+description: AI-assisted video editing workflows for cutting, structuring, and augmenting real footage. Covers the full pipeline from raw capture through FFmpeg, Remotion, ElevenLabs, fal.ai, and final polish in Descript or CapCut. Use when the user wants to edit video, cut footage, create vlogs, or build video content.

+
+# Video Editing
+
+AI-assisted editing for real footage. Not generation from prompts. Editing existing video fast.
+
+## When to Activate
+
+- User wants to edit, cut, or structure video footage
+- Turning long recordings into short-form content
+- Building vlogs, tutorials, or demo videos from raw capture
+- Adding overlays, subtitles, music, or voiceover to existing video
+- Reframing video for different platforms (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram)
+- User says "edit video", "cut this footage", "make a vlog", or "video workflow"
+
+## Core Thesis
+
+AI video editing is useful when you stop asking it to create the whole video and start using it to compress, structure, and augment real footage. The value is not generation. The value is compression.
+
+## The Pipeline
+
+```
+Screen Studio / raw footage
+  → Claude / Codex
+  → FFmpeg
+  → Remotion
+  → ElevenLabs / fal.ai
+  → Descript or CapCut
+```
+
+Each layer has a specific job. Do not skip layers. Do not try to make one tool do everything.
+
+## Layer 1: Capture (Screen Studio / Raw Footage)
+
+Collect the source material:
+- **Screen Studio**: polished screen recordings for app demos, coding sessions, browser workflows
+- **Raw camera footage**: vlog footage, interviews, event recordings
+- **Desktop capture via VideoDB**: session recording with real-time context (see `videodb` skill)
+
+Output: raw files ready for organization.
+
+## Layer 2: Organization (Claude / Codex)
+
+Use Claude Code or Codex to:
+- **Transcribe and label**: generate transcript, identify topics and themes
+- **Plan structure**: decide what stays, what gets cut, what order works
+- **Identify dead sections**: find pauses, tangents, repeated takes
+- **Generate edit decision list**: timestamps for cuts, segments to keep
+- **Scaffold FFmpeg and Remotion code**: generate the commands and compositions
+
+```
+Example prompt:
+"Here's the transcript of a 4-hour recording. Identify the 8 strongest segments
+for a 24-minute vlog. Give me FFmpeg cut commands for each segment."
+```
+
+This layer is about structure, not final creative taste.
+
+## Layer 3: Deterministic Cuts (FFmpeg)
+
+FFmpeg handles the boring but critical work: splitting, trimming, concatenating, and preprocessing.
+
+### Extract segment by timestamp
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -ss 00:12:30 -to 00:15:45 -c copy segment_01.mp4
+```
+
+### Batch cut from edit decision list
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# cuts.txt: start,end,label
+while IFS=, read -r start end label; do
+  ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -ss "$start" -to "$end" -c copy "segments/${label}.mp4"
+done < cuts.txt
+```
+
+### Concatenate segments
+
+```bash
+# Create file list
+for f in segments/*.mp4; do echo "file '$f'"; done > concat.txt
+ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i concat.txt -c copy assembled.mp4
+```
+
+### Create proxy for faster editing
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -vf "scale=960:-2" -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 28 proxy.mp4
+```
+
+### Extract audio for transcription
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -vn -acodec pcm_s16le -ar 16000 audio.wav
+```
+
+### Normalize audio levels
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i segment.mp4 -af loudnorm=I=-16:TP=-1.5:LRA=11 -c:v copy normalized.mp4
+```
+
+## Layer 4: Programmable Composition (Remotion)
+
+Remotion turns editing problems into composable code. Use it for things that traditional editors make painful:
+
+### When to use Remotion
+
+- Overlays: text, images, branding, lower thirds
+- Data visualizations: charts, stats, animated numbers
+- Motion graphics: transitions, explainer animations
+- Composable scenes: reusable templates across videos
+- Product demos: annotated screenshots, UI highlights
+
+### Basic Remotion composition
+
+```tsx
+import { AbsoluteFill, Sequence, Video, useCurrentFrame } from "remotion";
+
+export const VlogComposition: React.FC = () => {
+  const frame = useCurrentFrame();
+
+  return (
+    <AbsoluteFill>
+      {/* Main footage */}
+      <Sequence from={0} durationInFrames={300}>
+        <Video src="/segments/intro.mp4" />
+      </Sequence>
+
+      {/* Title overlay */}
+      <Sequence from={30} durationInFrames={90}>
+        <AbsoluteFill style={{
+          justifyContent: "center",
+          alignItems: "center",
+        }}>
+          <h1 style={{
+            fontSize: 72,
+            color: "white",
+            textShadow: "2px 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.8)",
+          }}>
+            The AI Editing Stack
+          </h1>
+        </AbsoluteFill>
+      </Sequence>
+
+      {/* Next segment */}
+      <Sequence from={300} durationInFrames={450}>
+        <Video src="/segments/demo.mp4" />
+      </Sequence>
+    </AbsoluteFill>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+### Render output
+
+```bash
+npx remotion render src/index.ts VlogComposition output.mp4
+```
+
+See the [Remotion docs](https://www.remotion.dev/docs) for detailed patterns and API reference.
+
+## Layer 5: Generated Assets (ElevenLabs / fal.ai)
+
+Generate only what you need. Do not generate the whole video.
+
+### Voiceover with ElevenLabs
+
+```python
+import os
+import requests
+
+resp = requests.post(
+    f"https://api.elevenlabs.io/v1/text-to-speech/{voice_id}",
+    headers={
+        "xi-api-key": os.environ["ELEVENLABS_API_KEY"],
+        "Content-Type": "application/json"
+    },
+    json={
+        "text": "Your narration text here",
+        "model_id": "eleven_turbo_v2_5",
+        "voice_settings": {"stability": 0.5, "similarity_boost": 0.75}
+    }
+)
+with open("voiceover.mp3", "wb") as f:
+    f.write(resp.content)
+```
+
+### Music and SFX with fal.ai
+
+Use the `fal-ai-media` skill for:
+- Background music generation
+- Sound effects (ThinkSound model for video-to-audio)
+- Transition sounds
+
+### Generated visuals with fal.ai
+
+Use for insert shots, thumbnails, or b-roll that doesn't exist:
+```
+generate(model_name: "fal-ai/nano-banana-pro", input: {
+  "prompt": "professional thumbnail for tech vlog, dark background, code on screen",
+  "image_size": "landscape_16_9"
+})
+```
+
+### VideoDB generative audio
+
+If VideoDB is configured:
+```python
+voiceover = coll.generate_voice(text="Narration here", voice="alloy")
+music = coll.generate_music(prompt="lo-fi background for coding vlog", duration=120)
+sfx = coll.generate_sound_effect(prompt="subtle whoosh transition")
+```
+
+## Layer 6: Final Polish (Descript / CapCut)
+
+The last layer is human. Use a traditional editor for:
+- **Pacing**: adjust cuts that feel too fast or slow
+- **Captions**: auto-generated, then manually cleaned
+- **Color grading**: basic correction and mood
+- **Final audio mix**: balance voice, music, and SFX levels
+- **Export**: platform-specific formats and quality settings
+
+This is where taste lives. AI clears the repetitive work. You make the final calls.
+
+## Social Media Reframing
+
+Different platforms need different aspect ratios:
+
+| Platform | Aspect Ratio | Resolution |
+|----------|-------------|------------|
+| YouTube | 16:9 | 1920x1080 |
+| TikTok / Reels | 9:16 | 1080x1920 |
+| Instagram Feed | 1:1 | 1080x1080 |
+| X / Twitter | 16:9 or 1:1 | 1280x720 or 720x720 |
+
+### Reframe with FFmpeg
+
+```bash
+# 16:9 to 9:16 (center crop)
+ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "crop=ih*9/16:ih,scale=1080:1920" vertical.mp4
+
+# 16:9 to 1:1 (center crop)
+ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "crop=ih:ih,scale=1080:1080" square.mp4
+```
+
+### Reframe with VideoDB
+
+```python
+# Smart reframe (AI-guided subject tracking)
+reframed = video.reframe(start=0, end=60, target="vertical", mode=ReframeMode.smart)
+```
+
+## Scene Detection and Auto-Cut
+
+### FFmpeg scene detection
+
+```bash
+# Detect scene changes (threshold 0.3 = moderate sensitivity)
+ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "select='gt(scene,0.3)',showinfo" -vsync vfr -f null - 2>&1 | grep showinfo
+```
+
+### Silence detection for auto-cut
+
+```bash
+# Find silent segments (useful for cutting dead air)
+ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -af silencedetect=noise=-30dB:d=2 -f null - 2>&1 | grep silence
+```
+
+### Highlight extraction
+
+Use Claude to analyze transcript + scene timestamps:
+```
+"Given this transcript with timestamps and these scene change points,
+identify the 5 most engaging 30-second clips for social media."
+```
+
+## What Each Tool Does Best
+
+| Tool | Strength | Weakness |
+|------|----------|----------|
+| Claude / Codex | Organization, planning, code generation | Not the creative taste layer |
+| FFmpeg | Deterministic cuts, batch processing, format conversion | No visual editing UI |
+| Remotion | Programmable overlays, composable scenes, reusable templates | Learning curve for non-devs |
+| Screen Studio | Polished screen recordings immediately | Only screen capture |
+| ElevenLabs | Voice, narration, music, SFX | Not the center of the workflow |
+| Descript / CapCut | Final pacing, captions, polish | Manual, not automatable |
+
+## Key Principles
+
+1. **Edit, don't generate.** This workflow is for cutting real footage, not creating from prompts.
+2. **Structure before style.** Get the story right in Layer 2 before touching anything visual.
+3. **FFmpeg is the backbone.** Boring but critical. Where long footage becomes manageable.
+4. **Remotion for repeatability.** If you'll do it more than once, make it a Remotion component.
+5. **Generate selectively.** Only use AI generation for assets that don't exist, not for everything.
+6. **Taste is the last layer.** AI clears repetitive work. You make the final creative calls.

+description: X/Twitter API integration for posting tweets, threads, reading timelines, search, and analytics. Covers OAuth auth patterns, rate limits, and platform-native content posting. Use when the user wants to interact with X programmatically.
+---
+
+# X API
+
+Programmatic interaction with X (Twitter) for posting, reading, searching, and analytics.
+
+## When to Activate
+
+- User wants to post tweets or threads programmatically
+- Reading timeline, mentions, or user data from X
+- Searching X for content, trends, or conversations
+- Building X integrations or bots
+- Analytics and engagement tracking
+- User says "post to X", "tweet", "X API", or "Twitter API"
+
+## Authentication
+
+### OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token (App-Only)
+
+Best for: read-heavy operations, search, public data.
+
+```bash
+# Environment setup
+export X_BEARER_TOKEN="your-bearer-token"
+```
+
+```python
+import os
+import requests
+
+bearer = os.environ["X_BEARER_TOKEN"]
+headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {bearer}"}
+
+# Search recent tweets
+resp = requests.get(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/tweets/search/recent",
+    headers=headers,
+    params={"query": "claude code", "max_results": 10}
+)
+tweets = resp.json()
+```
+
+### OAuth 1.0a (User Context)
+
+Required for: posting tweets, managing account, DMs, and any write flow.
+
+```bash
+# Environment setup — source before use
+export X_CONSUMER_KEY="your-consumer-key"
+export X_CONSUMER_SECRET="your-consumer-secret"
+export X_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-access-token"
+export X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET="your-access-token-secret"
+```
+
+Legacy aliases such as `X_API_KEY`, `X_API_SECRET`, and `X_ACCESS_SECRET` may exist in older setups. Prefer the `X_CONSUMER_*` and `X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET` names when documenting or wiring new flows.
+
+```python
+import os
+from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1Session
+
+oauth = OAuth1Session(
+    os.environ["X_CONSUMER_KEY"],
+    client_secret=os.environ["X_CONSUMER_SECRET"],
+    resource_owner_key=os.environ["X_ACCESS_TOKEN"],
+    resource_owner_secret=os.environ["X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET"],
+)
+```
+
+## Core Operations
+
+### Post a Tweet
+
+```python
+resp = oauth.post(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/tweets",
+    json={"text": "Hello from Claude Code"}
+)
+resp.raise_for_status()
+tweet_id = resp.json()["data"]["id"]
+```
+
+### Post a Thread
+
+```python
+def post_thread(oauth, tweets: list[str]) -> list[str]:
+    ids = []
+    reply_to = None
+    for text in tweets:
+        payload = {"text": text}
+        if reply_to:
+            payload["reply"] = {"in_reply_to_tweet_id": reply_to}
+        resp = oauth.post("https://api.x.com/2/tweets", json=payload)
+        tweet_id = resp.json()["data"]["id"]
+        ids.append(tweet_id)
+        reply_to = tweet_id
+    return ids
+```
+
+### Read User Timeline
+
+```python
+resp = requests.get(
+    f"https://api.x.com/2/users/{user_id}/tweets",
+    headers=headers,
+    params={
+        "max_results": 10,
+        "tweet.fields": "created_at,public_metrics",
+    }
+)
+```
+
+### Search Tweets
+
+```python
+resp = requests.get(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/tweets/search/recent",
+    headers=headers,

+        "max_results": 10,
+        "tweet.fields": "public_metrics,created_at",
+    }
+)
+```
+
+### Pull Recent Original Posts for Voice Modeling
+
+```python
+resp = requests.get(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/tweets/search/recent",
+    headers=headers,
+    params={
+        "query": "from:affaanmustafa -is:retweet -is:reply",
+        "max_results": 25,
+        "tweet.fields": "created_at,public_metrics",
+    }
+)
+voice_samples = resp.json()
+```
+
+### Get User by Username
+
+```python
+resp = requests.get(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/users/by/username/affaanmustafa",
+    headers=headers,
+    params={"user.fields": "public_metrics,description,created_at"}
+)
+```
+
+### Upload Media and Post
+
+```python
+# Media upload uses v1.1 endpoint
+
+# Step 1: Upload media
+media_resp = oauth.post(
+    "https://upload.twitter.com/1.1/media/upload.json",
+    files={"media": open("image.png", "rb")}
+)
+media_id = media_resp.json()["media_id_string"]
+
+# Step 2: Post with media
+resp = oauth.post(
+    "https://api.x.com/2/tweets",
+    json={"text": "Check this out", "media": {"media_ids": [media_id]}}
+)
+```
+
+## Rate Limits
+
+X API rate limits vary by endpoint, auth method, and account tier, and they change over time. Always:
+- Check the current X developer docs before hardcoding assumptions
+- Read `x-rate-limit-remaining` and `x-rate-limit-reset` headers at runtime
+- Back off automatically instead of relying on static tables in code
+
+```python
+import time
+
+remaining = int(resp.headers.get("x-rate-limit-remaining", 0))
+if remaining < 5:
+    reset = int(resp.headers.get("x-rate-limit-reset", 0))
+    wait = max(0, reset - int(time.time()))
+    print(f"Rate limit approaching. Resets in {wait}s")
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+```python
+resp = oauth.post("https://api.x.com/2/tweets", json={"text": content})
+if resp.status_code == 201:
+    return resp.json()["data"]["id"]
+elif resp.status_code == 429:
+    reset = int(resp.headers["x-rate-limit-reset"])
+    raise Exception(f"Rate limited. Resets at {reset}")
+elif resp.status_code == 403:
+    raise Exception(f"Forbidden: {resp.json().get('detail', 'check permissions')}")
+else:
+    raise Exception(f"X API error {resp.status_code}: {resp.text}")
+```
+
+## Security
+
+- **Never hardcode tokens.** Use environment variables or `.env` files.
+- **Never commit `.env` files.** Add to `.gitignore`.
+- **Rotate tokens** if exposed. Regenerate at developer.x.com.
+- **Use read-only tokens** when write access is not needed.
+- **Store OAuth secrets securely** — not in source code or logs.
+
+## Integration with Content Engine
+
+Use `brand-voice` plus `content-engine` to generate platform-native content, then post via X API:
+1. Pull recent original posts when voice matching matters
+2. Build or reuse a `VOICE PROFILE`
+3. Generate content with `content-engine` in X-native format
+4. Validate length and thread structure
+5. Return the draft for approval unless the user explicitly asked to post now
+6. Post via X API only after approval
+7. Track engagement via public_metrics
