Hypit skill: make or clone videos with your coding agent

• Watches a reference video, reads its frames and speech

  Records what the reference does and why it holds attention in project files (Analysis and Timeline), then adapts it to your subject.

  Runs code · Understand a reference

• Your goal in Brief, the agent's creative answer in Treatment

  Project notes the agent keeps current so another session can pick up the work.

  Write · Brief and Treatment

• Prompts for images, voice and video models

  The agent reads the image, voice and video direction guides before writing prompts, then generates the footage and sound the video needs.

  Try: “Clone this video, but make it about my coffee brand. Here is the reference.”

  Runs code · Direct the material

• Captions, B-roll, motion graphics and effects tied to words

  Builds the video from a script, timeline and components, previewing in Hypit Studio and checking snapshots.

  Runs code · Compose and refine

• Installs the executable, connects a model service, prepares tools

  Guides installing the hypit program and connecting HypiHub or your own key through hypit auth. It may prepare local tools and downloads.

  Runs code · Set up the program and services

• Agree billing accounts and budget before paid work

  The agreed scope is saved in the Brief and applies across generation and processing. Changes beyond it need your decision.

  Read · Money rule

• Watch the result, then export an encoded video

  The skill's rule is "done means watched". Browser review and final export are separate steps.

Watch out for

• It spends real money, billed to the model-service account you connect

  Video, image, voice and transcription models are paid. The charge lands on your HypiHub account, or on the provider that issued your own API key. Hypit itself has no seat pricing or per-render fee, and an installed skill supplies no credits. Before paid work the SKILL.md tells the agent to agree the billing accounts, the covered work and a budget with you, save that in your project Brief, and ask you before going past it. Signing in is separate from that: SKILL.md says account setup gives access, and the agreement gives spending authority. The agreement is a rule the agent follows, not a limit the account enforces, so also set a spending limit on the account or key.

• It installs software and downloads models

  The references install the @hypit/hypit package with npm and may prepare ffmpeg, uv, browsers and model files. Read each install command before you approve it.

• Your media and prompts go to model providers

  References, scripts and generated material are sent to HypiHub or whichever service you connect. Do not use private footage you cannot share with those providers.

• hypit auth login opens a browser sign-in to HypiHub

  The HypiHub route runs `hypit auth login hypihub.default`, which prints a sign-in URL for you to open and authorize, and stores the resulting credential in the local store (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Locker, or an owner-private file on Linux). The references do not list which permissions the HypiHub sign-in grants, so check what the consent screen asks for. Login, diagnosis and pricing checks do not submit generation, but paid runs use that account afterward. You can import a key file with `--from` instead.

• It can download videos from URLs

  A reference describes explicit hypit download commands. Download only videos you have the right to use.
