection, placement verification).

Hosted ChatCut plugin sessions only (the `chatcut` MCP server). If the conversation is driving ChatCut Desktop (a `chatcut_desktop*` MCP server), load this skill only when the user explicitly chooses the plugin/web surface — desktop sessions otherwise ship their own instructions and tools. Use for ChatCut transcription, transcript readiness, captions, subtitles, transcript repair, filler removal, and speech-led editing setup.

Hosted ChatCut plugin sessions only (the `chatcut` MCP server). If the conversation is driving ChatCut Desktop (a `chatcut_desktop*` MCP server), load this skill only when the user explicitly chooses the plugin/web surface — desktop sessions otherwise ship their own instructions and tools. Verify that ChatCut plugin edits are reflected in project structure and visible timeline output before reporting success.

AI video generation via Seedance, Kling, Gemini Omni, MiniMax H3, and MiniMax H3 Max. Use when the user wants to generate a video clip — text-to-video, image-to-video, first/last-frame transitions, reference-guided generation — or wants to modify / edit / extend an existing generated clip.

Translate, dub, and localize speech in an existing video while optionally preserving speaker voices, generating translated captions, or synchronizing the speaker's lip movements. Use when the user asks for 视频译制、多语言配音、 把视频里的中文变成英文、让视频里的人说另一种语言、保留原音色、翻译声音、 口型同步、translated video, video dubbing, voice translation, or lip-synced localization, as well as traducción de video, doblaje de video, traducir un video, or sincronización labial. This Skill MUST be loaded before composing treatment choices for an ambiguous video-translation request in any language, including a turn that only asks the user to choose a treatment. Do not use when the user only wants subtitles translated, wants an SRT/VTT file, wants text or a script translated before generating a new avatar video, or wants ordinary TTS with a newly selected voice.

Text-to-Speech (TTS), voice cloning, voiceover, narration placement/sync, and custom sound effects (SFX) generator. Use when the user wants generated speech from text, wants to clone a consented voice from uploaded reference audio, wants to correct a misspoken word or short phrase in recorded speech, wants to add/replace/align narration or voiceover for an existing video/timeline, wants to keep existing voiceover synced after visual retiming edits, needs voice audition/selection, or explicitly wants a newly generated/custom sound effect that is not available in the Sound Effects library.
