Getting started
From zero to your agent producing finished, exported videos — three steps, no API keys.
Install
Connect the Clueso MCP
This is the only capability the skills need — the Clueso MCP handles projects, clips, motion, voiceover, and export. The server URL is:
https://connect.clueso.io/mcpPick your agent:
This setup requires a ChatGPT paid plan (Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise, or Edu).
- Open ChatGPT and go to Settings.
- Click Apps, then enable Developer Mode.
- Click Add (or Create) and enter the following URL:https://connect.clueso.io/mcp
- Name it Clueso and save.
- Authorize via the browser sign-in.
- In chat, click the + icon → More → Developer mode to activate.
To verify: ask your agent “Show me my most recently updated Clueso project” and approve the tool call.
Install the skills
The installer detects your agent and installs all skills:
$npx skills add desklamp-developers/skillsOr pick a single skill:
$npx skills add desklamp-developers/skills --skill brief-to-launch-videoClaude Code users can alternatively install via the plugin marketplace: /plugin marketplace add desklamp-developers/skills
Ask for a video
“Make a launch video for our new feature.” “Turn this help article into an explainer.” “Polish this screen recording.” Your agent picks the right skill, scripts, composes, narrates — and hands you an exported video.
FAQ
What is an Agent Skill?
A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file — step-by-step instructions an AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, and 20+ others) loads on demand to perform a specialized task. These skills teach agents how to create and edit videos with Clueso.
Do I need any API keys?
No. Every skill here runs on the Clueso MCP and nothing else — no external APIs, no local binaries, no configuration. Connect the Clueso MCP in your agent and run one npx command: npx skills add desklamp-developers/skills
How do I install a single skill?
Add --skill to the install command, e.g. npx skills add desklamp-developers/skills --skill brief-to-launch-video. Claude Code users can alternatively use /plugin marketplace add desklamp-developers/skills.
What is the Clueso MCP?
Clueso is an AI video platform. Its MCP server exposes video creation to agents — projects, clips, motion elements, AI voiceover, and export — so an agent can produce a finished video end to end.
Which agents are supported?
Any agent that supports Agent Skills: Claude Code, claude.ai, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Cline, Roo Code, Amp, opencode, Zed, GitHub Copilot, and more. The npx installer detects your agent automatically.
Can I contribute a skill?
Yes — the repository is open source under Apache-2.0. Copy the template, follow the authoring spec (declare every dependency; Clueso-MCP-only skills are strongly preferred), and open a pull request.
