Clipper

Turn a long video into ready-to-post vertical clips just by chatting with your Hermes agent.

  • Runs on your own machine, next to Hermes
  • Local transcription — no per-minute API bill
  • Face-aware 9:16 crop and styled captions

What happens when you ask

  1. Ask

    Tell Hermes what you want: the video, how many clips, and the vibe.

  2. Transcribe

    Clipper downloads the video and transcribes it locally with word-level timing.

  3. Pick moments

    It scores the transcript and picks the strongest standalone moments.

  4. Cut & caption

    Each moment is cropped to 9:16 around the speaker and captioned.

  5. Deliver

    Hermes reports back with the finished MP4s, SRT files and titles.

Install it on your agent

  1. Install Clipper on the same machine that runs your Hermes agent.
  2. Add Clipper's MCP server to your Hermes config (~/.hermes/config.yaml).
  3. Restart Hermes. It can now see and call Clipper's tools.

then ask Hermes Agent: “Find the 3 best moments in <video link> and export them as captioned vertical clips.”
