xiaxia is an agent skill project by luanyi824-hash on GitHub: Xiaxia: turns an approved script into a director's storyboard with duration budgets, camera positions and focal lengths, real light sources, blocking and action causality, compilable into Seedance 2.5 tasks. It covers storyboard and prompts, with prompts for Seedance / Jimeng, and its README says it works with Codex. 14 stars, last updated 2026-09-08, no license declared.

Editor's notes
Put the whole xiaxia folder into Codex's skills directory and call $xiaxia. It works only from a confirmed script, first locking dialogue, left- or right-hand use and prop ownership, then splitting the content into generation groups of 4 to 30 seconds based on real performance time; a single head turn, for example, usually gets 1 to 2.5 seconds. Delivery starts directly with the generation groups without showing the storyboard bible, and each group specifies no BGM and no subtitles. The bundled validate_storyboard.py checks durations, timecodes and numbering, and SKILL.md has dedicated rules for 21:9 widescreen composition.

Xiaxia Skill. Used by default for director's storyboards in Chinese film, animation, short drama and AI video, turning a confirmed script into generation groups complete in composition, lighting, performance, action causality and Seedance 2.5 execution. Use it whenever the user asks for storyboards, shot scripts, 21:9 composition, camera position and focal length, character blocking, action continuity or video prompts, even if Xiaxia is not named; unless the user explicitly asks, do not rewrite the plot, dialogue or order of events.
