Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install short-form-video-retention

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent applies a three-part grammar: a hook in the first second, a pattern interrupt every two to four seconds, and a closing loop. It sets the 9:16 safe zones and prepares a frame-driven Remotion composition. You get a short video whose every cut is justified by the retention curve.

What you get

  • SKILL.md: story structure, hook types, cut rhythm, captions, loops
  • A 9:16 safe-zone table (900×1400 centre box) and a delivery checklist
  • references/retention-pacing.md: a full Remotion composition, a hook library, a method for debugging the retention curve
  • README.md: overview of the skill and its triggers

Good fit for

  • You publish Reels, TikToks or YouTube Shorts and viewers drop off after a few seconds
  • You want a reusable short-video template for several topics
  • You need to write a hook or fix the first three seconds of an edit

Not for

  • A launch film or a long video with a slow pace
  • Editing in a no-code tool (the method assumes a Remotion composition)
  • Detailed caption animation, which a neighbouring skill covers

Frequently asked questions

What do I need to use it?

A Remotion project (Node.js). The skill also mentions helper scripts that are not shipped here: checks are done with the `npx remotion` commands it lists.

Does this skill animate captions?

No. It places captions inside the safe zone and points to a neighbouring skill, `caption-animation`, for their animation. You can add plain captions without it.
