Make the cut.
Keep the proof.

A LITTLE INTENTION.A better cut.

ILLUSTRATIVE COMPOSITION

00:00 / 00:12SYNTHETIC

A synthetic timeline illustration, not a recorded editing session or a rendered deliverable.

Guidance in the cloud.Read-only skills and runbooks.

Production on your machine.Your files, engines, and approval gates.

FROM IDEA TO DELIVERY

One edit. A visible trail.

The workflow leaves artifacts at each step, so you can inspect the decisions—not just watch an agent work.

01 / DIRECT

Define the promise.

Write the goal, audience, sources, constraints, and acceptance checks before touching the timeline.

EDIT.md

02 / SHAPE

Find the story.

Reconcile transcripts, select the useful moments, and anchor visual events to words and beats.

edl.json · BEATS.md

03 / BUILD

Give it rhythm.

Compose motion, type, captions, and sound with reusable patterns and project-local assets.

hf/ · sound/

04 / VERIFY

Check the actual file.

Measure the encode, inspect the cuts, review the soundtrack, and report what has not been tested.

GIVE YOUR AGENT THE RUNBOOK
