Individual skill

varg-music-video

Directs an AI music video or a song-driven promo end to end on varg, the way the most-watched AI music videos are made: measure the song (beat grid, word timings), pitch the concept, cast and lock character references, storyboard every cut on a downbeat, approve stills before paying for video, generate Seedance 2.5 shots, run a mandatory lip-sync pass, draw lyrics and graphics in code, run review rounds and master for each platform. Use when someone asks for a music video, a clip for my song, a video for a track, a lyric video with AI footage, a singing character, an AI artist or band video, slopcore, or a launch video cut to a song. Not for a one-off generated song or single clip (use varg-ai), shot planning and 3D camera blocking only (use varg-previz), a talking character without music (use varg-character-keynote or varg-podcast-video), or a typography-only lyric video with no generated footage (use a HyperFrames music-to-video skill).

# Music video director

This skill encodes the workflow that the most-watched AI music videos on X in 2026 actually use (sources at the end): a long slopcore guide written after four viral videos, a character series with a 20M-view video, a Suno → Seedance thread, a Seedance 2.5 reference-bible guide, and a restyle-a-reference-video breakdown.

It is written as a **capability pipeline**. Each step names the capability it needs and the tool that provides it: a varg model or tool where one exists, otherwise an outside tool marked **Outside varg**. **Do not drop a step because varg lacks a tool for it.** Use the outside tool, tell the user what it needs, or stop at that gate.

Generation (images, video, voice, music, lip-sync, transcription, ffmpeg) runs on varg: the varg MCP server (`https://mcp.varg.ai/mcp`) or the `varg-ai` skill (REST at `https://api.varg.ai/v2`). Read `varg-ai` for sign-in and model details.

The agent is the crew; the user is the director. Every phase ends at a gate where the user looks at something and says yes before more credits are spent.
