This skill teaches Claude storyboard craft and then draws the panels. It defines 8 shot types, 7 camera angles, 9 camera movements, 4 continuity rules and 4 panel layouts, and follows a 3-step workflow: shot list, generate panels, assemble the board.

Panels come from the falai/flux-dev-lora app and are joined with infsh/stitch-images, both run through the belt CLI. The CLI must be installed and signed in.

Good for

Video makers planning a shoot, an ad or a music video
Film students and pre-production teams who need quick visual boards

Install storyboard-creation

Claude Code

Copy this prompt.

Install the storyboard-creation skill in Claude Code. Run this command:

npx skills add https://github.com/inference-sh/skills --skill storyboard-creation

Then check that it loaded and tell me how to use it.

2
Paste it into Claude Code. It shows the change and asks before running it.

Requires Node.js.

Pick one route for the skill, then install the belt CLI with one of the belt routes and run belt login. Every command in SKILL.md is a belt app run call, and its allowed-tools line is Bash(belt *), so the skill does nothing without belt. The folder holds 1 file, SKILL.md (repo tree). It runs belt in a shell, so there is no Claude app upload route.

Built from the package data we hold. Not yet tested by us.

Permissions

Medium risk

This skill makes your agent run belt app run commands that send your prompts and files to inference.sh and use credits on your account. Check the price of an app with belt app pricing before you start a large batch.

What it can do

Read your data
Create and change things
Delete things
Read-only mode

Watch out for

Each run uses inference.sh credits
SKILL.md does not list a price for the apps it calls. The belt README shows belt balance to check credits and belt app pricing to see the cost formula before a run. github.com
Your prompts and files go to inference.sh
Every belt app run sends its input to an inference.sh app. The belt README says local file paths in an input are uploaded by the CLI. github.com
You must install the belt CLI first
The belt README gives a download-and-review install script, Homebrew, npm and Scoop. cli-install.md in the repo says the installer downloads a binary and checks its SHA-256 checksum. The belt skill named in SKILL.md can also run brew install and npm install -g. github.com

Questions

What does the storyboard-creation skill do?

It helps Claude plan a storyboard and draw it. It defines shot types, camera angles, camera movements, continuity rules and panel layouts, then generates panels with the falai/flux-dev-lora app and stitches them into a board with infsh/stitch-images.

How do I install it?

Use the install box at the top of this page for the skill. You also need the belt CLI from inference.sh, installed with one of the belt routes in the box, and a belt login. There is no Claude app upload route because the skill runs belt in a shell.

Does it need an account or API key?

It needs an inference.sh sign-in through belt login. SKILL.md names no separate API key. The belt README shows belt balance for credits and belt app pricing for the cost of an app.

Is it safe?

It runs belt app run commands through your shell. Each run sends your prompt and any files or URLs you give it to inference.sh and uses credits. The belt CLI has to be installed first, so read its install steps before you run them.

Is there another copy of this skill?

skills.sh also lists this skill under 101-skills/superpowers, a repo whose plugin.json names inference.sh as author and inference-sh/skills as the repository. This page links to inference-sh/skills, the repo the plugin.json points to.

Who publishes this skill?

inference.sh, in its own repo github.com/inference-sh/skills. The repo's plugin.json lists inference.sh as author and https://inference.sh as homepage.

Which other skills does it point to?

Its Related Skills section lists ai-image-generation, ai-video-generation, video-prompting-guide and prompt-engineering from inference-sh/skills. They are optional.

Does it make video?

It makes still panels and a stitched board. Video generation is a different skill; SKILL.md points to ai-video-generation for that.
