Details
From the project READMEThis skill teaches you how to discover and read current Remotion documentation. If this is not relevant, load Remotion Best Practices instead.
Searching the docs
Use the Algolia search API to find relevant documentation pages:
POST https://plsduol1ca-dsn.algolia.net/1/indexes/*/queries?x-algolia-api-key=3e42dbd4f895fe93ff5cf40d860c4a85&x-algolia-application-id=PLSDUOL1CA
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
{
"requests": [
{
"query": "<your search query>",
"indexName": "remotion",
"params": "attributesToRetrieve=[\"hierarchy.lvl0\",\"hierarchy.lvl1\",\"hierarchy.lvl2\",\"url\"]&hitsPerPage=10"
}
]
}
Each hit contains a url field pointing to the documentation page.
Fetching a page as Markdown
Append .md to any Remotion docs URL to retrieve its Markdown source (saves tokens):
https://www.remotion.dev/docs/use-video-config.md
https://www.remotion.dev/docs/sequence.md
https://www.remotion.dev/docs/lambda/rendermediaonlambda.md
Workflow
- Search Algolia for the concept or API you need.
- Pick the most relevant URL(s) from the results.
- Fetch each URL with the
.mdsuffix. - Implement using the current documentation rather than memorized API knowledge.
