## What it does

remocn searches the current component catalog and helps build a scene from ready-made parts: text motion, backgrounds, transitions, captions, or video templates. It checks a component’s purpose, length, visual style, and dependencies before reading the full reference for shortlisted options.

Components are added with `shadcn` and placed in `components/remocn/`, so the project owns the code. The animation tier `remocn` uses frame-driven props such as `speed`; `remocn-ui` primitives use state, style, variant, and theme props. UI primitives do not accept `speed`.

A Remotion project is required and can be created with `npx create-video@latest`. Network access matters: the skill does not bundle the catalog, so it stops rather than inventing props or durations when it cannot reach the documentation.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Remocn/remocn --skill remocn -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/remocn/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/remocn/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Remocn/remocn --skill remocn -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/remocn/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Remocn/remocn --skill remocn -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/remocn/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install Remocn/remocn remocn
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/remocn/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Remocn/remocn --skill remocn -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/Remocn/remocn --path plugins/remocn/skills/remocn
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/remocn/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Remocn/remocn --skill remocn -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/Remocn/remocn/tree/HEAD/plugins/remocn/skills/remocn/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- choose a transition between Remotion scenes
- add text motion to a video
- match a background to a composition style
- install a component through `shadcn`
- build a dialog or button scene from UI primitives

## Example prompts
- Find a remocn component for an animated title in my Remotion scene and install it.
- Choose a transition between these two scenes and show how to use it with `TransitionSeries`.
- Add a remocn dialog to my video and set its open state from the timeline.

  Pick, install and compose remocn components: ready-made Remotion animations, transitions,
  backgrounds, captions, UI primitives and video templates from a shadcn registry. Use when
  building a video or scene out of prebuilt parts (product demo, launch, changelog, intro,
  social clip), adding an animation, transition or background to a Remotion project, or
  choosing between components. Activate for polished Remotion video work even when remocn
  isn't named. Works alongside the Remotion skills: questions about the Remotion API itself
  (interpolate, spring, Sequence, rendering, config) belong to them, not to this skill.

# remocn

Copy-paste components for Remotion videos. Components install via `shadcn` and land in
`components/remocn/` — you own the code.

## The catalog lives at remocn.dev

This skill does not carry a copy of the component catalog. There are ~240 components and they
change; a bundled copy goes stale silently. Read the live docs instead.

**Start every component search here:**

```
https://remocn.dev/llms-components.txt
```

One table per category, every installable component, each row carrying `Use for` / `Avoid for`,
natural length, vibe, tier, dependencies, and a link to its full page. Scan it, shortlist, then
fetch only the pages you shortlisted.

**One component's full reference** — props with descriptions, worked examples, all use / don't-use
notes — is the docs URL with `.md` appended:

```
https://remocn.dev/docs/typography/blur-out-up.md
https://remocn.dev/docs/transitions/whip-pan.md
https://remocn.dev/docs/ui/components/dialog.md
```

The index gives you the exact URL per component — don't guess the section from the name, several
components live somewhere non-obvious.

Fetch with whatever your environment provides (a web-fetch tool, `curl`, `WebFetch`). If the
network is unavailable, say so and stop — do not invent props, defaults, or durations from memory,
and do not substitute a component you have not read. A wrong prop name fails at build; an invented
duration silently clips the animation.

## Installation

Prerequisites: a Remotion project (`npx create-video@latest`).

```bash
shadcn add @remocn/blur-out-up
```

`@remocn/<name>` is the canonical namespaced form (configured under `registries` in
`components.json`). The plain registry URL `https://remocn.dev/r/<name>.json` also works.

### Dependencies install automatically

Many components pull others via `registryDependencies` — `shadcn` installs them transitively.
For example, `shadcn add @remocn/typewriter` also pulls `@remocn/remocn-ui` and `@remocn/caret`.

- **`@remocn/remocn-ui`** is the shared core lib (timeline-fold hook, theme context, color math).
  Most UI Primitives depend on it. You rarely install it directly.

## Two tiers

remocn has two kinds of components — they have **different APIs**:

- **Animation tier** (`remocn`) — text animations, transitions, backgrounds, UI-block sims,
  brand/social cards, full compositions. Frame-driven. Shared props: `speed` (time multiplier),
