title: Create Videos with Remotion Skills
description: Use goose with Remotion agent skills to generate programmatic videos with React
---

import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
import GooseBuiltinInstaller from '@site/src/components/GooseBuiltinInstaller';

goose can create programmatic videos using [Remotion](https://www.remotion.dev/), a framework for creating videos with React. By loading [Remotion Agent Skills](https://www.remotion.dev/docs/ai/skills), goose gains knowledge of best practices for animations, compositions, text effects, and video rendering.

### Prerequisites

- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) 18 or later
- Install [Remotion Agent Skills](https://www.remotion.dev/docs/ai/skills) by running `npx skills add remotion-dev/skills` in your terminal

:::note Remotion License
Remotion is free for individuals and small teams, but requires a [commercial license](https://www.remotion.dev/license) for companies with 3+ employees.
:::

## Configuration

Enable the [Summon extension](/docs/mcp/summon-mcp) to allow goose to load and use Agent Skills.

<Tabs groupId="interface">
  <TabItem value="ui" label="goose Desktop" default>
  <GooseBuiltinInstaller
    extensionName="Summon"
  />
  </TabItem>
  <TabItem value="cli" label="goose CLI">

  1. Run the `configure` command:
  ```sh
  goose configure
  ```

  2. Choose to `Toggle Extensions`
  ```sh
  ┌   goose-configure 
  │
  ◇  What would you like to configure?
  │  Toggle Extensions 
  │
  ◆  Enable extensions: (use "space" to toggle and "enter" to submit)
  // highlight-start    
  │  ● summon
  // highlight-end
  |
  └  Extension settings updated successfully
  ```
  </TabItem>
</Tabs>

## Example Usage

In this example, we'll ask goose to create a terminal-style video that demonstrates a git workflow. The video will feature typewriter effects, realistic terminal output, and a celebratory animation at the end.

:::info LLM
Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.5 was used for this example.

### goose Prompt

```
Create a terminal-style video showing a git workflow: type out git add ., 
then git commit -m 'feat: add new feature', then git push origin main. 
Each command should appear with a typewriter effect, followed by realistic output. 
End with 'Deployed to production 🚀'
```
