SkillSearch

This skill gives your AI access to Remotion's documentation for writing programmatic video code. Once added, your AI can look up how Remotion works while it builds or edits video code, so what it writes follows the documented behavior instead of guesswork.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Add the skill, then ask your AI to build or change a video in code. It will consult the Remotion docs as it works.

Then ask your AI: use the remotion-docs skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Look up Remotion documentation while writing video code
  • Write code that creates videos programmatically
  • Check how Remotion features work before using them
  • Answer questions about Remotion from its documentation

What this skill tells your AI

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

This skill teaches you how to discover and read current Remotion documentation. If this is not relevant, load Remotion Best Practices instead.

Searching the docs

Use the Algolia search API to find relevant documentation pages:

POST https://plsduol1ca-dsn.algolia.net/1/indexes/*/queries?x-algolia-api-key=3e42dbd4f895fe93ff5cf40d860c4a85&x-algolia-application-id=PLSDUOL1CA
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

{
  "requests": [
    {
      "query": "<your search query>",
      "indexName": "remotion",
      "params": "attributesToRetrieve=[\"hierarchy.lvl0\",\"hierarchy.lvl1\",\"hierarchy.lvl2\",\"url\"]&hitsPerPage=10"
    }
  ]
}

Each hit contains a url field pointing to the documentation page.

Fetching a page as Markdown

Append .md to any Remotion docs URL to retrieve its Markdown source (saves tokens):

https://www.remotion.dev/docs/use-video-config.md
https://www.remotion.dev/docs/sequence.md
https://www.remotion.dev/docs/lambda/rendermediaonlambda.md

Workflow

  1. Search Algolia for the concept or API you need.
  2. Pick the most relevant URL(s) from the results.
  3. Fetch each URL with the .md suffix.
  4. Implement using the current documentation rather than memorized API knowledge.
