How to start

For builders. A longer technical setup: code, a server or Docker.

What's a skill?

A folder of instructions (a SKILL.md file, sometimes with small scripts) that an AI agent such as Claude Code or Codex reads when a task needs it. You install it once, then ask for things in plain words.

1Open the skill and follow the current project's instructions for your agent.
2Install the listed Python tools if needed.
3Try one public video and compare the transcript with the source.
