A local workspace for short-form video and self-media creators, Codex Storyboard integrates with Codex to streamline project creation, asset generation (images/video), and automatic backfilling into storyboards. It offers a unified workflow from script to final media, enhancing production efficiency.

How It Works

As a Codex plugin, it launches a local, web-based storyboard workbench. It uses Codex's MCP to automate project setup, shot management, and asset generation (Image Generation, HyperFrames, Remotion), automatically backfilling media. The system prioritizes local data and assets, with optional DESIGN.md files enforcing project-wide visual consistency.

Maintenance & Community

The README focuses on technical implementation and usage, lacking specific details on maintainers, community channels (e.g., Discord, Slack), or project roadmaps.

Licensing & Compatibility

Released under the permissive MIT License, allowing broad compatibility, including commercial use and integration within closed-source projects, with minimal restrictions.

Limitations & Caveats

Functionality depends on a correctly configured local Codex installation and available MCP tools (e.g., create_storyboard_project). Generation service usability (Image Generation, HyperFrames, Remotion) relies on their prior enablement within Codex. Uploaded media files are capped at 100MB.
