Open Video Index

Open the registered video index in a terminal (or file manager fallback) and list the existing projects.

Procedure

INDEX_FILE="${CLAUDE_USER_DATA:-${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/claude-plugins}/video-editing/index.json"
test -f "$INDEX_FILE" || { echo "No video index registered. Run setup-index first."; exit 1; }
PATH_=$(jq -r .path "$INDEX_FILE" 2>/dev/null || grep -oP '"path":\s*"\K[^"]+' "$INDEX_FILE")
test -d "$PATH_" || { echo "Index path missing: $PATH_"; exit 1; }

if command -v konsole >/dev/null; then
  konsole --workdir "$PATH_" &
elif command -v gnome-terminal >/dev/null; then
  gnome-terminal --working-directory="$PATH_" &
elif command -v xdg-open >/dev/null; then
  xdg-open "$PATH_" &
fi

echo "Index: $PATH_"
ls -la "$PATH_"

If the config is missing or stale, redirect the user to the setup-index skill.
