## Description

Turn a reference video into a super detailed recreation or inspiration prompt. Use when the user provides, mentions, uploads, links, or points to a video and asks to analyze the design, UI, animations, transitions, scroll interactions, typography, colors, assets, WebGL/Three.js, storytelling, section-by-section behavior, or to create a prompt/article that recreates the page, app, interaction, or motion system.

# Video To Superprompt

## Goal

Convert any usable reference video into a builder-ready prompt that captures what the video shows, how it moves, how it should be rebuilt, and what assets or generated media are needed. The default output is one paste-ready prompt unless the user asks for an article, asset pack, or implementation.

## Workflow

1. **Locate the source video.**
   - Accept local paths, uploaded files, URLs, browser-visible videos, article assets, or repo media.
   - If the video is referenced but inaccessible, ask for the exact file or URL before inventing details.
   - If the user wants exact recreation, inspect any source HTML/CSS/JS or local page connected to the video before writing the prompt.

2. **Inspect the video technically.**
   - For local files, run `ffprobe` for duration, dimensions, frame rate, codec, and size.
   - Extract representative frames with `ffmpeg`, favoring timeline beats over uniform thumbnails.
   - Suggested quick pass:
     ```bash
     ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration,size:stream=width,height,r_frame_rate -of json "$VIDEO"
     mkdir -p /tmp/video-frames
     ffmpeg -y -i "$VIDEO" -vf fps=1 /tmp/video-frames/frame-%03d.jpg
     ```
   - For long or scroll-heavy videos, also extract start/middle/end and visible transition moments.
