DramaClaw Skill

The skill binds an agent to one DramaClaw project through an API URL, an agent token and a project ID, checks the pipeline status when it activates and starts only the reported next step, one queued job per message, stopping on any error. Steps cover ingest and rewrite of an uploaded novel or script, script generation, scene and prop planning, character portraits and identity images, sketches, first frames, per-beat voice-over, per-beat video and final composition. It does not write scripts from a bare idea, and it needs a running DramaClaw backend with model access configured. The platform is source-available under the Elastic License 2.0; the skill is written for the Hermes agent and sits under .hermes beside a Hermes plugin, while the README separately describes an MCP server for Claude Code and Codex.

• 01skills CLI, for Claude Code, Codex and others

  The open skills CLI from Vercel Labs installs a skill from a GitHub repo into the folder each agent expects. It asks which skills and which agents you want, and it installs for the current project unless you add the -g flag, which installs for your user account. Add --list to see what a repo contains before you install anything.

  $ npx skills add https://github.com/dramaclaw/dramaclaw/tree/main/.hermes/skills/dramaclawCopy

• 02Claude Code, skills folder

  Copy the skill's folder, the one that holds SKILL.md, into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every project on your machine, or into .claude/skills/ in a repository to use it there and share it by committing it. Claude Code picks up changes to these folders during a session. If the folder did not exist when the session started, run /reload-skills.

• 03Claude Code, plugin marketplace

  Some repos publish a plugin marketplace, a .claude-plugin/marketplace.json file. Add it in Claude Code, then install a plugin from it with /plugin install plugin-name@marketplace-name. Plugins can bundle hooks and MCP servers along with skills, so read the details panel before you confirm.

  $ /plugin marketplace add dramaclaw/dramaclawCopy

• 04Codex, skills folder or $skill-installer

  Codex reads skills from .agents/skills in your working folder and its parent folders up to the repository root, and from $HOME/.agents/skills for every repository. Copy the skill's folder into one of them, or run $skill-installer inside Codex and ask it to install from the repo. Codex detects new skills automatically and needs a restart only if one does not appear.

We could not quote an install command from this repo's README. The commands listed here are the generic ones for any skill repository and may not apply, so check the README first.
