- Replicate: paste a TikTok or Douyin link and rebuild the winning structure with your product.
- Imagery: create A+ detail images, try-on shots, scene images and white-background visuals.

What is in the GitHub repo?
The repository contains the README, Chinese docs, a docs directory and the skill manifest. It explains that Clipcat Skill is essentially the clipcat CLI plus SKILL.md: the agent reads the manifest, runs commands and parses JSON output.
How paid jobs avoid mistakes
For credit-consuming video jobs, the recommended workflow is to quote first: model, duration, resolution, full prompt and expected credits are shown before confirmation. That makes it safer for teams that need predictable spending.
