Free Editing Editor

Get edited video clips ready to post, without touching a single slider. Upload your raw video clips (MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, up to 500MB), say something like "t...

Security Scan

The skill's requests and instructions align with a cloud-based AI video editor: it needs a NEMO_TOKEN (or will obtain an anonymous one), uploads user video files to nemovideo.ai, and stores a session id; nothing requested appears unrelated to the stated purpose.

Purpose & Capability

Name and description describe a cloud video-editing service; the only declared credential (NEMO_TOKEN) and the listed API endpoints (mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai) match that purpose. The declared config path (~/.config/nemovideo/) is plausibly for session/token storage.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs the agent how to obtain/validate a token, create a session, upload video files, run edits via SSE, and export results — all expected for a remote editing workflow. The instructions do not ask the agent to read arbitrary unrelated system files or other credentials. They do assume access to user-provided video file paths for upload, which is appropriate for this skill.

Install Mechanism

Instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files. No downloads or installs are requested, which minimizes local persistence risk.

Credentials

Only a single env var (NEMO_TOKEN) is declared as required and is directly relevant. The metadata also lists a config path (~/.config/nemovideo/) which is reasonable for storing session/state, but the README does not fully specify how or where tokens/session IDs will be persisted — worth noting if you want to control token storage locations.

Persistence & Privilege

always:false and no install behavior requested. The skill will operate over the network and may store a session token or session_id locally (metadata suggests a config path), but it does not request elevated or cross-skill privileges or always-on inclusion.

Assessment

This skill appears to do what it says: it uploads your video files to a third‑party service (mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai) and uses a NEMO_TOKEN to authenticate. Before installing/use: (1) confirm you trust the nemovideo.ai service and are comfortable uploading the videos you provide (privacy/retention/terms); (2) note that if NEMO_TOKEN is not set the skill will request an anonymous token from the service and will persist session info (metadata points at ~/.config/nemovideo/) — decide if you want that stored and where; (3) the skill needs access to local video file paths you choose to upload, but does not request other system credentials; (4) if you need stronger guarantees, ask the publisher for a privacy/retention policy or run uploads through a vetted account rather than anonymous tokens. I have medium confidence because the skill is instruction-only (no code to audit) and the service domain is external — additional confidence would come from a verified upstream homepage, publisher identity, or documented storage/retention policy.

Getting Started

Got raw video clips to work with? Send it over and tell me what you need — I'll take care of the AI video editing.

Try saying:

• "edit a 2-minute unedited screen recording into a 1080p MP4"
• "trim the pauses, add transitions, and export a clean final cut"
• "editing raw footage into a finished video without paid software for content creators and students"

First-Time Connection

When a user first opens this skill, connect to the processing backend automatically. Briefly let them know (e.g. "Setting up...").

Authentication: Check if NEMO_TOKEN is set in the environment. If it is, skip to step 2.

1. Obtain a free token: Generate a random UUID as client identifier. POST to https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/auth/anonymous-token with header X-Client-Id set to that UUID. The response data.token is your NEMO_TOKEN — 100 free credits, valid 7 days.
2. Create a session: POST to https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent with Authorization: Bearer <token>, Content-Type: application/json, and body {"task_name":"project","language":"<detected>"}. Store the returned session_id for all subsequent requests.

Keep setup communication brief. Don't display raw API responses or token values to the user.

Free Editing Editor — Edit and Export Polished Videos

Send me your raw video clips and describe the result you want. The AI video editing runs on remote GPU nodes — nothing to install on your machine.

A quick example: upload a 2-minute unedited screen recording, type "trim the pauses, add transitions, and export a clean final cut", and you'll get a 1080p MP4 back in roughly 1-2 minutes. All rendering happens server-side.

Worth noting: shorter clips under 3 minutes process significantly faster.

Matching Input to Actions

User prompts referencing free editing editor, aspect ratio, text overlays, or audio tracks get routed to the corresponding action via keyword and intent classification.

User says...	Action	Skip SSE?
"export" / "导出" / "download" / "send me the video"	→ §3.5 Export	✅
"credits" / "积分" / "balance" / "余额"	→ §3.3 Credits	✅
"status" / "状态" / "show tracks"	→ §3.4 State	✅
"upload" / "上传" / user sends file	→ §3.2 Upload	✅
Everything else (generate, edit, add BGM…)	→ §3.1 SSE	❌

Cloud Render Pipeline Details

Each export job queues on a cloud GPU node that composites video layers, applies platform-spec compression (H.264, up to 1080x1920), and returns a download URL within 30-90 seconds. The session token carries render job IDs, so closing the tab before completion orphans the job.

Every API call needs Authorization: Bearer <NEMO_TOKEN> plus the three attribution headers above. If any header is missing, exports return 402.

Headers are derived from this file's YAML frontmatter. X-Skill-Source is free-editing-editor, X-Skill-Version comes from the version field, and X-Skill-Platform is detected from the install path (~/.clawhub/ = clawhub, ~/.cursor/skills/ = cursor, otherwise unknown).

API base: https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai

Create session: POST /api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent — body {"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"} — returns task_id, session_id.

Send message (SSE): POST /run_sse — body {"app_name":"nemo_agent","user_id":"me","session_id":"<sid>","new_message":{"parts":[{"text":"<msg>"}]}} with Accept: text/event-stream. Max timeout: 15 minutes.

Upload: POST /api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid> — file: multipart -F "files=@/path", or URL: {"urls":["<url>"],"source_type":"url"}

Credits: GET /api/credits/balance/simple — returns available, frozen, total

Error Codes

• 0 — success, continue normally
• 1001 — token expired or invalid; re-acquire via /api/auth/anonymous-token
• 1002 — session not found; create a new one
• 2001 — out of credits; anonymous users get a registration link with ?bind=<id>, registered users top up
• 4001 — unsupported file type; show accepted formats
• 4002 — file too large; suggest compressing or trimming
• 400 — missing X-Client-Id; generate one and retry
• 402 — free plan export blocked; not a credit issue, subscription tier
• 429 — rate limited; wait 30s and retry once

Backend Response Translation

The backend assumes a GUI exists. Translate these into API actions:

Backend says	You do
"click [button]" / "点击"	Execute via API
"open [panel]" / "打开"	Query session state
"drag/drop" / "拖拽"	Send edit via SSE
"preview in timeline"	Show track summary
"Export button" / "导出"	Execute export workflow

Reading the SSE Stream

Text events go straight to the user (after GUI translation). Tool calls stay internal. Heartbeats and empty data: lines mean the backend is still working — show "⏳ Still working..." every 2 minutes.

About 30% of edit operations close the stream without any text. When that happens, poll /api/state to confirm the timeline changed, then tell the user what was updated.

Draft field mapping: t=tracks, tt=track type (0=video, 1=audio, 7=text), sg=segments, d=duration(ms), m=metadata.

Timeline (3 tracks): 1. Video: city timelapse (0-10s) 2. BGM: Lo-fi (0-10s, 35%) 3. Title: "Urban Dreams" (0-3s)

Common Workflows

Quick edit: Upload → "trim the pauses, add transitions, and export a clean final cut" → Download MP4. Takes 1-2 minutes for a 30-second clip.

Batch style: Upload multiple files in one session. Process them one by one with different instructions. Each gets its own render.

Iterative: Start with a rough cut, preview the result, then refine. The session keeps your timeline state so you can keep tweaking.

Tips and Tricks

The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "trim the pauses, add transitions, and export a clean final cut" — concrete instructions get better results.

Max file size is 500MB. Stick to MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM for the smoothest experience.

Export as MP4 for widest compatibility across platforms and devices.
