I cut from a local footage box. I wanted 8–15 candidates from one sentence, not a full-library skim and not an auto-edit.
binquery is a local Python CLI. You index your own folder with ffmpeg + OpenCLIP. query encodes only the sentence and prints a shortlist: path, score, gate, reasons. Limit is 8–15. People still watch.
It is not a browser. It is not on PyPI. Clone, then:
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -e .
Needs ffmpeg / ffprobe on the machine.
Agents can install the instructions as a skill (this does not install the Python package):
npx -y skills add jennifferweslowski-design/binquery
Or copy skills/binquery/ into .agents/skills/binquery or .claude/skills/binquery.
