What is it?
This repository packages Remotion's guidance as Agent Skills, a format for teaching AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Kimi Code and Cursor how to work within a Remotion project. Each skill targets a specific job, such as creating a new project or composition, writing animation and layout markup, previewing in Studio, or rendering to video or still images.
The skills cover a range of topics beyond core rendering, including map animations with Mapbox, MapLibre, MapTiler and CesiumJS, captions and subtitles, browser-based media metadata with Mediabunny, and making elements editable in Studio. A documentation skill lets agents search Remotion docs and fetch pages as Markdown before writing code.
Install the skills with npx skills add remotion-dev/skills, or choose to add them when creating a project with bun create video.
