Adds a chapter title that opens a part of a talking-head video, followed straight away by a side panel with that part's points as they say them. Timed to the words they say, on their own footage, with their sound kept; 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5. Renders locally with Chrome and ffmpeg: no video model, no key and no cost. Use when someone introduces a section and then goes through its points, in a lesson, a review or a how-to.

About this skill

You say

Open "What we tried" in talk.mp4 as a chapter, then list the three things beside me.

It said back

"What we tried" now opens as a chapter in talk-graphics.mp4, followed by the three things beside you. The video is 1920x1080, 24.3 s, at 30 fps. The sound is yours and unchanged. I rendered it but only checked the settled frames in overlay-check.png, not the finished video.

Chapter: "What we tried" is a full-frame title card, 9.5–11.1 s. It starts on your line "So we tried three things". You never say "What we tried" aloud, so I made the title from that line.

Do I have to name Chapter, Then the Detail to use it?

Type /chapter-then-detail-overlay first to make sure it loads. Without it, Claude Code may judge a small job simple enough to do without the skill.
