.agents/skills - How to call a skill
Mention the skill by name, or just describe the job and let Kilo Code pick it.
popnow-<skill> - Connect PopNow
Skills are free. To generate images, video or sound, set your PopNow API key in POPNOW_API_KEY. Calls using this key draw from your separate API balance in USD. Each paid generation is quoted first and waits for your approval.
POPNOW_API_KEY
- 1Copy the install prompt
Paste it into Kilo Code. It downloads the skill with your API key and unzips it into the right folder.
- 2Ask for the result
Call the skill and say what you need in plain words: the topic, the audience, the length.
- 3Review and refine
Open the file it made, ask for changes in the chat, and ship when it looks right.

Create a developer launch reel with Kilo Code
Anchor the launch in real tool output
For Kilo Code, a practical creative task is introducing a developer tool through things it actually produces. Developer Tool Launch Reel is a strong candidate when you have a tested prompt, a verified install command and real output examples. AI Chat Demo Video is a related choice when the conversation itself carries the explanation. Device Mockup Launch Video offers another visual framing to inspect when the product is best understood through screens. Decide what the viewer must recognize first: the tool's results, its interaction pattern or the product experience shown in context.
Distinguish personal and shared directory conventions
The Kilo Code record lists ~/.kilo/skills for personal use and .agents/skills for project use. Keep the full popnow-prefixed package beneath the intended scope, with SKILL.md next to the supporting resources. Name it plainly in the request. Cline shares the .agents/skills project location but uses ~/.agents/skills personally. This asymmetry matters when a workflow works in one repository yet appears absent elsewhere. Check whether the package was installed in personal or project scope before changing the skill name or repeatedly downloading another copy.
Prepare the reel as evidence plus a sequence
Bring a concise product description, representative outputs, a working install command and licensed audio if you plan to use an existing track. Developer Tool Launch Reel documents local requirements including Node.js and FFmpeg; verify the installed package's instructions before rendering. Ask Kilo Code for a storyboard that explains why each output is present and how the ending connects to the tested command. Review whether text remains readable during cuts and whether each example is truly from the tool. If evidence is missing, reduce the concept to material you can demonstrate instead of filling the reel with unrelated generated visuals.
Three ways to install
- Ask your agent
Copy a skill's install prompt into your agent. It reads the install guide, downloads the package with your key and unzips it into the right folder.
https://popnow.ai/api/skills/install.md - Use the CLI
popnow skills finds and installs skills from your terminal.
npm install -g @popnow/cli && popnow skills - Over MCP
With the developer MCP connected, ask for a style: find_skills suggests packages and install_skill hands over the playbook and the install commands.
find_skills → install_skill - Generation uses your API key
Skills are free. The images, video, music and voice they make through PopNow are charged in USD to the API balance behind POPNOW_API_KEY, after a quote you approve.
POPNOW_API_KEY
Install guides by agent
Same skills everywhere; only the folder changes.
Frequently asked questions
Which Kilo Code path should I check first?
Check the scope you intended to install: .agents/skills inside the project or ~/.kilo/skills for personal use. The paths use different naming conventions, so an assumption based on another assistant can be misleading. Retain the complete package and verify that SKILL.md is present.
What makes Developer Tool Launch Reel a good fit?
Its documented inputs include a tested prompt and install command, real outputs and audio material. It is therefore a useful candidate when those assets already exist. Inspect the detail page and compare the reel's structure with the product story before selecting it for a launch.
Should I choose a chat demo instead?
Consider AI Chat Demo Video when understanding the interaction is more important than presenting a rapid sequence of outputs. Provide a truthful, approved example conversation. Compare it with Developer Tool Launch Reel so the visual format supports the product explanation rather than obscuring how the tool works.
Why might a launch reel fail during export?
The local rendering environment may lack a required tool or source file. Read the package requirements and check the actual error before revising the narrative. A missing dependency is a separate issue from weak examples, unclear copy or an install command that has not been tested.
