Make a video in the coding agent you already use.

Instavar gives Codex and Claude Code a public template contract, examples, and a reliable local render workflow. Start without an account, API key, or hosted render bill.

The Codex link opens a prepared prompt. You still choose whether to submit it and whether to render.

One brief becomes a file you can inspect.

  1. 01

    Describe the job

    Give the agent the audience, goal, source media, and next action.

  2. 02

    Review the structure

    The agent creates a VideoSpec, validates it, and previews representative frames.

  3. 03

    Render locally

    Remotion produces the MP4 on your machine and reports the exact output path.

Connect once, then ask for the video.

The repository includes matching Agent Skills for both clients. Claude Code can also discover the project connector from .mcp.json.

Start with the communication job, not a blank timeline.

  • Question and answer ad

    Turn one useful question into a direct short.

  • Proof walkthrough

    Pace equations and worked reasoning scene by scene.

  • Announcement brief

    Give a launch or update one clear next action.

  • Social remix

    Reframe an existing clip with a stronger opening.

  • Data and finance brief

    Move from comparison to evidence to recommendation.

Keep it local, or let Instavar carry more of the work.

The public MCP is read-only. Your brief and local assets stay in your agent conversation and workspace. Add an Instavar API key only when you want managed rendering, storage, review, publishing, and metrics.
