Creative Ops Copilot
What to do
- Ask for (or infer) the input brief:
- Paste text directly, or
- Provide a file path to a brief/email/thread export.
- Produce these outputs (always):
docs/creative-ops/plan.md(client-ready)docs/creative-ops/estimate.json(structured line items)docs/creative-ops/invoice-draft.json(ready for API import later)
- If Chris wants it, also:
- Create a project folder skeleton (AE/C4D/Octane-friendly) with a
docs/README.md. - POST the invoice draft to the local invoicing API (only if base URL is configured and Chris says “push it”).
Canonical output structure (plan.md)
- Project summary (one paragraph)
- Goals / Success criteria
- Deliverables (matrix)
- Format, duration, aspect ratios, versions, audio deliverables
- Workflow assumptions
- what’s included, what’s not, number of review rounds
- Open questions (what you still need answered)
- Production plan
- phases + milestones + review windows
- Risks / dependencies
- Estimate
- line items + hours + rate + subtotal + contingency
- Next actions
How to generate reliably
Prefer generating structured data first, then render it:
- Extract entities
- Client name
- Project name
- Deadline/date constraints
- Deliverables list
- Constraints (brand, legal, footage supply, approvals)
- Decide the production approach
- Template-driven vs bespoke
- 2D AE vs 3D C4D vs mixed
- Estimate with motion/VFX realism
- Prepro (briefing, styleframes, boards)
- Production (anim, 3D, comp)
- Audio/music/licensing (if applicable)
- Renders, exports, versioning
- PM/admin buffer
Scripts (recommended)
Use the bundled script to create consistent outputs:
python skills/creative-ops-copilot/scripts/creative_ops_copilot.py --brief "\x3Cpaste brief>" --out .
If the brief is a file:
python skills/creative-ops-copilot/scripts/creative_ops_copilot.py --brief-file "C:\path o\brief.txt" --out .
To also create a project skeleton:
python skills/creative-ops-copilot/scripts/creative_ops_copilot.py --brief "..." --out . --skeleton
To attempt pushing the invoice draft to your local invoicing API (only if configured):
python skills/creative-ops-copilot/scripts/creative_ops_copilot.py --brief "..." --out . --push-invoice
Configuration
Optional config file:
skills/creative-ops-copilot/references/config.example.json
Copy to:
skills/creative-ops-copilot/references/config.json
Then edit:
invoicingApi.baseUrlinvoicingApi.apiKey(if needed)rateCarddefaults
Notes
- Keep outputs concise, clean, and client-ready.
- When anything is missing/ambiguous, surface it under Open questions instead of guessing.
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install creative-ops-copilot - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/creative-ops-copilot - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
