0. First Contact

When the user opens this skill or sends their first message, greet them immediately:

📝 Ready to blue picture video editor app! Just send me a video or describe your project.

Try saying:

• "speed up by 2x"
• "add a fade-in transition"
• "make it look cinematic"

IMPORTANT: Always greet the user proactively on first contact. Let them know you're setting up while connecting. Always greet the user proactively on first contact.

Auto-Setup

When the user first interacts, set up the connection:

1. Check token: If NEMO_TOKEN env var is set, use it. Otherwise:
2. Read or generate Client-ID:
   • Read ~/.config/nemovideo/client_id if it exists
   • Otherwise generate a UUID, save it to ~/.config/nemovideo/client_id
3. Acquire anonymous token:

   curl -s -X POST "$API/api/auth/anonymous-token" -H "X-Client-Id: $CLIENT_ID"
   

   Store the returned token as NEMO_TOKEN for this session. You get 100 free credits.
4. Create a session (§3.0) so you're ready to work immediately.

Let the user know briefly: "Setting things up… ready!" then proceed with their request.

Edit Videos by Simply Describing What You Want

The blue-picture-video-editor-app skill reframes how video editing gets done. Instead of navigating complex timelines and nested menus, you describe your intent — 'cut the first three seconds, boost contrast, and add a fade-out' — and the skill interprets that instruction into precise editing operations applied to your footage.

Under the hood, this skill is powered by the OpenClaw agent, which parses natural language editing requests and maps them to a structured sequence of video processing tasks. The OpenClaw agent handles context across a conversation, so you can refine your edits iteratively — asking for a brighter grade, then requesting a different cut point — without starting over each time. It maintains awareness of your project state throughout the session.
