Remotion Spec Translator

Orchestrates the complete translation pipeline from motion design specifications to working Remotion code. This skill acts as a coordinator that delegates work to specialized skills for each aspect of the translation.

What This Skill Does

Orchestrates the translation by:

1. Coordinating pipeline — Calls specialized skills in correct order
2. Parsing specs — Extracts requirements for each skill
3. Managing handoffs — Ensures output from one skill feeds into next
4. Validating completeness — Confirms all scenes implemented
5. Documenting workflow — Tracks pipeline progress

Scope Boundaries

IN SCOPE:
- Pipeline orchestration and coordination
- Spec parsing and requirement extraction
- Skill delegation and sequencing
- Progress tracking and validation
- Workflow documentation

OUT OF SCOPE:
- Direct code generation (delegated to specialist skills)
- Implementation details (handled by component/animation skills)
- Manual file creation (handled by scaffold skill)

Orchestration Workflow

The pipeline executes in this sequence:

VIDEO_SPEC.md (Input)
    ↓
Step 1: /remotion-scaffold
    ↓ outputs: SCAFFOLD_MANIFEST.md + folder structure
Step 2: /remotion-animation
    ↓ outputs: ANIMATION_CONFIG.md + animation constants
Step 3: /remotion-composition
    ↓ outputs: COMPOSITION_STRUCTURE.md + Sequence layout
Step 4: /remotion-component-gen (per scene)
    ↓ outputs: SCENE_COMPONENT.md × N scenes
Step 5: /remotion-render-config
    ↓ outputs: RENDER_CONFIG.md + render commands
    ↓

Skill Delegation Strategy

When to Delegate

1. Parse spec → Extract requirements for each skill
2. Check dependencies → Ensure prerequisites met
3. Call skill → Provide focused input
4. Capture output → Store for next skill
5. Validate → Confirm output quality
6. Proceed → Move to next step

Delegation Examples

// Step 1: Scaffold
const scaffoldInput = {
  projectName: "ProductDemo",
  duration: 30,
  fps: 30,
  dimensions: "1920x1080",
  scenes: ["Intro", "Features", "Demo", "CTA"]
};
// Call: /remotion-scaffold

// Step 2: Animation
const animationInput = {
  springConfigs: extractSpringConfigs(spec),
  interpolations: extractInterpolations(spec),
  timing: extractAnimationTiming(spec)
};
// Call: /remotion-animation

// Step 3: Composition
const compositionInput = {
  scenes: [
    { name: "intro", durationSeconds: 5 },
    { name: "features", durationSeconds: 10 },
    { name: "demo", durationSeconds: 10 },
    { name: "cta", durationSeconds: 5 }
  ],
  fps: 30
};
// Call: /remotion-composition

// Step 4: Component Gen (per scene)
for (const scene of spec.scenes) {
  const componentInput = {
    sceneName: scene.name,
    visualDescription: scene.visual,
    animationDetails: scene.animation,
    assets: scene.assets
  };
  // Call: /remotion-component-gen
}

// Step 5: Render Config
const renderInput = {
  platform: "YouTube",
  quality: "high",
  format: "MP4"
};
// Call: /remotion-render-config

Spec Parsing Helpers

Extract Spring Configs

function extractSpringConfigs(spec: string) {
  // Parse animation details for spring parameters
  // Look for: damping, stiffness, mass values
  // Return: SPRING_CONFIGS object
}

Extract Scene Timing

function extractSceneTiming(spec: string) {
  // Parse scene headers for timing (0s - 5s)
  // Calculate frame numbers
  // Return: Scene timing array
}

Extract Color Palette

function extractColorPalette(spec: string) {
  // Parse Color Palette section
  // Extract hex codes and names
  // Return: COLORS object
}

Extract Asset List

function extractAssets(spec: string) {
  // Parse Assets sections per scene
  // Collect all required assets
  // Return: Asset checklist
}

Progress Tracking

The orchestrator tracks pipeline progress:

Pipeline Progress: ProductDemo
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✅ Step 1/5: Scaffold (remotion-scaffold)
✅ Step 2/5: Animation (remotion-animation)
✅ Step 3/5: Composition (remotion-composition)
⏳ Step 4/5: Scenes (remotion-component-gen) - 2/4 complete
⬜ Step 5/5: Render Config (remotion-render-config)

Current: Implementing Scene 3 (Demo)
Next: Scene 4 (CTA)

Error Handling

Missing Information

If spec lacks required information:
- Identify gap (e.g., missing spring config)
- Use sensible defaults where possible
- Document assumption in output
- Flag for review by user

Skill Failures

If a delegated skill fails:
- Log error with context
- Attempt recovery if possible
- Skip to next step if non-blocking
- Report issue in final summary

Incomplete Specs

If spec is incomplete:
- Parse what's available
- Generate with TODO markers
- List missing requirements
- Suggest spec improvements

Validation Checklist

Before marking translation complete:

• [ ] All scenes from spec have components
• [ ] Animation configs match spec parameters
• [ ] Scene timing adds up to total duration
• [ ] Color palette extracted and applied
• [ ] Asset list generated
• [ ] Render config targets correct platform
• [ ] No TODO markers in critical sections

Best Practices

1. Parse thoroughly — Extract all details from spec
2. Delegate appropriately — Use right skill for each task
3. Maintain context — Pass relevant info between skills
4. Validate outputs — Check each skill's result
5. Document clearly — Explain what was done
6. Track progress — Show pipeline status
7. Handle errors — Gracefully manage failures

Integration with Other Skills

This skill orchestrates the pipeline:

remotion-spec-translator (this skill - ORCHESTRATOR)
    ↓ coordinates
remotion-scaffold → remotion-animation → remotion-composition → remotion-component-gen → remotion-render-config

Works with:
- /motion-designer — Consumes VIDEO_SPEC.md from this skill
- /remotion-scaffold — Delegates scaffolding
- /remotion-animation — Delegates animation config
- /remotion-composition — Delegates composition structure
- /remotion-component-gen — Delegates scene implementation (per scene)
- /remotion-render-config — Delegates render settings

Triggers:
- "Translate spec to code"
- "Implement video spec"
- "Generate Remotion from spec"
- "Build Remotion project from design"

This skill ensures motion design specs translate systematically into complete, working Remotion projects through intelligent orchestration and delegation.
