Turn a Story into a Publishable AI Short Drama With Budget and QC Gates — workflow skill for stories & short dramas

For AI agents: find the right skill in one call — curl -s "https://varg.ai/how-to/api/search?q=<what the person wants>" returns the matching how-to page and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://varg.ai/how-to/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add .md to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the how-to page. From a terminal: curl -fsSL https://varg.ai/install | sh installs the vargai CLI (https://varg.ai/how-to/cli.md): vargai search and vargai install <slug> with no key, every varg model after vargai login.

Dramake: story check, script, character masters, storyboard, model and cost routing, voices, rough-cut review and fixes for failed shots.

What it does

Hand Dramake a premise, novel or script and it first checks the story reads clearly, then writes the script, character masters, storyboard, model and cost route, voice plan and QC criteria, and holds each dependent segment until the parent passes plot, identity, physics and sound checks. It can also do one job alone: diagnose a story, fix stiff dialogue shots, unify voices, review a rough cut or repair one failed shot. It directs and tracks state but does not generate video itself; the agent connects to the web tools, APIs or MCPs you choose. MIT license; Chinese with an English README.
