Authorization notice. Hypit is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.
Remote script. The install step runs a remotely hosted Skill, so confirm the source before installing it globally with the -g flag.
Who it is forA creator who wants a short ranking or comparison video but has no reference clip to start from.
The problemBuilding a ranking video by hand means assembling captions, visuals and timing for each entry.
The outcomeA re-runnable video composition built from a text description, with captions and effects tied to the words.
What you need first
- A coding agent that Hypit supports, such as Claude Code or Codex
- Node.js with npx available (inferred, since the install step uses npx)
- A reference video file, only if you want to clone an existing video
- Accounts and API keys for any generation model you choose; Hypit itself is free, but model services bill separately
Steps
- Run
npx skills add hypit-ai/hypit -gto install the Hypit Skill. - Start a coding agent session in an empty project directory.
- Run
/hypit Make a ranking video that ranks <topic> into tiers.(inferred, check the README) - Answer any credential requests the agent raises for the model services you choose.
- Check the finished composition and ask the agent to change the ranking order or wording.
Prompt for your agent
Using the hypit-ai/hypit repo, write a ranking video workflow from scratch that ranks <topic> into S, A, B and C tiers, and output an editable composition. Verify that each tier label and caption appears in the final render.
Caveat. The README says generation models are optional, but any B-roll or footage the agent generates will use your chosen service and its charges.
