Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned video-db/skills at b47b587e28.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill, Videodb, provides perception, memory, and actions related to video content, including desktop sessions and live streams. It allows AI agents to ingest videos from files or URLs, create playable web stream links, build searchable indexes with timestamps, generate timelines with edits (subtitles, overlays, audio), and monitor live RTSP feeds for events and alerts. Ultimately, it enables the agent to understand what's happening in video content and provide actionable insights.

When to use it

  • Desktop session recording: To start or stop screen recordings including system audio and mic input, and generate summaries of those sessions.
  • Video analysis: To search for specific moments within a video based on visual elements, spoken words, or keywords.
  • Live stream monitoring: To connect to live RTSP feeds and trigger alerts based on what's happening visually or audibly.

Key capabilities

  • Desktop session recording with screen, mic, and system audio capture.
  • Video ingestion from files/URLs and transcoding (codec, bitrate, resolution).
  • Indexing of video content for visual, spoken, and keyword searches.
  • Timeline editing including subtitle generation/translation, overlays, and audio manipulation.
  • Live stream monitoring with real-time understanding and event triggering.

Example prompts

  • "Start a desktop session recording."
  • "Can you find all instances where the word 'urgent' is spoken in this video [URL]?"
  • "Create a clip from 0:30 to 1:00 of this file path /path/to/video.mp4 and add subtitles."

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill requires a URL or file path for video ingestion.
  • To view the resulting stream, you'll need to use the provided format: https://console.videodb.io/player?url={STREAM_URL}.
