After adding the skill, point your AI at the video you want captioned and ask it to add the captions. The skill's code lives in the remotion-dev/skills repository on GitHub if you want to see how it works.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by remotion-dev/remotion in packages/codex-plugin/skills/remotion-captions/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

All captions must be processed in JSON. The captions must use the Caption type which is the following:

import type { Caption } from "@remotion/captions";

This is the definition:

  text: string;
  startMs: number;
  endMs: number;
  timestampMs: number | null;
  confidence: number | null;
  pageBreakAfter?: boolean;
};
