claude-code-video-toolkit
Tell Claude Code what video you want — it writes the script, generates the voiceover, music, and visuals, and renders the MP4. An AI-native video production workspace: the skills, commands, templates, and tools your AI agent needs to take a video from concept to final render, on open-source models that cost cents (voiceover ~$0.01, AI video clips ~$0.23).

Made with itself: this toolkit in 90 seconds, made with this toolkit. Every terminal line on screen is the real
output of the command that made that part, and the bill is measured ($0.33).

Quick Start
git clone https://github.com/digitalsamba/claude-code-video-toolkit.git
cd claude-code-video-toolkit
uv sync # Optional: AI voiceover, image gen, music, moviepy examples
claude # Open Claude Code in the toolkit
Python dependencies are managed with uv — uv sync creates .venv/ and installs everything from the lockfile in seconds. No uv yet? curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh (macOS/Linux) or powershell -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex" (Windows).
Then in Claude Code:
/setup # Configure cloud GPU, storage, voice (~5 min, mostly free)
/video # Create your first video
That's it. /setup walks you through everything interactively — cloud GPU provider, file transfer, voice config. /video creates a project from a template and guides you through the whole workflow.
What's free: The toolkit leans heavily on open-source AI models — voiceovers (Qwen3-TTS), image generation (FLUX.2), music (ACE-Step), and more. You deploy them to your own cloud GPU account and run them at cost. Cloudflare R2 has a generous free tier (10GB, zero egress), and Modal gives $30/month free compute on the Starter plan — more than enough for a few 5-minute videos a month.
Requirements: Node.js 22+ (24 LTS recommended) and Claude Code. uv recommended for the AI tools (it installs Python 3.10+ for you). FFmpeg optional.
Want to skip setup and just render something?
cd examples/hello-world && npm install && npm run render
No API keys needed — outputs an MP4 immediately.
