About taste

taste
Creative-direction layer for music videos
taste is an agent skill from the ECC collection by affaan-m, listed on skills.sh. It is a creative-direction layer for music videos and short-form edits in the angelcore, cloud-trance and hyperpop family. Where most AI video advice covers how to render frames, this skill covers what the frames should look like, in what order, cut to what rhythm, so the result reads as one deliberate piece. It sets a named-genre aesthetic vocabulary, mood, a visual grammar, a production pipeline and a shot plan mapped to the beats of the music. The skill is opinionated by design and calls itself a point of view rather than a menu. The listing says the aesthetic was distilled from a corpus of saved short videos and a survey of about 70 visual genres, and a companion file holds the full catalogue of named genres. A skill is a SKILL.md file of instructions that an AI agent loads when a task calls for it. It is free and open source, and the skills.sh listing shows all three security audits passing.
