Adds nested circles to a talking-head video that open one inside another as they are said, from the widest group to the narrowest: a market, a segment, a customer. 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 narrows from a big group to a specific one (market sizing, who a product is for, where a rule applies).

About this skill

You say

In talk.mp4 narrow from the whole company to the 12 people in the Monday call as nested circles.

It said back

I rendered talk-graphics.mp4 in the work folder. It's 1920x1080, 24.3 s, 30 fps, in the paper look. The sound is the speaker's original, unchanged. I checked the settled frame of the graphic and it reads well, with no layout warnings.

The nested circles run from 0.8 s to 7.8 s and cover the full frame while she keeps talking. Each circle opens as she says it:

Questions

Is Nested Scope free?

No. Nested Scope costs $9.99 once and stays in your Recaply account, or it comes with the Recaply plan ($19.99 a month), which opens every premium skill and prompt.

Which agents can use Nested Scope?

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode.

What do I get when I buy Nested Scope?

A ZIP of the whole skill folder (105 KB): the SKILL.md your agent follows and its 12 other files, the references, templates and scripts it uses. You download it from this page whenever you need it, and install it in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode. The Recaply plan opens it too, with every other premium skill and prompt.

How do I install Nested Scope?

Buy it, then download the ZIP from this page. For Claude Code, unzip it into .claude/skills/ in your project. For Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI, unzip it and run npx skills add ./nested-scope-overlay with your agent's flag.

What do I get from Nested Scope?

Your video with the overlay timed to the words, sound kept. Each part lands as they say it, placed from the transcript. 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5.

What does Nested Scope need?

Node 22+, Chrome and ffmpeg, and no API key. Each use costs nothing beyond your agent.

How big is Nested Scope?

13 files, about 79,869 tokens in all. The SKILL.md is about 2,206 tokens, and your agent reads it only when the job fits.

What does a run cost?

Our 1 runs took 1 min 41 s to 1 min 41 s and $0.13 to $0.13 of API use each, in Claude Code with claude-sonnet-5-5. On a Claude plan, a run counts toward your usage instead.

Do I have to name Nested Scope to use it?

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