What Claude Real Video does

Claude Real Video lets an AI agent watch videos by extracting scene-aware keyframes, deduplicating frames, and transcribing audio so it can answer questions about video content. Use it when a user shares a video URL or file and wants it analyzed, summarized, or discussed.

Claude Real Video is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Claude Real Video comes from a repository tagged claude, claude-code, cli, ffmpeg and keyframe-extraction.

Excerpt

claude-real-video for AI agents

What is crv?

crv (claude-real-video) is a CLI tool that extracts meaningful frames and transcripts from videos so AI agents can "see" and "read" them. It uses scene-change detection (not fixed-interval sampling), sliding-window deduplication, and optional Whisper transcription.

Key advantage: Same 58-second clip at fixed 1fps = 58 frames. crv keeps the 26 that actually differ, and --grid packs them into 3 contact sheets. Fewer tokens, nothing missed.

Installation
