What is Claude Code?
Short answer
Claude Code is a tool from Anthropic that lets Claude read files, run commands and complete multi-step tasks on your computer, usually from a terminal. Skills extend it with packaged instructions. For video, it can drive tools such as ffmpeg and run editing skills. A paid Claude plan is required.
What does Claude Code do?
It works with the files and tools on your machine. You describe a goal, and it plans steps, runs commands and shows results, asking before risky actions such as installing or replacing files.
What are skills?
A skill is a folder of instructions, templates and scripts that Claude reads when you name it, so repeated jobs follow the same tested steps. Layers and Bold are examples for video.
What do you need?
Claude Code on a paid Claude plan, plus the tools a skill lists, such as ffmpeg. The setup guide walks through it. SkilledCut is not affiliated with Anthropic.
What are the limits?
It can misunderstand instructions, so review its output, and a skill does not make creative decisions for you.
Frequently asked questions
Is Claude Code only for programmers?
It was built for coding, but you can give it plain-language tasks such as processing video, as long as you are comfortable running a terminal tool.
Do I need a paid plan?
Yes. A paid Claude plan is required to use Claude Code with these skills.
Where is my video processed?
Skills render on your computer, but Claude itself is a service, so read Anthropic's terms for what is sent.
Can I use it on Windows?
The SkilledCut setup is written for a Mac, so check the requirements first.
