   SKILL SETUP v1.3

1. Notify the user:

   • Immediately tell them: "URL: https://github.com/PiotrLason/video-to-code-skill"
   • Immediately tell them: "Help: run /video-to-code-skill -> show-help-video-to-code-skill to display the full plugin README.md with Markdown formatting."
   • Tell them "Initializing video-to-code environment..."
   • Immediately tell them: "Documentation: open ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/README.md for setup, usage, parameters, outputs, and troubleshooting."

2. Ensure storage folder exists:

   mkdir -p ~/video-to-code-skill-storage
   

   • If the folder already existed, tell the user: "Storage folder already exists at ~/video-to-code-skill-storage"
   • If it was just created, tell the user: "Created storage folder at ~/video-to-code-skill-storage"

3. Check and install dependencies:

   • Always use /usr/bin/python3 for checking and installing — this is the same interpreter the run skill uses.
   • Check cv2, numpy, and whisper separately. Only install missing packages.
   • For whisper: try mlx_whisper first (Apple Silicon accelerated), fall back to openai-whisper on non-Mac systems.

   /usr/bin/python3 -c "import cv2" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user opencv-python
   /usr/bin/python3 -c "import numpy" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user numpy
   /usr/bin/python3 -c "import mlx_whisper" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -c "import whisper" 2>/dev/null || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user mlx-whisper || /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --user openai-whisper
   

4. Check and install ffmpeg:

   which ffmpeg || brew install ffmpeg || echo "ffmpeg not found — install it manually (e.g. apt install ffmpeg on Linux)"
   

5. Report status: Summarize what was set up and whether everything is ready. Example:

   • Storage folder: ready
   • opencv-python: installed
   • numpy: installed
   • mlx-whisper or openai-whisper: installed
   • ffmpeg: installed
   • Documentation: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/README.md
   • Help command: /video-to-code-skill -> show-help-video-to-code-skill
   • "Environment is ready. Place a video file (.mov, .mp4, .webm) in ~/video-to-code-skill-storage and run /video-to-code-skill -> run-video-to-code-skill to analyze it."
