Install the Hypit skill for your coding agent

One command, no account required. This page covers what gets installed, what your agent gains, and how to update or remove it.

The command

Run npx skills add hypit-ai/hypit -g in a terminal. It fetches the skill from the public repository and registers it so your agent can discover it.

What a skill actually is

A skill is a folder of instructions and assets your agent loads when the task matches. Installing Hypit gives the agent the vocabulary of the workflow — references, takes, selections, tracks, stylesheets — instead of inventing one.

No account, no key, no upload

The skill itself is free and open source. Nothing is uploaded when you install it. An API key is only needed if you choose to route generation through the managed gateway; otherwise your agent uses whatever provider keys you already have.

Step by step

  1. 1. Check Node.js

    Run node --version. Node 20 or newer is required; npx ships with npm.

  2. 2. Install globally

    npx skills add hypit-ai/hypit -g. Without -g the skill installs into the current project only.

  3. 3. Verify

    Ask your agent to list available skills, or open the Hypit skill folder under your skills directory. Seeing the skill listed means the next step — pointing it at a video — will work.

  4. 4. Update or remove

    Re-run the same add command to update, or delete the skill folder to remove it. Nothing else is left behind.

After this

With the skill installed, start from a reference video: that is the input the workflow is designed around.

FAQ

Which agents support skills?

Any agent that reads the skills directory convention — Claude Code, Codex and compatible tools. The skill is plain files, so it also works when pointed at manually.

Does installing use my credits?

No. Installing is free and local; credits only apply to generation you run through the managed API.

Do I need a Hypit account to install?

No account and no key are required to install or to run the workflow with your own providers.
