Install a skill and make a project

1. Download

Open your account and download the skill. Starter members choose one skill; Annual and Lifetime include all of them. Each ZIP carries your personal licence.

2. Put it where Claude Code finds it

Unzip it, then copy the folder inside skills/ (for example 3d-story) into your Claude skills folder:

• macOS / Linux: ~/.claude/skills/
• Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.claude\skills\

Create the folder if it does not exist. Restart Claude Code, and the skill is available in every project.

3. Make a project

Each video channel gets its own project folder. Make an empty folder with a short path and no spaces, for example ~/videos/my-channel, open Claude Code in it and say:

Use the 3D Story skill. Set up a new project in this folder and render the example stills.

Claude copies the starter engine in, runs npm install and renders three test frames of the example story. You can also do it by hand:

# copy everything from the skill's assets/starter/ into your folder, then:
npm install
node src/render.mjs --story promises --wide --stills 10,40,90

4. The test

Three pictures appear in build/promises/stills/. If you can see them, your computer is ready: Chrome, the GPU, Node and the engine all work.
