Descript agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

3 ready-made playbooks that teach an AI agent how to do real Descript work: which tools to call, what to check first, and when to stop and ask you.

Download RevampKey, free I have it: connect Descript

Connect Descript once and all 3 skills install themselves and stay up to date. Mac, Windows and Linux.

All 3 Descript skills

Each skill is one job. You ask in plain words and the agent loads the skill that matches, then follows its steps.

Using the Descript connector in Claude

Works out which Descript Drive is connected, picks the right Descript tool, and asks before importing media, sending Underlord edits or cancelling jobs.

Use it when

You just connected Descript and want to know what to ask for
You asked for a Descript import or edit and want it checked before it runs
You are not sure which Descript account or project a request will touch

Tools it uses

import_media
prompt_project_agent
list_jobs
get_job
cancel_job

Example

Import the interview from my desktop into the Podcasts folder and tell me what it will cost first.

Your connected Descript Drive is the one you signed in with, so I'll use that. Importing a 42-minute interview would use roughly 42 media minutes and land in Podcasts as a new file. Reply yes and I'll start the import, then check its status.

Asks before writing3 Descript tools

Check and clean up Descript jobs with AI

Lists the background jobs running in your Descript account, checks which ones are progressing or stuck, and proposes cancellations. It asks before cancelling anything.

Use it when

An import or edit has been processing for a long time
You want to see what Descript is still working on before adding more
You have duplicate or stalled jobs using up minutes

Tools it uses

list_jobs
get_job
cancel_job

Example

What's still processing in my Descript account? Anything stuck, cancel it.

You have 7 jobs on your Descript Drive: 4 are progressing normally, 2 are queued, and 1 failed with a file-format error. One import has shown no progress for about 40 minutes across two checks, so it looks stuck. I haven't cancelled anything. Should I cancel that stuck import and leave the other 6 running?

Import media into Descript and prepare it for editing

Imports a local or existing media file into the right Descript folder, follows the import job to completion, and confirms transcription before you start editing. It asks before every import because imports use media minutes.

Use it when

You have a recording on your computer and want it in a specific Descript folder
You need a podcast episode imported and transcribed before editing
An import looks stuck and you want to know whether it finished

Tools it uses

import_media
get_job

Example

Import my interview recording from the desktop into my Podcasts folder and transcribe it.

Here is what I'll do: import interview_ep12.mp4 into the Podcasts folder on your connected Drive with transcription on. That uses media minutes, so please confirm. Once you say yes, I'll track the job until it completes and tell you when the transcript is ready.

How Descript skills work

Connect Descript
The Descript MCP server gives the agent its tools.
Ask in plain words
“What's still processing in my Descript account? Anything stuck, cancel it.” Each SKILL.md says when it applies, so only the one that fits is loaded.
Approve any change
The agent calls the tools in order, checks its work, and shows you any change before it makes it.

How to install Descript skills

In RevampKey the skills install themselves when you connect Descript. In other tools each skill is one folder with a SKILL.md file, and you also need the Descript MCP server connected there.

Descript skills FAQ

What is a Descript agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Descript skill describes one job, which Descript tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

Do the Descript skills change anything on their own?

1 of the 3 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Descript.

Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Descript; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

Do I need the Descript MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Descript MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Descript MCP setup guide covers every client.
