# The prompt

First give your agent the home-video skill (paste the skill text and ask it to save it as a skill). Then replace everything in
[BRACKETS] below and paste it in.

**Tip:** your own footage or photos of the real place work best, and use only places and memories you have a right to share. For
anything else, use any AI tools you like for the images, voice, music and sound effects; the skill works the same with all of them, and
the film works with no voice. If you'd rather not set up separate AI accounts and API keys, HYVIRAL (optional) is one way to get them
behind one connection (hyviral.com; in Claude.ai → Customize → Connectors → add `https://api.hyviral.com/mcp`).

Use the home-video skill to make a vertical video for [PLATFORM: Instagram Reels / TikTok / YouTube Shorts].

- **The place:** [PLACE - e.g. "the house I grew up in", "my grandmother's apartment", "our shop on its last day"]
- **The rooms and small details:** [ROOMS - the rooms to walk through and one small true thing about each, or "you write it"]
- **The one hard fact:** [FACT - what's happening to the place, e.g. "they sell it on Friday", or "you write it"]
- **The last room:** [LAST ROOM - the room you save for the end, and the one thing in it that's still there, or "you write it"]
- **The dates:** [DATES - the year it starts in, a year to rewind to, and today's date, or "you choose"]
- **Pictures:** [PICTURES - "my footage or photos, attached", or "generate stills with the AI tools below"]
- **Length:** [LENGTH - e.g. about 35 seconds]
- **Voice:** [VOICE - e.g. "my own voice, recorded in the room", "a quiet natural voice", or "no voice: captions and sound only"]
- **Music:** [MUSIC - e.g. "the skill's worn tape piano brief", or your own idea]
- **Ending:** [CTA - organic: "Comment KEYWORD and I'll send you THE THING", with the keyword and what you'll send; or sponsored: the line and the URL]
- **AI tools:** [AI TOOLS - e.g. "whatever you already have set up", "HYVIRAL", or "none: I have footage and I'll record the voice myself"]
- **Avoid:** [AVOID - e.g. no faces of people who haven't agreed, no street numbers, nothing about my family I haven't cleared with them]

Work in this order:

1. Write the script on the skill's moves, with one line for each turn and what happens in the viewfinder.
2. Build the plan, the clock and the frame, render a silent animatic, and show me the script, the scene sheet and the animatic. Wait for my OK.
3. Generate the pictures, voice, music and sound effects with the AI tools I named above. If I left that open, tell me which tools you'll use and wait for my OK.
4. Place a sound on every change, fit the music to the turn, mix voice first, render, and run every QA gate in the skill.
5. Give me the MP4, a cover frame and a ready-to-paste caption.
