OpenClaw processes highlight reels through batch compilation pipelines. Feed in multiple long-form recordings with timestamp lists and produce polished reels at different lengths for different platforms in one automated session. This approach is ideal for event organizers who need to produce dozens of highlight reels from a multi-track conference.

1Install the CLI
npm install -g toolrouter-mcp
2Call tools directly from OpenClaw

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Video Editor tool:

  1. Provide the source video and timestamp list
  2. OpenClaw extracts and compiles the highlights
  3. Polish: "Add transitions, normalize audio, and add an intro title"
  4. Export the highlight reel in your required format

Example Prompt

Try this with OpenClaw using the Video Editor tool
Create a highlight reel from a 3-hour live stream. Extract the 10 best moments (I'll provide timestamps) and compile them into a 5-minute reel with crossfade transitions.

Tips

  • Process multiple long recordings into highlight reels in a single session
  • Ask OpenClaw to create highlight reels at different lengths for different platforms
  • Include a brief title card at the start identifying the source content
