watch
SolidWatch a video (URL or local path). Downloads with yt-dlp, extracts auto-scaled frames with ffmpeg, pulls the transcript from captions (or local whisper.cpp fallback — no API key needed), and hands the result to Claude so it can answer questions about what's in the video.

watch-and-learn
Watch a how-to / tutorial / demo video and turn the procedure it teaches into one or more working Claude Code skills. Use when the user wants to "turn this video into a skill", "watch this tutorial and make a skill", "learn how to do X from this video", "build a skill from this screencast/demo/talk", or capture a repeatable workflow shown in a video. Sends an agent to watch the video (local file or URL) with a local, free, no-API toolchain, breaks the procedure down, authors the skill(s), and verifies they actually work.
watch-local
Watch a video (URL, local path, or SMB/UNC share) fully locally. Downloads with yt-dlp, extracts auto-scaled frames with ffmpeg, ALWAYS transcribes with faster-whisper locally and compares against creator-provided captions when present. Auto-detects an NVIDIA GPU (NVDEC decode + CUDA whisper) and falls back to CPU-only mode without one. All tools run natively from a self-provisioned portable runtime -- no Docker, no system installs. No cloud API keys.
video-analysis
Understand what is actually in a video, fully locally and for free. Use this skill whenever the user wants to summarise, describe, transcribe, caption, chapter, or answer questions about a video or its audio — "what happens in this video", "summarise this screen recording", "transcribe this meeting", "what does the speaker say", "find the moment X happens", "read the text on screen", "turn this call into notes", "describe this clip for accessibility", "make chapters", "who says what". It samples timestamped frames with ffmpeg, transcribes speech with a local Whisper backend (whisper.cpp / whisperx / faster-whisper / openai-whisper), then reads the frames and transcript to answer — no cloud APIs, no keys, no per-minute cost, nothing leaves the machine. This is the understanding counterpart to ffmpeg-workbench, which transforms/encodes media (convert, compress, clip, GIF, burn subtitles). If the user wants to CHANGE a file rather than understand it, use ffmpeg-workbench instead.
