Brief

@DataChaz shows a terminal-based workflow (WayinVideo AI Clipping Skill through OpenClaw) that auto-generates vertical 9:16 MP4 shorts from a single long file or YouTube URL. Setup is VS Code + WayinVideo API key + local OpenClaw gateway. The tool returns scored segments with titles, animated captions, and multilingual subtitles, enabling rapid podcast, stream, and YouTube repurposing.

MIND BLOWN 🤯

I just turned my terminal into a full-scale content machine using the @WayinVideo AI Clipping Skill through @OpenClaw.

I fed it one long video, and out came a stack of viral-ready shorts in seconds.

Goodbye hours of editing!

The setup couldn’t be easier:

1 Grab the AI clipping package in VS Code

2 Export your WayinVideo API key

3 Boot up the @OpenClaw gateway locally

That’s it.

Under the hood, WayinVideo does all the heavy lifting.

You give it a YouTube URL or a raw file, and it automatically finds the best moments, turning them into perfectly framed 9:16 MP4s.

It’s insane for pretty much anything:

> Pulling 10+ clips from a single podcast
> Turning long YouTube essays into daily Shorts
> Grabbing instant highlights from streams and interviews

In the demo below, I literally just asked OpenClaw for vertical clips.

WayinVideo sent back highly scored segments, complete with titles, directly in the chat UI.

Zero manual editing.

It even added animated captions and multilingual subtitles 💥↓
