Overview

rea-video splits a video into shots and decides for each whether it was filmed, AI-generated or built in code, using frame cadence, sensor noise, metadata AIGC tags and audio analysis. It outputs a remake plan and a report.html with per-shot evidence, prompts, camera and lighting notes, and an audio breakdown. It is designed to be driven by Claude Code, Codex or a similar agent, and can optionally use Gemini or Doubao for better accuracy.

Who it is for: Video creators and engineers analyzing and remaking videos with coding agents

Strengths

  • Offline tools-only mode needs no paid model; README reports 98–99% accuracy on original files
  • Judges each shot separately as live, AI, 3D or code, then reassembles on the original timeline
  • Exports captions to SRT/ASS and reports BPM, cuts and sound effect placement
  • Remake plan batches shots by target video model limits such as clip length and reference images

Weaknesses

  • Accuracy on re-encoded platform videos drops to 88.6% without a vision model or agent review
  • Does not render video; automatic regeneration needs the separate capsule-cinema project
  • Docs are in Chinese only for now
  • Built around an agent workflow; no standalone UI or hosted demo

What it needs

  • Needs ffmpeg, Python 3.10+
  • Models: Gemini, Doubao

Quick answers
