| description | Plan no-caption slideshow-style MP4s and frame reels from demo-machine screenshots, storyboard frames, selected video spans, or manual QA evidence. Use when Codex needs a polished still-frame walkthrough, hero reel, or reviewable visual summary without recapturing the browser flow. |
Demo Slideshow Edit
Overview
Use this skill when the best output is a curated still-frame or segment-based reel rather than a full narrated playback. The slideshow must remain source-backed and evidence-linked.
Inputs
- storyboard frames or screenshots
- selected spans from
video.shots.json, segment.evidence.json, or events.json
- source
.demo.yaml or QA flow/report
- target duration, aspect ratio, and audience
Workflow
- Select frames or spans that show state changes clearly.
- Reject frames that expose secrets, private data, or unreadable UI.
- Define the sequence with durations, crop/zoom notes, and transition notes.
- Prefer simple transitions and stable framing over decorative effects.
- Record the source path, evidence links, and output path in the artifact manifest when available.
- Produce a render plan or command. Do not claim the MP4 is approved until evidence and safety checks pass.
Output
Return:
- source run directory
- ordered frame/span list
- duration and aspect ratio
- output media path
- review surface path, if generated
- checks needed before handoff
Guardrails
- Do not fabricate app states that were not captured.
- Do not crop away failures, warnings, or key context.
- Do not use external stock or music unless the user explicitly asks and licensing is recorded.
- Keep generated slideshow media out of git unless explicitly promoted.
