Shorts From Takes

Combine several raw clips — alternate takes, separate shots, or existing reels — into one finished vertical Short in a consistent house style, then generate platform-tuned posting metadata. This skill is a thin preset over video-use: video-use is the engine (transcription, timeline inspection, loudnorm, ffmpeg know-how); this skill carries the recipe — how to select and order the clips, the look, the caption style, the render script, and the metadata playbook.

When this applies

Trigger and content coverage are in the description above. The one routing rule worth repeating: for a general/freeform edit of a single video, use video-use directly — this skill is specifically for combining several clips into one posted Short.
