Editing a talking-head Reel by hand eats hours that are not creative: scrubbing for the good take, trimming silence, typing captions, checking the safe zone. **An agent does that layer well when it runs a fixed pipeline.**

This is the pipeline. The Claude Code skill plus the guide behind a Reel that went from **6:31 of raw footage to 0:34 posted**, with you making the creative calls and the agent doing the rest.

## What you get

- **The skill.** A nine-phase workflow your agent follows on every Reel, ready to drop into your skills folder.
- **The kickoff prompt.** One fill-in prompt that makes the agent state the plan and list claims before it builds.
- **The rules that keep it good.** Layout alternation, word-synced text, safe zone, voice handling, and sound levels.
- **The QA checklist.** The checks to run before you open the file, including what an agent cannot verify.

## Who this is for

Founders and creators who record talking-head video and lose **a weekend to editing** each batch. If you already use Claude Code, you can install this in two minutes.

## The point

The edit is not the hard part anymore. **Consistency is.** A skill makes the agent hold the same quality bar every time, so each Reel costs you the recording and a few approvals.
