A skill to automatically download and install the latest ButterCut version while preserving libraries. Use when user wants to check for updates or update their installation for new features.
Report a ButterCut bug to the people who build it. Use automatically when a ButterCut command fails in a way that looks like ButterCut's own fault, and when the user says "report this", "send a bug report", "tell the ButterCut team", or "this is broken".
Send a feature request or idea to the ButterCut team. Use when the user says "request a feature", "I wish ButterCut could…", "can you ask the team for…", "suggest an idea", or wishes out loud for something ButterCut doesn't do.
Build a cut from a library — scene, selects, roughcut, custom task, or an edit from a written script. Starts by asking what kind of cut the user wants, then works with them to determine what they want to create. Use when the user asks for a "roughcut",…
The ButterCut home menu — welcome the user back, then ask what they'd like to do (start a new cut, add footage to a library, a one-off task, or something else) and hand off to the right skill. Use as the front door when the user opens ButterCut, types…
The ButterCut home menu — welcome the user back, then ask what they'd like to do (start a new cut, add footage to a library, a one-off task, or something else) and hand off to the right skill. Use as the front door when the user opens ButterCut, types…
Create a new ButterCut library. Gather library info (name, footage location, language, transcript proofreading) and scaffold the library. Use when the user wants to start a **new** library. Libraries are containers of footage and footage analysis…
Help a user handle a one-off production related task that doesn't match perfectly to an existing skill. Examples, pull a clip's audio, extract a frame, transcribe a stray recording, draft notes, create a spreadsheet, convert a file from one type to another,…
Process the footage in a library — run analysis (transcripts, contact sheets, summaries) on a new library, resume processing on an existing one, or add and analyze new footage. Use when footage needs analyzing.
Internal sub-procedure (not a standalone entry point) — the shared footage-analysis pipeline that produces audio transcripts, contact sheets, and Sonnet-written summaries. Invoked end-to-end by the process-library and reprocess-with-contact-sheets skills;…
Builds a contact sheet from a video clip — evenly spaced frames laid out in a single grid image, each with its hh:mm:ss timestamp burned in. Use when the user asks for a "contact sheet", "grid", "film strip", or wants a one-image overview of part of a clip.
Reset a library's visual analysis (contact sheets, summaries, legacy visual_transcripts) and re-run the current analyze-video pipeline on it. Keeps audio transcripts, cuts, plans, and library metadata. Use when a library was processed under the older pipeline…
Transcribes video audio using WhisperX, preserving original timestamps. Creates JSON transcript with word-level timing. Use when you need to generate audio transcripts for videos.
Backs up user libraries and all their contents (external video excluded). This skill can also be useful when you need to restore a library.
Exports all dialogue from every clip in a library into a single text file. One clip per block — filename, then its spoken words. Use when the user asks for a "full transcript", "full script", or wants all the dialogue from a library in one place.
