You say

“Read the installed SKILL.md and defaults.json. Use Story Video Director for my story. Produce its declared deliverables, preserve my sources and identify any unavailable service before calling it.”

After installing, say something like this to your agent with your own topic and assets. It asks only for what is missing.

FAQ

Do I need an account?

No. Copy the install prompt into your agent, or download the free ZIP.

What does it cost to run?

The Skill is free. It needs the tools listed under “You will need”. Any voice, model or media service you choose bills you directly; FeedSkills does not include provider credits.

Can I use the videos commercially?

Videos you make are yours to use, including commercially. The Skill package is licensed as: MIT · bundled fonts SIL OFL · original icon notices included. Fonts, music, footage and services you add keep their own terms.

Details

Story Video Director

Choose a stickman story style, plan timed scenes and prompts, or compose supplied artwork and narration with the local B1 renderer. This independent Agent Skill shares a maintained stickman base and includes its own resources. Looks: A1–A6 direction and B1 local composition.

What you can make

A storyboard, timed actions and standalone per-clip prompts. Character, prop and voice continuity; local revisions. A proposal and prompt pack are planning outputs; generating new clips requires your chosen service, access and separate usage charges.

Watch and compare

Explore all 7 stickman styles, their actual deliverables and the new B1 demonstration. A1/A2 looks are parameters within a style, not duplicate Skills. Upstream recordings remain external references, not FeedSkills-generated demonstrations.

Reuse and revise

Read defaults.json for this style and the installed guide for the workflow. Preserve the character, props and chosen voice; revise only the requested scene. The shared base keeps style definitions separate from local composition and service boundaries. Each installed Skill is self-contained.

Requirements and provenance

An Agent and your story brief; identify fictional stories and source factual claims. No paid service required for planning; downstream media generation uses your chosen service and separate charges. Adapted from kaomei’s MIT Stickman Video Director at 09fbcb4; font/icon notices are included. A7, B2 and the advertised ecosystem roadmap are not implemented features. Technical and Agent checks do not constitute your personal A/V approval.
