Remotion builds the video as code, with titles and captions, and FFmpeg trims and converts the recordings. Keep the raw clips in the project folder so both spells can reach them.

Can't be appraised: Proving Grounds can't equip orbs (MCP servers).

After the battle

  • Claude Code took 19 turns to clear four waves.
  • Context ran low once, so the agent compacted it.
  • No Scout or Ship spell, so those waves ran on basic attacks.
  • No Test spell, so a regression slipped back in.
  • Summons took 0 damage in their own context and brought back 1 report.

Copy this loadout

Prompt for Claude Code

Paste this into Claude Code. It installs each spell, leaves API keys and sign-ins to you, and ends with the command that restarts it with this weapon and charge.

Set up these tools for me in Claude Code.
Loadout: https://vibe-rpg-simulator.vercel.app/loadouts/product-video-cut/

1. Remotion Best Practices
   Source: https://github.com/remotion-dev/skills
   Run:
     npx skills add remotion-dev/skills

2. FFmpeg MCP Lite
   Source: https://github.com/kevinwatt/ffmpeg-mcp-lite
   Run:
     claude mcp add ffmpeg uvx ffmpeg-mcp-lite

How to do it:
- Skip anything that is already installed. Run the rest in order and check that each step worked.
- Never ask me to paste an API key or token into this chat. When a command needs one, such as YOUR_API_KEY, give me the full command to run in my own terminal.
- Ask me for any other value you can't work out, such as a project path.
- If a command asks a question or needs a browser sign-in or an open app, tell me what to do and wait.
- If a command fails, follow the install steps in the tool's source for Claude Code instead. Show me any command that is not on this list before you run it, and install nothing else.

When you're done, tell me what is ready and what still needs me. New tools load in a new session, so finish by telling me to restart Claude Code with Claude Sonnet 5.5 and reasoning effort high:
claude --model sonnet --effort high

Terminal commands

Or paste these lines into a terminal. The first part installs every spell for Claude Code; the last line starts it with the same weapon and charge. Lines starting with # are notes or commands you type inside the agent.
