What it is

video-editor-skills is a set of Claude Code Skills by GitHub user appariciojunior that turns Claude Code into a first-pass editor for YouTube vlogs and class videos in DaVinci Resolve Studio. You film and make the taste calls, while Claude imports, cuts retakes and dead air, keeps your B-roll, scores the video, writes clean captions, adds brand motion graphics and helps you export. The repository has 12 Skills, including setup, edit-video and rough-cut. The README says it contains skills only and no code: Claude reads the Skills and then writes small scripts with you for your setup.

Highlights:

First-pass editing in DaVinci Resolve Studio
Cuts retakes and dead air, keeps B-roll, writes captions and adds brand motion graphics
12 Skills, including setup, edit-video and rough-cut
Skills only, no code, with scripts written by Claude together with you

How to use:

First, install the folders from skills into Claude Code; the README shows copying them to `~/.claude/skills/`.
Then open Claude Code in an empty folder and say "set up my video editor".
Finally, create system/keys.env yourself as it tells you and put your speech-to-text key in it.

Who it's for:

People who edit vlogs or class videos in DaVinci Resolve and want an agent to do a first pass.

Before you start:

You need Claude Code, DaVinci Resolve Studio, ffmpeg and Python 3.9 or later.
You need your own speech-to-text service key, the music step draws on the Epidemic Sound library, and those services' charges apply.
