README

mediasense

Give Claude ears and eyes. Claude can't listen to audio or watch videos on its own; with mediasense it can. Point at a voice message, podcast, recording or meeting, or paste a TikTok, YouTube or Instagram link, in Claude Code or Claude Desktop and ask in plain language. Claude can then transcribe it, summarize it, explain what happens, find the moment something is said, or edit it.

you: what does this voice message say? ~/Downloads/audio-from-maria.opus
you: summarize this https://www.tiktok.com/@someone/video/7350…
you: what does he show at 0:30? and what tool is he talking about?
you: clean up ~/Desktop/podcast.m4a — remove the "um"s and long pauses
you: make short captions for ~/Videos/reel.mp4
you: put intro.mp3 under the first 5 seconds of talk.mp4, ducked

_{Real output for a 17-second TikTok by @elim.doc, shown with the creator's permission. Regenerate the
animation with python docs/make_demo.py.}

mediasense runs on your computer: it downloads the link, transcribes speech in ~99 languages with a timestamp for every word, picks key frames at scene changes, and hands Claude a transcript, a shot list and contact-sheet images. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Setup

Windows – paste in PowerShell:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joaoestella/mediasense/main/install.ps1 | iex

macOS / Linux – paste in a terminal:

curl -LsSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joaoestella/mediasense/main/install.sh | sh

Then quit Claude Desktop completely (tray/menu-bar icon → Quit), open it again and ask "summarize this video: ". The first transcription downloads the speech model (≈ 500 MB).

Prefer to read the script before running it?

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joaoestella/mediasense/main/install.ps1 -OutFile install.ps1
notepad install.ps1
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\install.ps1

(macOS/Linux: curl -LsSfO …/install.sh, read it, then sh install.sh.)

The installer only installs what is missing — Python 3.12 and FFmpeg via winget (Homebrew/apt on macOS/Linux) and pipx via pip — then pipx installs mediasense from this repository and runs mediasense setup. It stops at the first failed step.

Manual setup (no script)

winget install ffmpeg                    # macOS: brew install ffmpeg · Linux: sudo apt install ffmpeg
python -m pip install --user pipx
python -m pipx ensurepath                # then close and reopen the terminal
python -m pipx install "mediasense[all]"
mediasense setup -n                      # preview what setup will change
mediasense setup
mediasense doctor

Use python -m pipx … rather than plain pipx right after installing it: the pipx command only appears on PATH in a new terminal. No Git needed.

As a Claude plugin (skill + server in one)

The repository is also a Claude plugin: installing it adds both the mediasense tools and the skill that tells Claude when to use them. It starts the server with uv, so install uv first (winget install astral-sh.uv · brew install uv · curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh) plus FFmpeg if you don'
