The kanban prefix makes the skill discoverable alongside `kanban-orchestrator`
and `kanban-worker`, and signals up front that this skill drives the kanban
plugin rather than being a generic video tool.
Updated:
- directory rename
- SKILL.md frontmatter `name:` and H1
- setup.sh.tmpl header
Meta-pipeline that wraps any video request — narrative film, product /
marketing, music video, explainer, ASCII, generative, comic, 3D,
real-time/installation — in a Hermes Kanban pipeline. Performs adaptive
discovery, designs an appropriate team for the requested style, generates
the setup script that creates Hermes profiles + initial kanban task, and
helps monitor execution.
Routes scenes to whichever existing Hermes skill fits each beat
(`ascii-video`, `manim-video`, `p5js`, `comfyui`, `touchdesigner-mcp`,
`blender-mcp`, `pixel-art`, `baoyu-comic`, `claude-design`, `excalidraw`,
`songsee`, `heartmula`, …) plus external APIs for TTS, image-gen, and
image-to-video. Kanban orchestration uses the `kanban-orchestrator` and
`kanban-worker` skills.
The single-project workspace layout, profile-config patching pattern,
SOUL.md-per-profile model, and `--workspace dir:<path>` discipline are
adapted from alt-glitch's original kanban-video-pipeline at
https://github.com/NousResearch/kanban-video-pipeline. This skill
generalizes those patterns across video styles and replaces the original
string-replacement config patcher with a PyYAML-based one that touches
only `toolsets` and `skills.always_load` (preserving security-sensitive
fields like `approvals.mode`).
Includes:
- SKILL.md — workflow + critical rules
- references/ — intake, role archetypes, tool matrix, kanban setup,
monitoring, six worked examples
- assets/ — brief / setup.sh / soul.md templates
- scripts/ — bootstrap_pipeline.py (plan.json -> setup.sh) and
monitor.py (poll + issue detection)
