OpenMontage GitHub: pipelines and skills on your machine

OpenMontage GitHub is the repository at github.com/calesthio/OpenMontage. Its README, read on 2026-11-03, describes an open-source agentic video system: pipelines, tools, and agent skills, with Remotion or HyperFrames as the render path. Nano AI does not install it for you.

The generator below runs Veo 3.1 Fast for 60 credits a clip. It is not OpenMontage. It does not run their pipelines, Remotion, or agent skills.

What the OpenMontage GitHub repo says

The README header, read on 2026-11-03, calls OpenMontage the first open-source agentic video production system and says 12 production pipelines, 100+ tools, and 700+ agent skill and production-knowledge files. The Pipelines table on that same page names eleven workflows: Animated Explainer, Animation, Avatar Spokesperson, Cinematic, Clip Factory, Documentary Montage, Hybrid, Localization & Dub, Podcast Repurpose, Screen Demo, and Talking Head. A later bullet says 10+ production pipelines. This page leaves those three counts side by side. It also says 100+ production tools, 60+ provider integrations, and 700+ agent skill and production-knowledge files in that later section.

The same README says there is no code orchestrator: the AI coding assistant is the orchestrator. The printed stage order is research -> proposal -> script -> scene_plan -> assets -> edit -> compose. It says OpenMontage picks Remotion or HyperFrames at proposal time and locks that choice as render_runtime. Remotion is described as the default for data-driven explainers. HyperFrames is described as the default for motion-graphics briefs written as HTML and GSAP. The license line at the end of the README is GNU AGPLv3. This site has not cloned the repo or run make setup.

If you wanted a generated clip instead of that pipeline, the form on this page calls Veo 3.1 Fast for 60 credits. Eligible new accounts get 64 credits, which covers one clip and leaves 4. That request does not execute OpenMontage, does not render Remotion, and does not read their agent skills. HyperFrames as a separate renderer is described on /hyperframes-github.

Install OpenMontage from the README

Commands are copied from the project README as read on 2026-11-03. Run them on your computer. Nano AI does not run them. The README also lists optional API keys. Those keys are not copied here.

1
Clone and run make setup
The README's install block. It asks for Python 3.10+, FFmpeg, and Node.js 18+ before this.
```
git clone https://github.com/calesthio/OpenMontage.git
cd OpenMontage
make setup
```

If you have no make

The README's macOS and Linux fallback, printed as one line.

python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate && python -m pip install -r requirements.txt && cd remotion-composer && npm install && cd .. && python -m pip install piper-tts && cp .env.example .env

3
Open the project in a coding assistant
The README says to open the project in Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, or Codex, then describe the video. It points the agent at AGENT_GUIDE.md. This site does not do that step.
4
Run the contract tests they print
The README says these tests need no API keys.
```
make test-contracts
```

What the README is, and what the button is

An agent runs the pipeline

The README says your coding assistant is the orchestrator. There is no code orchestrator in their description. Nano AI does not open that agent.

Remotion and HyperFrames are theirs to run

The README locks render_runtime to Remotion or HyperFrames. This page does not render either. /hyperframes-github is a separate note about HyperFrames.

The counts are printed as printed

The header says 12 production pipelines. The table names eleven workflows. A later bullet says 10+. This page does not pick a single number for them.

The form is Veo 3.1 Fast

A generated clip is 60 credits. It does not run make setup, does not read AGENT_GUIDE.md, and does not spend their provider keys.

OpenMontage and the generator on this page

The OpenMontage column follows the GitHub README as read on 2026-11-03. The Veo column is what Nano AI runs.

	OpenMontage README	Veo 3.1 Fast on Nano AI

How to make a generated clip instead

1
Use this only if you want a generated clip
Stay on Veo 3.1 Fast. The price is 60 credits. This does not run an OpenMontage pipeline.
2
Describe one shot
Pick a prompt below or edit it. Keep it to a place, a light, and a camera move. Do not add a person.
3
Generate
Sign in. Eligible new accounts receive 64 credits, which covers one Veo 3.1 Fast clip. Download the file from your creations.

Prompts for the Veo clip only

These do not start an OpenMontage pipeline. For that repo, use the install steps on your own computer.

Desk lamp
A brass desk lamp turning on over a closed notebook, slow push in, no people, no readable text, no logos.
Greenhouse
Rain on an empty greenhouse roof, ferns below, the camera pans left, no people, no readable text.
Paper boat
A small paper boat on a still pond, overcast light, the camera holds, no people, no readable text, no logos.
Metronome
Macro of a metronome swinging, warm side light, no people, no readable numbers, no logos.

When the README's install will not start

make is not installed: Use the README's one-line fallback. It installs requirements.txt, remotion-composer, and piper-tts, then copies .env.example to .env.
Python, Node, or FFmpeg is older than they ask: The README asks for Python 3.10+, Node.js 18+, and FFmpeg. This page has not checked your machine.
You expected a prompt box that runs their pipeline: The Veo form on this page does not run OpenMontage. It is a different product at 60 credits a clip.

FAQ

OpenMontage GitHub FAQ

Answers from the repository README as read on 2026-11-03, and a separate note about the generator.

Is OpenMontage the video model on this button?

No. The README describes pipelines and agent skills that your coding assistant runs. The button runs Veo 3.1 Fast for 60 credits. It does not run their pipelines, Remotion, or agent skills.

How does the README say to install it?

It prints git clone https://github.com/calesthio/OpenMontage.git, then cd OpenMontage, then make setup. It asks for Python 3.10+, FFmpeg, and Node.js 18+. This page has not executed those commands.

What if make is missing?

The README prints a macOS and Linux fallback that creates a venv, installs requirements.txt, runs npm install in remotion-composer, installs piper-tts, and copies .env.example to .env. The command is in the install section below.

What license is it under?

The README's license line says GNU AGPLv3. Read the LICENSE file in the repository before you ship a product on top of it.

Why do the pipeline counts differ?

The header says 12 production pipelines. The table names eleven workflows. A later bullet says 10+. All three lines were on the README read on 2026-11-03. This page does not merge them.

Is Nano AI affiliated with OpenMontage?

No. Nano AI is not affiliated with OpenMontage. The repository is linked so you can read it. The generator is Veo 3.1 Fast.
