Make an explainer video with your AI agent
Tell your agent the problem, three steps and the result. An explainer skill turns that into a warm, illustrated film with a picture for every step, then renders a 1080p MP4 you can post or embed.

How it works
Install, describe, get the MP4
The commands below are Pixel Quest Promo's, which is free. Every skill on this page installs the same way.
- Step 1
Install the skill
Paste the install prompt into Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, or run the one-line command. The skill lands as a SKILL.md folder your agent reads.
curl -fsSL https://lookbk.dev/cli.js | node - add pixel-quest-promo - Step 2
Describe the video
Say what it is for, the words it should show and where it will be posted. Point the agent at your site, a CSV or a transcript when the skill uses one.
Make a 20-second Pixel Quest promo for our side project launch with the line "LEVEL UP your notes". - Step 3
Get the MP4
The agent writes a storyboard, checks every frame for cut-off text and renders on your machine. You get an MP4 and the editable source.

Compare
A skill, a video model or a studio
What changes when the video is built by code your agent runs, rather than generated or commissioned.
| What you compare | Prompting a video model | Hiring a studio | A Lookbk skill |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your real product on screen | Invents an interface that looks close | Yes, after a capture session | Your agent captures your real screens or uses your data |
| Text that reads correctly | Letters often warp | Yes | Every word is real type, checked before the render |
| Change one line later | Generate again and hope | A revision round | Edit the line and render again in minutes |
| Cost | Credits for every try | Thousands per film | Free skills to start, Pro for the whole catalog |
FAQ
Questions
Still stuck? The guides cover installing, agents and licensing in more detail.
Read the guidesWhat is an explainer video?
A short film that explains one idea, product or process, usually in under two minutes, with pictures for each step instead of a talking head.
What do I need to give the agent?
The problem, three steps, the result and a call to action. A few words each is enough; the skill sets the pace.
Is the art generated by AI?
No. The paper hills, cards and pictures are drawn by the skill’s own code and laid out from your words, so the same brief gives the same film.
How long is it?
Paper-Cut Explainer renders about 40 seconds at 1080p. Data Story: Bars makes a 12-second chart you can cut in.
Can I add a voice-over?
Record one and lay it under the MP4 in any editor. The steps are timed evenly, so a narration of about the same length fits.
Which agents can run it?
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents that read SKILL.md folders.
