Compilify is a small add on for Claude Code, Anthropic's command line coding assistant, that turns raw video clips into a polished before and after compilation. You drop your footage into two folders, type a slash command, and the assistant assembles a short video ready to post on TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube. The workflow is built around two folders called input/before and input/after. The skill samples three frames from every clip, scores them for sharpness using a standard image processing measure called Laplacian variance, and also scores brightness. The best window in each clip becomes the trim point. Claude then proposes a running order, usually a BEFORE title card, the before clips, an AFTER title card, and the after clips, and you can confirm or rearrange before it renders. The heavy lifting is done by ffmpeg, the standard open source video tool. One Python script handles the frame scoring and another runs ffmpeg to make title cards, normalize all clips to the same resolution and frame rate, concatenate them, and optionally mix in a background music track with a fade out. The default output is vertical 9 to 16 at around 20 to 30 seconds, but you can ask for a 16 to 9 YouTube version, custom title text such as Day 1 and Day 30, a music file, or a target duration. To install, you copy SKILL.md and two Python scripts into your Claude Code skills directory and set up a workspace folder. Requirements are Claude Code, ffmpeg, Python 3.10 or newer, and numpy.
