Hypit

Hypit gives AI agents (Claude Code, Codex...) a language and system to create video. Drop in a video, and your agent clones it as a complete workflow: footage, captions, B-roll and effects, all anchored to words instead of seconds.

To be clear: cloning a video is the fastest way in, not the only one. You can start from our templates, or just describe the video you want and your agent writes the workflow from scratch. Generation models are optional too: a workflow can compile captions, motion graphics and code-rendered visuals into a finished video without calling a generation model or incurring its service charges.

Install once

Install the Hypit CLI (Node.js 22.15 or newer):

npm install -g @hypit/hypit

Add the Skill to your coding agent:

npx skills add hypit-ai/hypit -g

This installs the Skill. On first use, your agent checks for the Hypit executable and helps prepare it if needed. Your video project can live anywhere.

Hypit is free to use; your Coding Agent and model services have their own accounts and charges. HypiHub is our recommended hosted model service. You can also use your own API or local models; tell your agent the service name and API documentation so it can set up the appropriate connection.

Use the Hypit skill

The /hypit skill is available to coding agents. Start a session in any empty or existing project directory and ask it to create videos for you:

/hypit Clone this video: /path/to/video.mp4, and replace the ranking content with a comparison of Hypit (official website: hypit.ai) with other AI video products.

Or start without a reference video:

/hypit Make a ranking video that puts Hypit in S tier.

Your agent can check the environment, request the credentials the video needs, generate the material, and build the finished composition.

Why Hypit

• Clone any video: drop in a video, get the whole workflow — footage, captions, B-roll, effects. Not a script breakdown.
• One workflow, 100 variants: reuse the composition and existing material; generate the parts that change.
• Pluggable components: swap the host without touching the captions. Use the library, fork it, or write your own.
• Open source: no Hypit seat pricing, per-render fees or added watermark. Model-service usage is billed by the service you choose.

What Hypit Can Build

Drop in a video and your agent clones the whole workflow — or describe what you want and it writes one from scratch. Either way you get an editable, re-runnable composition, not a one-off render.

• Paid social ads — clone a winning ad from the Meta Ad Library, swap in your product, ship 50 hook variants the same day. When it fatigues in two weeks, re-run with fresh openings; the body never changes.
• Viral clones — any TikTok, Reel, or Short becomes a template. Swap the host, the hook, the product, the language, the aspect ratio.
• TikTok Shop and affiliate videos — one format that converts, a new SKU every day. Swap the product, the price, the CTA; the structure that worked stays untouched.
• AI UGC and talking heads — narration, word-level captions, B-roll, comment stickers, beat-synced cuts, all wired automatically.
• Podcast and interview clips — split-screen layouts, speaker-aware captions, reaction overlays.
• Code-rendered videos — visuals driven entirely by front-end code, rendered locally without generation API calls.
• Localized versions — the same video in ten languages. Rewrite a line and the timing re-flows itself.

How to Contribute

Pull requests are welcome, and documentation, examples and translations count as much as code. Pick up an open issue or open one for what you want to work on, and we will help you land it. CONTRIBUTING.md has the setup, the checks CI runs and the pull request flow.

Creating a component is ordinary video-production work, and the component normally stays with the video project that owns it. When its owner wants to share it, the same package can be handed off as a versioned tarball or published under the owner's npm scope or private registry. Proposals for a component maintained in Hypit's official Distribution begin with an issue describing the shared product need; official inclusion is separate from normal community sharing.

The Development Guide covers the prerequisites, the daily commands and the repository layout.
