Scroll-driven video, explained by doing it (Skill and Prompt included)

Everyone keeps posting those scroll controlled video websites with the caption "can your AI do this? ;)"

So I actually tried it. Whole thing, start to finish. On your behalf.

Result is linked below, and it explains itself while you scroll it. The video is not playing. Your scroll IS the playhead. Scroll back up and it rewinds.

Here is what I learned:
The coding is honestly the easy part.

And the thing nobody tells you .. most of these sites stutter, and everyone blames the javascript.

It's not the javascript. It's the video file.

A normal mp4 only stores a full keyframe every 2 seconds or so, so when you scrub in between, the decoder has to rebuild that frame from scratch. That rebuild IS the jank.

Re encode it so every single frame is a keyframe and it goes buttery instantly.

That's the whole secret. One ffmpeg flag.

But here's what actually eats the time..

  1. Picking footage where a single cut doesn't ruin the illusion.
  2. Deciding that THIS line of text should land exactly when the ink floods the frame.
  3. Grading it so white text stays readable when the shot blows out bright. Knowing how much scroll to give people so they can actually read before the next beat.

That's taste. And in real projects it's usually 3 people going back and forth (dev + the video/art person + whoever owns the brand) before it feels right.

Models can still struggle to tell you if the beat LANDS. Or care that the copy hits on the right frame. Or understand the video at all like humans do now.

So .. can AI do this? The code, yes, easily. The art direction is still yours, and the video production (A FITTING video for this use case)

Link in the comments if you want to scroll it yourself (works on mobile too).

I also put the full PROMPT + a free SKILL in there, so you can rebuild the whole thing yourself.

Do you actually like these video scroll sites, or are they just cool to look at once and then never again?

One thing for certain, this is a way to do high effort work which doesn't look like AI slop and makes you stand out from the crowd (for now)

#webdevelopment #guide

You can experience it and download the skill for free (prompt without skill is also available if you want to build your own skill based on it to your liking customized to you .. You can also download my skill and modify it.)

https://akoum.me/scroll-driven-video

The skill and prompt is at the end of the experience. If you ae a software developer, going through the experience doubles as a guide as well so u understand how its done.

I hope that was valuable to you. Its one way you can build websites where you can stand out and not look like AI Slop etc

Singularity - Humanity's last invention

Watching this now makes me realize and think, are we building a God that can make a mistake?

It is also crazy that this was made 9 years ago even before Chatgpt was a thing. He's brilliant.

Since i watched it 9 years ago, i am following up on the news.

Note: i set this flair because this video is funny.

Hey guys!

Disclaimer: This is my own music. I just wanted to ask if it can be considered as "trance" music.

I have always struggled with genres because of my ADHD, but for a long time i have been again listening to trance music and i wanted to try to do something energetic ..

thank you for your time!

Cheers,

Gemini CLI reads Claude Code skills now (~/.gemini/skills/ or the ~/.agents/skills/ alias). Grabbed the 6 free ones Fable 5 wrote before its window closes, all blind-tested.

Per Google's own Gemini CLI docs, skills follow the Agent Skills open standard and get found in ~/.gemini/skills/ or the shared ~/.agents/skills/ alias. Run /skills list and it shows what it picked up.

So the thing happening on the Claude side ports right over. Fable 5 goes metered after July 7, and people had it write down its working habits as skills for cheaper models. The set I kept is the only one I found with real receipts. 6 skills, blind graded with and without on Opus 4.8 (12-0-2 across 14 gradings), and the maker left the failed first versions in instead of deleting them.

it is interesting to see how other non claude models perforrm with fable 5 rigor i think ..

The Fable 5 window is almost over. Worth keeping from it: 6 free blind-tested skills, and the method for making any smarter model write skills for your daily one.

Meter started today. If you saw the "have Fable 5 write your skills" thread and never got to it, you didn't really miss out.

The skills someone had Fable write are still free: https://www.iwoszapar.com/tools/rigor-pack Blind-tested on Opus 4.8, 12-0-2, with the two failed first versions published next to the wins, which is what made me trust the number.

Reading the write-up, the method is the real takeaway, because none of this was about Fable specifically. Every model you rent gets repriced or deprecated or capped eventually. The move works every time. Whenever you get short-term access to something smarter than your daily driver, a trial or a pro tier or the next window, have it write its discipline down as skills. Pick a habit gap, make it write the SKILL.md about its own behavior, blind-test with and without, keep the failures.

And since SKILL.md is an open standard now, whatever you pull out runs in Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI. The model you rent goes away. The files don't.

Found 6 free Fable 5 made Claude Code skills for Opus 4.8. Sharing in case useful

not mine .. these are made by Iwo Szapar (independent, not affiliated with Anthropic)

and released free. Came across them and thought they were worth sharing here.

They're 6 Claude Code skills that nudge Claude's behavior in Opus 4.8

I did not have time to test them but what caught my attention is the tests he did .. can someone verify? I think if they are well built then maybe we can utilize them for free when fable 5 is gone ..

thoughts?

BTW i expect it to work well with codex too because its essentially a skill file.. so the same impact it had on opus 4.5 should also be everywhere across codex, gemini, or even opencode and any harness.. can work on cursor and windsurf too ... Ok i am excited

GitHub - muhamadjawdatsalemalakoum/kith: Serverless, end-to-end-encrypted, no-account sync for your own devices

A single desktop app (Windows · macOS · Linux) with:

  • 🧠 Memory  notes and facts that sync across every linked device.
  • 🔖 Tabs  save links/pages and have them everywhere.
  • 📁 Files  send files straight to your own devices: end-to-end encrypted, no size limit, no cloud, with live progress and a direct-vs-relayed badge.
  • 🌐 Spaces  run several independent, end-to-end-encrypted worlds at once: a Personal space for yourself, or a Team space with per-device roles (Admin / Writer / Reader) for a trusted circle. Each space has its own keys, members, and audit log; export any space to an encrypted file for backup or to move it.
  • 🔗 Devices  link another computer with a one-time code (SPAKE2). No account.
  • 🤖 Agents  point Claude Desktop / Cursor at Kith over MCP; your AI can use your memory, tabs, and files locally — bound to the active space only, so a prompt-injected agent can't reach another space.

[Rust] Dropwire - peer-to-peer encrypted file transfer, no account, resumable (MAC AND WINDOWS! finally and linux)

Dropwire sends files straight from one device to another. No account, no upload to someone else's server. It tries a direct P2P connection first, and if that fails it falls back to an encrypted relay that only forwards bytes it cannot read.

What it does:

- End-to-end encrypted transfers.

- Resumable, so a dropped connection picks up where it left off (there are byte-perfect resume tests in the suite).

- Preview before you accept, and selective download so you can grab only some of the files.

- Pairing by a one-time code or QR.

- Windows, macOS, and Linux.

How it is built: a Rust core on the iroh 1.0 stack with a Tauri v2 shell. The relay and DNS pieces are self-hostable if you do not want to depend on the defaults. Licensed MIT OR Apache-2.0.

Honest status: this is alpha. The installers are not code-signed yet, so Windows and macOS will show an unknown-publisher warning. I built it with a lot of help from AI coding assistants, and I make the architecture and design calls myself. There is a Rust test suite covering the relay path and resume.

Repo: https://github.com/muhamadjawdatsalemalakoum/dropwire

Site: https://muhamadjawdatsalemalakoum.github.io/dropwire/

Feedback on transfer reliability and the pairing flow is what would help most right now.

Dropwire: a no-account, end-to-end encrypted P2P file transfer app built on iroh 1.0 (Rust core, Tauri shell)

https://preview.redd.it/01j4bctvdx7h1.png?width=1983&format=png&auto=webp&s=2488c837879c1c280a06b65ce579061ade4bf98b

I've been building Dropwire and wanted to share it here since the interesting parts are mostly Rust.

It sends files directly from one device to another with no account and nothing uploaded to a third party. Direct P2P where possible, with a fallback to an encrypted relay that can't read the bytes. Transfers are end-to-end encrypted and resumable, the receiver previews file names and sizes and can pick what to pull before accepting, and pairing is a one-time code or QR.

The Rust side: the core is Rust on the iroh 1.0 stack (QUIC, hole punching, encrypted relay fallback). I kept iroh and iroh-blobs behind a small internal API so the rest of the app never touches those types directly. The shell is Tauri v2, so the binary stays small and the logic lives in Rust instead of the webview. The preview-before-accept and selective download mostly fell out of iroh-blobs' content-addressed model.

Honest status: it's alpha, it's just me building it, and the installers aren't code signed yet (unknown-publisher warning). Build from source if you'd prefer. Licensed MIT or Apache 2.0.

Repo: https://github.com/muhamadjawdatsalemalakoum/dropwire

Site: https://muhamadjawdatsalemalakoum.github.io/dropwire/

Would value feedback on the iroh integration and anything that looks off in the networking or resume logic.
