inreels-ai/inreels-skills

Open skills for making ads, UGC video and faceless shorts from an AI agent,
built on the inReels MCP server.
The skills are MIT licensed and free. The rendering service they call is paid.
## Install
Point your agent at the install instructions and let it do the work:
Install the inReels skills: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/inreels-ai/inreels-skills/main/install.md
Or by hand:
bash
# 1. Add the MCP server
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user inreels https://www.inreels.ai/api/mcp
# 2. Copy the skills you want
git clone https://github.com/inreels-ai/inreels-skills
cp -r inreels-skills/skills/ ~/.claude/skills/
Then run /mcp, pick inreels and sign in from the browser. Or create a key
at and set it as the
server's bearer token.
Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT and Muse are all supported —

## The skills
Make something
| Skill | What it does |
| animated-short | One line → an animated short film: story, consistent character, narration, sound, rendered MP4 |
| claymation-ad | A stop-motion clay commercial: clay characters intercut with photoreal macro, cut to a real broadcast beat map |
| ugc-ad | Product image + creator + spoken script → rendered UGC video ad, with native audio |
| product-demo-ad | No presenter — the product doing its job, in motion |
| ad-creative | Angle → hook → rendered static ad creative, sized for the placement |
| faceless-video | Retention-shaped script → scenes, narration, captions → rendered MP4 |
| scary-story-video | Horror, true crime and unsolved mystery shorts, and the craft they need |
Craft the others lean on
| Skill | What it does |
| hook-writing | The first two seconds — five shapes that work, and testing them properly |
| ad-angle-testing | A set of ads that disagree usefully, instead of one ad four times |
| character-consistency | Keep the same person or product across several generated clips |
Each one states its method, names the failure modes it has actually seen, and
is honest about what it does not do.
animated-short and claymation-ad are the odd ones out: they ship working scripts and run on
whatever backend you point it at — Replicate, fal, ElevenLabs, or the inReels
MCP as the no-key option. The rest are craft and method for the MCP server
below.
## What the MCP server exposes
17 tools across two layers.
Capabilities return a finished deliverable and choose the model for you:
create_ad_video — a finished ad from a product image, with native audio.
Add a creator and it becomes a UGC ad.
create_faceless_video — script to scenes to narration to captions to MP4.
quote_ad_video, quote_faceless_video — exact price first.
Primitives render one asset and expose the full parameter surface:
generate_image, generate_video, generate_speech
quote — exact price of any primitive call, charging nothing.
Discovery and plumbing, all free:
list_models, list_voices, list_styles, list_actors
get_run_status, list_runs, get_account
upload_image, refresh_asset_url
