FireRed-OpenStoryline
An AI-powered conversational video editing agent that transforms natural language prompts into complete video cuts.
An open agent framework that automates script generation, clip assembly, ASR cuts, and beat-matched audio.
FireRed-OpenStoryline is an open-source AI video editing agent that turns natural language instructions into edited video timelines. It helps video creators and developers automate scriptwriting, rough cuts, BGM selection, and visual style matching. You can run it locally or trigger its workflow through agents like Claude Code and OpenClaw.
What it is
The system searches and downloads media, segments clips based on topic, and writes context-aware narration with voiceover matching. It performs ASR-based rough cuts to remove speech disfluencies, aligns music beats automatically, and accepts conversational edits for visual adjustments. You can also export and archive complete editing workflows as reusable Style Skills.
Who it's for
It suits video editors, content creators, and developers who want to automate repetitive editing tasks like speech cleanup or templated social clips via AI agents. It is not designed for creators needing traditional, frame-by-frame timeline controls without coding or terminal setup. Non-technical users looking for an instant desktop app may find the model setup complex.
Key features

Our honest verdict
What's great
- Integrates directly with Claude Code and OpenClaw via built-in agent skill hooks.
- Automates speech cleanup by stripping filler words and disfluencies using ASR.
- Saves custom editing workflows into reusable Style Skills for batch production.
- Supports natural language color, font, and clip adjustments in conversational edits.
Where it falls short
- Requires manually downloading large model and resource zip files before initial execution.
- Relies on external AIGC services for AI transitions, which introduce per-use generation costs.
- Default open-source asset library requires extra configuration to access commercial-quality fonts and audio.
- Lacks a standalone graphical desktop installer and depends on command-line setup.

FAQ
Can I use FireRed-OpenStoryline without terminal commands?
Currently, setup and execution require terminal commands, Conda environment setup, and script execution, though compatible agents like OpenClaw can manage execution once installed.
Are AI transition effects included locally?
AI transition generation relies on external AIGC video generation API services, which can incur API usage costs and variable results.
How do Style Skills work in this project?
Style Skills let you archive a complete sequence of script style, font choice, music selection, and cutting rules to apply across new footage batches.
