FFHub FFmpeg Skill for Claude Code, Codex & Cursor

Install the FFHub FFmpeg Agent Skill in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, and 40+ coding agents to process media in the cloud.

The open-source FFHub FFmpeg Skill lets a coding agent turn plain-language media requests into native FFmpeg commands and run them on FFHub cloud. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Cline, Windsurf, and 40+ Agent Skills-compatible tools.

Using ChatGPT, Claude.ai, or another general assistant instead? Give it llms.txt for accurate API context; the installable Skill is for coding agents that support Agent Skills.

Installation

npx skills add ffhub-io/ffhub-ffmpeg

Setup

Set your API key as an environment variable:

export FFHUB_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY

Usage Examples

Once installed, describe what you want in your coding agent:

  • "Compress this video to under 10MB"
  • "Extract audio from video.mp4 as MP3"
  • "Convert all MOV files to MP4"
  • "Trim the first 30 seconds from input.mp4"
  • "Create a thumbnail from video.mp4 at the 5 second mark"

How It Works

  1. You describe the task in natural language
  2. The AI skill translates your description into an FFmpeg command
  3. Local files are uploaded automatically
  4. The command runs on FFHub cloud infrastructure
  5. The result is downloaded to your local machine

No need to memorize FFmpeg flags or syntax - just say what you need.
