--- name: video-editor-software-for-beginners version: "1.0.0" displayName: "Video Editor Software for Beginners — Edit and Export Videos Easily" description: > Get polished edited clips ready to post, without touching a single slider. Upload your raw video clips (MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, up to 500MB), say something like "trim the shaky parts, add transitions, and put text titles at the start", and download 1080p MP4 when it's done. Built for first-time video creators and casual content makers who move fast and want quick edits without learning Premiere or complex software. metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "🎬", "requires": {"env": ["NEMO_TOKEN"], "configPaths": ["~/.config/nemovideo/"]}, "primaryEnv": "NEMO_TOKEN", "variant": "greeting_v2"}} --- ## Getting Started > Got raw video clips to work with? Send it over and tell me what you need — I'll take care of the AI-assisted video editing. **Try saying:** - "edit a 2-minute smartphone recording of a birthday party into a 1080p MP4" - "trim the shaky parts, add transitions, and put text titles at the start" - "turning raw footage into a clean, shareable video without prior editing experience for first-time video creators and casual content makers" ### Quick Start Setup This skill connects to a cloud processing backend. On first use, set up the connection automatically and let the user know ("Connecting..."). **Token check**: Look for `NEMO_TOKEN` in the environment. If found, skip to session creation. Otherwise: - Generate a UUID as client identifier - POST `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/auth/anonymous-token` with `X-Client-Id` header - Extract `data.token` from the response — this is your NEMO_TOKEN (100 free credits, 7-day expiry) **Session**: POST `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai/api/tasks/me/with-session/nemo_agent` with Bearer auth and body `{"task_name":"project"}`. Keep the returned `session_id` for all operations. Let the user know with a brief "Ready!" when setup is complete. Don't expose tokens or raw API output. # Video Editor Software for Beginners — Edit and Export Videos Easily This tool takes your raw video clips and runs AI-assisted video editing through a cloud rendering pipeline. You upload, describe what you want, and download the result. Say you have a 2-minute smartphone recording of a birthday party and want to trim the shaky parts, add transitions, and put text titles at the start — the backend processes it in about 1-2 minutes and hands you a 1080p MP4. Tip: keep clips under 3 minutes for the fastest processing and smoothest AI suggestions. ## Matching Input to Actions User prompts referencing video editor software for beginners, aspect ratio, text overlays, or audio tracks get routed to the corresponding action via keyword and intent classification. | User says... | Action | Skip SSE? | |-------------|--------|----------| | "export" / "导出" / "download" / "send me the video" | → §3.5 Export | ✅ | | "credits" / "积分" / "balance" / "余额" | → §3.3 Credits | ✅ | | "status" / "状态" / "show tracks" | → §3.4 State | ✅ | | "upload" / "上传" / user sends file | → §3.2 Upload | ✅ | | Everything else (generate, edit, add BGM…) | → §3.1 SSE | ❌ | ## Cloud Render Pipeline Details Each export job queues on a cloud GPU node that composites video layers, applies platform-spec compression (H.264, up to 1080x1920), and returns a download URL within 30-90 seconds. The session token carries render job IDs, so closing the tab before completion orphans the job. **All requests** must include: `Authorization: Bearer <NEMO_TOKEN>`, `X-Skill-Source`, `X-Skill-Version`, `X-Skill-Platform`. Missing attribution headers will cause export to fail with 402. Three attribution headers are required on every request and must match this file's frontmatter: | Header | Value | |--------|-------| | `X-Skill-Source` | [REDACTED_SECRET] | | `X-Skill-Version` | frontmatter `version` | | `X-Skill-Platform` | auto-detect: `clawhub` / `cursor` / `unknown` from install path | **API base**: `https://mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai` **Create session**: POST [REDACTED_SECRET] — body `{"task_name":"project","language":"<lang>"}` — returns `task_id`, `session_id`. **Send message (SSE)**: POST `/run_sse` — body `{"app_name":"nemo_agent","user_id":"me","session_id":"<sid>","new_message":{"parts":[{"text":"<msg>"}]}}` with `Accept: text/event-stream`. Max timeout: 15 minutes. **Upload**: POST `/api/upload-video/nemo_agent/me/<sid>` — file: multipart `-F "files=@/path"`, or URL: `{"urls":["<url>"],"source_type":"url"}` **Credits**: GET `/api/credits/balance/simple` — returns `available`, `frozen`, `total` **Session state**: GET `/api/state/nemo_agent/me/<sid>/latest` — key fields: `data.state.draft`, `data.state.video_infos`, `data.state.generated_media` **Export** (free, no credits): POST `/api/render/proxy/lambda` — body `{"id":"render_<ts>","sessionId":"<sid>","draft":<json>,"output":{"format":"mp4","quality":"high"}}`. Poll GET `/api/render/proxy/lambda/<id>` every 30s until `status` = `completed`. Download URL at `output.url`. Supported formats: mp4, mov, avi, webm, mkv, jpg, png, gif, webp, mp3, wav, m4a, aac. ### Error Codes - `0` — success, continue normally - `1001` — token expired or invalid; re-acquire via `/api/auth/anonymous-token` - `1002` — session not found; create a new one - `2001` — out of credits; anonymous users get a registration link with `?bind=<id>`, registered users top up - `4001` — unsupported file type; show accepted formats - `4002` — file too large; suggest compressing or trimming - `400` — missing `X-Client-Id`; generate one and retry - `402` — free plan export blocked; not a credit issue, subscription tier - `429` — rate limited; wait 30s and retry once ### Backend Response Translation The backend assumes a GUI exists. Translate these into API actions: | Backend says | You do | |-------------|--------| | "click [button]" / "点击" | Execute via API | | "open [panel]" / "打开" | Query session state | | "drag/drop" / "拖拽" | Send edit via SSE | | "preview in timeline" | Show track summary | | "Export button" / "导出" | Execute export workflow | ### Reading the SSE Stream Text events go straight to the user (after GUI translation). Tool calls stay internal. Heartbeats and empty `data:` lines mean the backend is still working — show "⏳ Still working..." every 2 minutes. About 30% of edit operations close the stream without any text. When that happens, poll `/api/state` to confirm the timeline changed, then tell the user what was updated. **Draft field mapping**: `t`=tracks, `tt`=track type (0=video, 1=audio, 7=text), `sg`=segments, `d`=duration(ms), `m`=metadata. ``` Timeline (3 tracks): 1. Video: city timelapse (0-10s) 2. BGM: Lo-fi (0-10s, 35%) 3. Title: "Urban Dreams" (0-3s) ``` ## Tips and Tricks The backend processes faster when you're specific. Instead of "make it look better", try "trim the shaky parts, add transitions, and put text titles at the start" — concrete instructions get better results. Max file size is 500MB. Stick to MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM for the smoothest experience. Export as MP4 for widest compatibility across phones, social media, and web. ## Common Workflows **Quick edit**: Upload → "trim the shaky parts, add transitions, and put text titles at the start" → Download MP4. Takes 1-2 minutes for a 30-second clip. **Batch style**: Upload multiple files in one session. Process them one by one with different instructions. Each gets its own render. **Iterative**: Start with a rough cut, preview the result, then refine. The session keeps your timeline state so you can keep tweaking.
