Beatra AI Video Studio

Overview

Beatra AI Video Studio is Beatra's official agent package for short AI video work: text-to-video, image-to-video, first/last-frame interpolation, reference-guided generation, and editing or extending an existing clip. The video is produced on the hosted, paid Beatra service (mcp.beatra.ai).

This catalog entry is a reviewed pointer, not the executable package. It contains no client code and performs no Beatra operation by itself. The package it points to bundles three standard-library Python scripts that make network calls, store a credential, and can replace their own files. Read Install and Security & Safety Notes before activating it.

The archive holds 17 regular files (no symlinks, no executable bits, no binaries), and every file is byte-identical to the source tree at that commit.

When to Use This Skill

• Use when the user explicitly wants a short AI video clip produced on Beatra and accepts that the work is paid and runs on a hosted service.
• Use when a still image should be animated, two frames interpolated, or an existing clip edited or extended by Beatra.
• Do not use for local-only or offline video editing, timeline assembly, or when the user has not agreed to send prompts and media to a third party.

Install (pinned, verified, approved twice)

Step 1: Download and verify into a review directory

Explain that this downloads an external package from cdn.beatra.ai, then ask for approval. Only after approval:

umask 077
review_dir="$(mktemp -d)"
cd "$review_dir" || exit 1
curl -fsSLO "https://cdn.beatra.ai/agent-packages/beatra-ai-video-studio/v1.2.5/beatra-ai-video-studio-skill-1.2.5.zip"
printf '%s  %s\n' \
  '679a3ddc06c7be631ef31f002f918465a26f17a189ffac723f45dfd348e1fc4a' \
  'beatra-ai-video-studio-skill-1.2.5.zip' | shasum -a 256 -c -

Stop if the check does not print OK. The expected digest comes from this catalog entry, not from a file on the same CDN.

Step 2: Inspect before activation

unzip -l beatra-ai-video-studio-skill-1.2.5.zip
unzip -q beatra-ai-video-studio-skill-1.2.5.zip
find beatra-ai-video-studio -type l -print            # expect no output
find beatra-ai-video-studio -type f -perm -111 -print # expect no output
grep -n '"auto_update": True' beatra-ai-video-studio/scripts/mcp_client.py

Optionally confirm byte identity with the public source tree (a second, independent host):

git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/beatra-ai/beatra-skills.git src
git -C src checkout --quiet 95d662f7aeddd6e2aa6da9e14f9c985e3f6b914d -- skills/beatra-ai-video-studio
(cd beatra-ai-video-studio && find . -type f | LC_ALL=C sort | xargs shasum -a 256) > archive.sha
(cd src/skills/beatra-ai-video-studio && find . -type f | LC_ALL=C sort | xargs shasum -a 256) > tree.sha
cmp archive.sha tree.sha && echo IDENTICAL

Report to the user what the review found: SKILL.md, manifest.json, 12 Markdown references, and scripts/authorize.py, scripts/mcp_client.py, scripts/uninstall.py (Python 3.10+, standard library only, no dependency installation, no lifecycle hooks). Summarize the network, credential, local-state, telemetry, and self-update behavior listed under Security & Safety Notes.

Step 3: Copy in and disable self-update before any other command

Ask for a second, separate approval, because this changes agent configuration. Then copy the reviewed tree to the host's skills directory (Claude Code shown; use the equivalent path for other hosts) and immediately turn off silent self-update for that exact path:

dest="$HOME/.claude/skills/beatra-ai-video-studio"
test ! -e "$dest" || { echo "destination exists; stop and ask the user"; exit 1; }
cp -R beatra-ai-video-studio "$dest"
