A "money-printer" video-generation skill — one command turns any TierVibe tier list into a narrated video, with every step engineered tighter than the generic generators.

1. Make the tier list. With TierList-Maker installed in your AI tool, enter:
/tierlist-maker Make a tier list of America's most popular sports, with detailed commentary.

2. Make the video. With TierList-Video-Maker installed in your AI tool, enter:
/tierlist-video-maker Turn https://tiervibe.com/t/UxDgrOcQxd into a video
（Chinese: /tierlist-video-maker 把 https://tiervibe.com/t/ZY70IpV0K8 制作成视频）

TierList videos carry depth and a point of view — who's S-tier, who's trashed, who got snubbed — which is inherently controversial and shareable. On nearly every video platform this format routinely pops off, earning plays, followers, and a real path to monetization.
There are already video generators out there, but the output is usually mediocre: the thumbnail gets blown up blurry, cards land in the wrong tier, the intro/outro are silent, subtitles drift from the voice, and a static board plays start-to-finish with no rhythm. This skill does each step properly:
- Board-first AI vision — the AI reads the whole board first (with tier labels + neighbor cards as context) to identify every card, then cross-checks each high-res card image against it. The board is the source of truth for tier and order — not isolated single-logo guessing, so cards are identified correctly and never misplaced.
- True high-res board background — Playwright captures the public page's
[data-testid="tier-grid"]at ~2560px wide, not a 600px thumbnail stretched blurry. - AI-written narration, reviewed before production — not a rigid template read aloud; revise freely, render only after you approve.
- Multi-language natural-voice TTS — zh / en / ja / ko via edge-tts, cross-platform, with spoken intro and outro (no silent title frames).
- Subtitles timed to the real audio — the SRT is generated from each segment's measured audio duration, not a fixed 3-second guess, so subtitles stay in sync.
- Card zoom overlay + scrolling tier-list background — the narrated card centers and zooms while the background scrolls to its row, giving the video rhythm instead of a static board from head to tail.
- Pairs with
TierList-Maker— make a deep, content-rich tier list first, then turn it into a video. Quality starts at the source.
- Make a deep, content-rich tier list with TierList-Maker and publish it on tiervibe.com.
- Paste the published post's link (
https://tiervibe.com/t/xxxxx) to this skill — it turns the list into a narrated video, fully automated.
Only published posts. This skill makes a video from a published TierVibe post. A draft / a post you're still editing has no board image and is not publicly readable, so it can't be turned into a video — publish it on TierVibe first.
- Fetch the tier list data + card images from the TierVibe public read API.
- Capture a high-resolution board from the public post page (Playwright runs the same
html-to-imageexport the in-page "download whole image" button uses — automated, no TierVibe server call). - AI vision identifies each card (board-first: whole board first, per-card cross-check second, board is truth).
- Narration script — generated, then user-reviewable before production.
- TTS via edge-tts (multi-language, cross-platform, with spoken intro/outro).
- Video — scrolling tier-list background + per-card zoom overlay + subtitles (SRT timed to real audio).
- Works with the agents you already use — Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, and any agentskills.io-compatible tool.
The TierVibe server only stores a 600px thumbnail of the board, not a
high-resolution one. For a sharp 1080p background, this skill reproduces the
user-side "download whole image" action in a script: a headless Chromium opens
the public read page and runs html-to-image on the tier-grid DOM. The export
stays a client-side action — no TierVibe server call is made for the board
image — the script is just doing what a human clicking the download button
would do.
Requires the TierVibe deploy to have shipped the
data-testid="tier-grid"attribute on the read page. If the capture step reports "tier-grid not found", the skill falls back to the 600px server thumbnail.
- Install the skill (see below), then say: "Make a video from this TierVibe tier list: https://tiervibe.com/t/xxxxx"
- Review the generated narration script
- Get your video +
.srt
This repo ships two marketplace catalogs so the same plugin installs on both Claude Code and Codex/ChatGPT-style agent tools:

Add this repo as a marketplace, then install the plugin:
/plugin marketplace add edison7009/TierList-Video-Maker
/plugin install tierlist-video-maker@video-maker
Skill auto-loads on triggers like "make a video from this TierVibe tier list", or invoke as /video-maker:tierlist-video-maker.
- Open ChatGPT → Plugins.
- Click the ⬇️ icon (top-right).
- Choose Add plugin marketplace.
- Paste the repo URL:
https://github.com/edison7009/TierList-Video-Maker.git - Confirm;
tierlist-video-makerappears in the plugin list — enable it.
Then say "Make a video from this TierVibe tier list: https://tiervibe.com/t/xxxxx" in chat to trigger it. The AI fetches the board + cards, captures the high-res board, drafts a narration script for your review, then renders the video.
The repo ships .agents/plugins/marketplace.json (Codex schema). Add and enable:
codex plugin marketplace add edison7009/TierList-Video-Maker
