Cliphi + Codex

Videos in,
clips out, scripted

Describe the workflow and Codex writes the glue: your videos go in, finished clips come out the other side.

1Hand Codex your Cliphi key

As an environment variable. The developer docs cover the three calls it will make.

2Describe the pipeline you want

For example: "for every new episode, get the five strongest moments and save the previews for review".

3Keep the human step

Rendering is the step that produces real output. Keep a review point before anything is made or posted.

Codex questions

Three calls: submit a video, poll the job until the moments are ready, and render the ones you picked. That is the whole surface. There is no SDK to learn and no webhook infrastructure to stand up before the first clip works.

Yes. The Cliphi developer docs publish a machine-readable API description, so you can point Codex at it instead of describing the endpoints yourself. It reads the shapes and error codes straight from the source rather than guessing them.

Keep a human in the loop at the render step. Detection and previews are safe to automate because they produce nothing you have to live with, but rendering is where real output appears, so that is the point worth a confirmation in any pipeline Codex writes.

The job keeps running on Cliphi whether or not anything is watching it. Codex polls until the moments are ready, and Cliphi emails you as well, so a pipeline that dies halfway through does not lose the work already done.

Let Codex wire up your clipping

Three calls and a review step. Describe the pipeline and Codex writes the rest.
