Auto Shorts Repurposer

Goal

Turn long-form media into a short-form clip plan with clear timestamps, captions, and platform-ready packaging notes.

Best fit

  • Use when the user provides a long video, livestream, or podcast and wants 3 to 20 short clips.
  • Use when the user wants hooks, captions, titles, and thumbnail direction drafted for short platforms.
  • Use when the user can provide brand tone, audience, and target platforms.

Not fit

  • Avoid when the user requests auto publishing or account access to post content.
  • Avoid when the user lacks rights or consent to repurpose the source media.
  • Avoid when the source has no usable audio or transcript and the user cannot provide one.

Quick orientation

  • references/overview.md for workflow and quality bar.
  • references/auth.md for access and token handling.
  • references/endpoints.md for optional integrations and templates.
  • references/webhooks.md for async event handling.
  • references/ux.md for intake questions and output formats.
  • references/troubleshooting.md for common issues.
  • references/safety.md for safety and privacy guardrails.

Required inputs

  • Source media file path or URL, plus any existing transcript.
  • Target platforms and constraints (length range, aspect ratio, language).
  • Desired clip count and focus topics.
  • Brand tone, keywords, and banned topics.

Expected output

  • Clip shortlist with timestamps, hook lines, and rationale.
  • Caption drafts and on-screen text per clip.
  • Hashtag and title suggestions.
  • Thumbnail brief or cover-frame suggestions.
  • Optional cut list instructions for an editor.

Operational notes

  • Work from transcripts when possible and verify timestamps against the source.
  • Prefer short, self-contained moments with a clear hook in the first 1 to 2 seconds.
  • Deliver outputs as drafts only; do not publish or upload.

Security notes

  • Do not request account credentials or access tokens for posting.
  • Avoid sharing source media beyond the user-provided context.

Safe mode

  • Analyze media and produce draft clip plans, captions, and metadata only.
  • Use read-only tooling and keep outputs in local files when requested.

Sensitive ops

  • Publishing or uploading content is out of scope and must not be attempted.
