Opus 5.5 one-shot edits a UGC ad from a footage folder
The author pointed Opus 5.5 at a footage folder with a brief and got a complete UGC ad edit in one shot, calling it the arrival of agentic editing.

I cannot believe this. This was a one-shot edit from Opus 5.5 of a UGC ad by pointing it at the footage folder and giving it the brief. Wow. Agentic editing is here.
Some more context here: - Opus 5.5 medium - Not done through davinci or browser control, just in claude code - No context added besides the prompt attached below - No feedback or editing specific skills applied - The brief I gave it was not a full script, so it picked the footage from the folder itself - Cost way less in tokens than I thought it would, but it did take 20 minutes to run
