bradautomates/claude-video Hits 11.1K Stars Giving Claude a /watch Command With Scene-Aware Frame Extraction

GitHub·medium signalXBlueskyLinkedInCopy link

This MIT Python plugin (11.1K stars, +434 today) lets you paste a video URL or local path with a question: it pulls native captions first, falls back to Whisper via Groq or OpenAI, extracts frames with ffmpeg, dedupes near-identical frames to save tokens, and hands Claude timestamped images aligned to the transcript. Four detail modes trade cost for fidelity — `transcript`, `efficient` (~50 frames), `balanced` (scene-change detection, 100 frames), and an uncapped `token-burner`. Installs via `/plugin marketplace add bradautomates/claude-video` or `npx skills add` for other agents.
