AI Agent Skill
The JsonCut Agent Skill is a curated set of markdown files that teach AI coding agents how to use the JsonCut API for image and video generation. It works with any agent that supports skill/instruction files.
Supported Agents
| Agent | Setup |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | Add to .claude/settings.json or reference CLAUDE.md |
| OpenAI Codex | Reference AGENTS.md as project instruction |
| OpenClaw / Custom | Point agent at AGENTS.md as entry point |
What's Included
The skill provides structured documentation that agents can reference to build correct API requests:
- API Reference — Authentication, endpoints, job polling, error handling, and token costs
- Image Generation — All 6 layer types (image, text, rectangle, circle, gradient, html), positioning, and effects
- Video Generation — 16+ layer types, 65 transitions, clips, audio, subtitles, and globalLayers
- HTML Layers — HTML/CSS rendering with TailwindCSS, GSAP, Chart.js, D3.js, Lottie, and more
- Ready-to-use Examples — Complete image and video configurations with cURL, Python, and Node.js
Quick Setup
Claude Code
Add the skill as a custom instruction source:
{
"permissions": {},
"customInstructions": "Read @jsoncut-skill/AGENTS.md for JsonCut API usage."
}
Codex / Other Agents
Point your agent to the AGENTS.md file in the repository. It serves as the main entry point and links to all detailed documentation.
How It Works
The agent reads the structured markdown files to understand:
- How to authenticate with the JsonCut API (
x-api-keyheader) - How to build image and video configurations as JSON
- How to create jobs, poll for completion, and retrieve results
- What layer types, properties, and transitions are available
- Token costs and rate limits
This enables AI agents to generate correct API calls without trial and error.
