GitHub skill · install in Claude Code
Claude × Higgsfield Seedance 2.0 setup.
Claude Code uses the Playwright MCP to control your browser and automate video generation on Higgsfield. You type a brief like "3 KitKat ads", Claude invokes a specialised Seedance 2.0 skill to engineer a production-quality prompt, then navigates to Higgsfield, fills it in, and hits generate — without you touching anything. Here's the full setup, the 15 skills, the content filter, and the exact CLAUDE.md.

What this does
The workflow is four steps: you type a brief (e.g. "3 KitKat ads"), Claude invokes the right skill and generates prompts, Claude opens Higgsfield via Playwright, then Claude submits each prompt, waits for generation, and moves to the next.
Requirements
- Claude Code installed (CLI or VS Code extension)
- A Higgsfield account — higgsfield.ai
- Node.js + npx (comes with Node)
- Git
Setup
1. Add the Playwright MCP (global — works in every session)
2. Create your project folder
3. Install the 15 Seedance skills
Go to the GitHub repo and follow the install instructions: github.com/beshuaxian/higgsfield-seedance2-jineng.
⚠️ Important: the installer puts skills in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/skills/ but Claude Code reads from ~/.claude/skills/. After running the installer, copy them to the right place:
4. Add .mcp.json to the project folder
Create a file called .mcp.json in your project folder:
5. Add CLAUDE.md to the project folder
Create a file called CLAUDE.md in your project folder — the full contents are at the end of this guide. It loads automatically every session and tells Claude the workflow, skills, content-filter rules, and Playwright instructions.
6. Restart Claude Code
Fully quit and reopen VS Code / Claude Code so the skills and MCP config load.
7. Approve the MCP server
When you open the project in VS Code, you'll see a notification to approve .mcp.json — click Allow.
8. Log into Higgsfield
In a new Claude Code session, run:
A browser window will open. Log in manually. Come back to Claude and say "logged in."
How to use
Open Claude Code in the higgsfield project folder and type:
Claude will invoke the right skill and generate 3 prompts, show them to you before submitting, open Higgsfield via Playwright, submit each prompt one at a time, wait 1 minute between each while checking for the loading spinner, and report when each one is done.
Examples
Using a reference image (image-to-video)
Drop an image into the project folder and mention it, e.g. 3 KitKat ads, use ref.jpg. Claude uploads it to Higgsfield automatically for Image-to-Video mode (better quality than Text-to-Video).

Content filter — banned words
Higgsfield's filter flags these even in innocent motion-design contexts. Claude replaces them automatically, but it's good to know if you're writing prompts manually.
| Never use | Use instead |
|---|---|
| explosion, explodes | radial particle scatter, dynamic reveal |
| burst, bursts | radiates outward, fans out, expands |
| snap, snaps | separates, divides, parts cleanly |
| break, breaks, broken | separates, opens, reveals |
| crack, cracks | opens along the edge, parts at the seam |
| shatter, shards | separates cleanly, dissolves |
| pull-apart, tear, rip | gentle separation, parts along the seam |
| smashes, crashes, slams | transitions into, resolves into |
| impact, collision | transition, shift |
| fire, flame, burning | warm amber glow, luminance |
| destroy, obliterate | dissolve, transform, fade out |
| violent, aggressive | dynamic, energetic, bold |
| naked, bare, exposed | clean, minimal, natural |
Troubleshooting
Playwright MCP not available in VS Code
Make sure .mcp.json exists in the project folder, fully quit VS Code (not just reload the window) and reopen, approve the MCP notification when it appears, and run /mcp in Claude Code to confirm playwright is listed.
Skills not loading
Make sure skills are in ~/.claude/skills/, not ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/skills/:
It should show 01-cinematic, 02-3d-cgi, etc.
NSFW warning on Higgsfield
Claude should catch banned words automatically. If one slips through, check the prompt against the content-filter table above and replace it manually.
Claude writes its own prompts instead of using the skill
Start a fresh session. If it keeps happening, do it in two steps: session 1 runs /07-ecommerce-ad → generate prompts → save to prompts.txt; session 2 says "Submit prompts from prompts.txt to Higgsfield".
Claude navigates to the wrong URL
The correct URL is https://higgsfield.ai/create/video.
