ffmpeg-skill
Level ALocalLocal video editor for coding agents: 42 FFmpeg tools with a machine-readable contract and an MCP server, for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. Cut, captions, reframe, loudness, platform exports. No cloud, no API keys.
Overview
ffmpeg-skill gives coding agents a local video editor: 42 FFmpeg tools plus an MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and other clients. It handles cutting, joining, silence removal, captions and karaoke, reframing, loudness normalization, HDR-to-SDR, multicam sync and platform exports, then verifies its own output. Everything runs locally with no cloud and no API keys.
