In plain words
OpenEdit is an AI coding agent designed to edit videos programmatically. It enables developers to automate video editing tasks through code rather than manual editing interfaces. The tool is particularly useful for those building video processing workflows or applications that require automated video manipulation. OpenEdit is open source and available on GitHub.

From the sources
OpenEdit is an open-source, agent-driven editing pipeline that ships with VEED's HTML renderer — closed source, but free to use. There is no GUI and no timeline. The pipeline is driven entirely through your coding agent — edit, cut, and reframe footage; layer motion graphics and visual elements; turn slides or websites into video; capture web pages; and pull in any video/image generating service or MCP server when it helps. Source video is optional: stills, slides, generated media, or pure motion graphics are enough when the brief calls for it. Be creative and fluid — try new ideas rather than collapsing every ask onto captions. OpenEdit edits footage. Supply your own source files, or ask…from github.com

Open-source AI video editor2025 · github.com · ▲268Hey HN community! I'm one of the lead devs of this project at fal.ai and we created an open source lightweight video editor powered by the latest media AI models. The main goal was to tackle some challenges when dealing with complex media handling and encoding on the browser. It all started as an internal experiment but as we tackled some of the issues it was clear there could be some value sharing it with the open source community. Some of the key points and tech stack details: - It uses IndexedDb, so all data is local (i.e. no auth, no cloud db) - Multiple AI models for video, image, music…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
