SC 01Overview

What it does

You describe a clip in plain language, and the skill asks for duration, aspect ratio and which reference files you have. For clips up to 15 seconds it returns two or three paste-ready Chinese prompts for Seedance 2.0 on Jimeng, with first- and last-frame image prompts where needed; longer pieces get a plan of extension-chained segments with continuity notes. Prompts follow one of ten patterns, such as text-only, reference-image consistency, camera and motion copying, video extension, sound and dialogue control, one-take shots, video editing and beat-synced cuts, and can use per-second timestamps and a negative-prompt line. It only writes prompts, so you generate on Jimeng yourself with your own account.

SC 02Install

How to install it

  • 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 songguoxs/seedance-prompt-skill
  • 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 songguoxs/seedance-prompt-skill
  • 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.

SC 03Guide

How to get the most from it

Good for

  • Writing Chinese prompts for Seedance 2.0 on Jimeng, from text-only clips to ones that combine several reference files
  • Dialogue-driven short-drama scenes, with per-second timestamps, lines tagged by speaker and emotion, and sound notes on their own line
  • Keeping a character or scene consistent by tying uploaded images to the prompt through @ references
  • Splitting pieces longer than 15 seconds into segments chained by video extension

Watch out for

  • It targets Seedance 2.0 on Jimeng only. File limits and the 15-second cap are written into the skill, and the last commit was in February 2026, so check them against the platform before relying on them.
  • The skill requires the video prompts and the image prompts to be in Chinese, and it repeats the platform rule that images or videos with realistic human faces are blocked.
  • It never calls Jimeng, so generation, credits and retries stay manual. The repo has no LICENSE file; the README only states MIT.

Typical workflow

01Step
Copy SKILL.md into .claude/skills/seedance/ in your project (or ~/.claude/skills/seedance/ for all projects), start Claude Code, and type /seedance or just describe your idea.
02Step
State what you want to shoot in one line, for example a 15-second scene with dialogue.
03Step
Answer the follow-up questions: duration, aspect ratio, and which images, videos or audio you can upload.
04Step
Review the two or three prompt versions, each with a reference list and image prompts for the frames; for longer pieces you get a segment plan instead.
05Step
Upload the references to Jimeng in the numbering the prompt uses (@图片1, @视频1 and so on), paste the prompt and generate.
06Step
Return to the chat to adjust timing, camera, lines or sound, then regenerate.
