# Video to Article Conversion Workflow
This skill automates the conversion of lecture/presentation videos into various text formats including transcripts, outlines, and article drafts.
## Workflow Overview
1. **Setup Folder** - Create properly named folder if needed
2. **Validate Input Metadata** - Check for README.md with required frontmatter
3. **Extract Audio** - Convert video to MP3 using ffmpeg
4. **Transcribe** - Generate text transcript using ElevenLabs API
5. **Process Text** - Create progressive text refinements
## Step 0: Folder Setup (if starting from scratch)
If user is starting a new talk/lecture conversion and no folder exists yet:
Create folder using format: `YYYY Title of Talk`
After creating folder, navigate into it and proceed with workflow.
## Step 1: Validate Metadata
Look for `README.md` in the current directory with these frontmatter fields:
- `title` - Lecture/presentation title
- `speaker` - Speaker name
- `date` - Presentation date (YYYY-MM-DD)
- `lang` - Presentation language (e.g., "english", "czech", "spanish")
- `abstract` - Brief description
- `slides` - Link to slides (or file path)
- `video` - Optional: link to video
### If README.md is Missing or Incomplete
Ask the user for the missing information:
```
- What is the lecture title?
- Who is the speaker?
- What date was this presented?
- What language is the presentation in?
- Brief description or abstract?
- Link to slides or presentation file?
```
Create or update README.md with
