# Vox Director (collage ads) — workflow skill for ads & UGC

> **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`.

One topic or product photo to a Vox-style paper-collage explainer or ad with voiceover, music and captions.

## What it does

An agent skill that runs on the Atlas Cloud API plus local ffmpeg. It writes a beat map (you approve), renders a style bake-off (you pick), makes one collage keyframe per beat with Nano Banana 2, animates each with Gemini Omni Flash (Kling O3 Pro for real people or brands), adds xAI TTS narration and MiniMax music, then ducks, captions and assembles final.mp4. Besides topic-only B-roll it can restyle your own talking-head video (A-roll) or build every beat around one product photo (C-roll), which is how the viral collage ad format is made.

## Use when

- make a Vox-style collage ad for my product
- turn my talking-head ad into the paper-collage look
- make a 30-60 second explainer ad from one line

## Not for

- UGC that should look phone-shot
- people without an Atlas Cloud account

## Install

- Claude Code: `git clone https://github.com/Alisa0808/vox-director.git ~/.claude/skills/vox-director`
- Codex: `npx skills add Alisa0808/vox-director -a codex`
- Any agent, with the vargai CLI: `vargai install vox-director-collage-ads`

**Models it drives:** Nano Banana 2, Gemini Omni Flash, Kling O3 Pro, Seedance 2.0, xAI TTS, MiniMax Music
