SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a vague intention like "I want to make a video about coffee" into a concrete, approved creative direction is hard; ideas stay scattered and downstream scriptwriting drifts off-course. This Skill structures the ideation phase of an AI video pipeline so one validated concept is locked before any scripting begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Concept Generation: Produces 3-5 genuinely different video directions, each with a catchy name, a 3-second hook, core message, mood/tone, and a three-part structure. - Criteria-Based Scoring: Rates each concept 1-5 on audience fit, feasibility with the chosen AI engine, novelty, and viral potential on the target platform, with a reasoned recommendation. - Approval Gate & Artifact Output: Waits for explicit user selection, then writes a complete concept.md (including locked parameters from the orchestrator) to the project docs folder for the script-writing step. - Use Case: A marketer wants a short TikTok video for a new coffee brand but has no angle. The Skill collects topic, audience, and goal, proposes five concepts (emotional story, direct demo, comparison, etc.), scores them, and records the approved direction for the next pipeline stage. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to brainstorm video ideas for your product or topic, providing your target audience, goal, platform, and expected duration so it can propose and score several concepts for you to approve.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I brainstorm AI video ideas before writing a script?▼

Provide your topic or product, target audience, goal, platform, and expected duration. The Skill generates 3-5 distinct concepts, each with a 3-second hook, core message, mood, and structure, then scores them so you can pick one direction.

What criteria are used to evaluate video concepts?▼

Each concept is scored 1-5 on four criteria: audience fit, feasibility with the chosen AI video engine, novelty, and viral potential on the target platform. The Skill also states its recommended direction with a two-sentence rationale.

Does this Skill write the video script or shot list?▼

No. Detailed scripting and shot lists are explicitly out of scope and handled by later pipeline steps (script-writer and storyboard skills). This Skill only locks one approved concept and records it in concept.md.

What inputs are required before brainstorming can start?▼

It needs locked parameters from the video orchestrator (engine, platform, language, mode) plus five minimum inputs: topic/product, audience, goal, target platform, and expected duration. Missing items are asked in batches of at most three questions with default suggestions.

Where is the approved video concept saved?▼

The approved concept is written to concept.md under docs/video-projects/<project-slug>/, including the chosen direction in full, one-line summaries of rejected concepts, and the locked engine parameters passed from the orchestrator.
