Video text capability for agent workflows
Short Video Text Skill for Agents
Videosays is not just a manual link submission page. It is a text gateway for AI agents. Use it as a Skill, CLI, or REST API so agents can process public short-video links and continue with summarization, tagging, analysis, and archiving.
The web app and Skill use the same task and result workflow · Publicly accessible links only
What you get
Agents receive actionable results, not just webpage text
The Skill tells an agent how to authenticate, submit links, poll long jobs, and request text, timeline, SRT, or VTT output.
The user sends a public video link to an AI agent.
The agent follows the Videosays Skill and waits for the task.
The agent summarizes, analyzes, or stores the transcript.
The complete agent workflow
Install or read the Skill
Install through a Skill directory or point the agent to videosays.com/SKILL.md.
Authorize once
The CLI opens browser login and stores an API key for later requests.
Ask in natural language
Send a video link and request text, timeline, SRT, or VTT.
Use cases for short video text skill
Let agents extract spoken text from short videos
Turn competitor videos into analyzable scripts
Write short-video material into knowledge bases
Provide stable video-to-text infrastructure for custom agents
Why agents need a dedicated video text entry point
Agents are strong at analyzing and organizing text, but they cannot directly work with speech in short videos. Videosays converts share links into stable text so later steps such as summaries, labels, and script analysis can continue in the same workflow.
How it differs from ordinary extraction tools
Many tools stop at opening a web page, pasting a link, and copying the result. Videosays emphasizes integration: Skill for natural-language agent calls, CLI for local automation, and API for products and custom runtimes.
Agent scenarios it supports
Use it for short-video operations assistants, competitor analysis agents, material library automation, script breakdowns, or knowledge-base ingestion.
FAQ
Is Videosays only for OpenClaw?
No. OpenClaw can use it as a Skill. Codex, Claude, Hermes, and custom agent environments can connect through CLI or REST API.
How are Skill and API related?
Skill and CLI are convenient entry points. The underlying capability can also be used directly through API task submission, status checks, and result retrieval.
What can an agent do after transcription?
It can summarize, extract keywords, break down hooks and offers, create subtitle drafts, or write results into Notion, Feishu, databases, and knowledge bases.
