Makes the doodle-animation capability findable instead of hidden.
Routing (OpenMontage-internal):
- AGENT_GUIDE: Style Playbooks gets an ink-sketch row + a 'hand-drawn doodle'
routing note (it's a style + engine on the animation / character-animation
pipelines, NOT a new pipeline).
- animation/idea-director + character-animation/character-design-director point
to the Ink Theater / Ink Puppet skills for hand-drawn character briefs.
Cross-agent slash commands (/ink-art, /animated-drawing) for Claude Code,
Copilot, Cursor, and Codex — thin pointers to the canonical skills so they stay
in sync. /ink-art = create a vector doodle from scratch (Ink Theater + Ink
Puppet mocap); /animated-drawing = animate a SUPPLIED drawing via Meta
AnimatedDrawings (raster). New skills/creative/animated-drawing.md documents the
Path A setup/run/limits. Codex prompts are user-home only — .codex/prompts/README
explains the copy/symlink step.
.claude/commands/*.md (Claude Code)
.github/prompts/*.prompt.md (Copilot)
.cursor/commands/*.md (Cursor)
.codex/prompts/*.md + README (Codex; copy to ~/.codex/prompts)
Introduce a hand-authored, project-local Remotion render path that bypasses
the cut-schema and the stock scene-type registry, for hero/bespoke videos
that must look distinct from one another.
- video_compose: composition_mode="atelier" (or renderer_family="bespoke")
routes to _render_via_atelier, which renders a project-local entry under
remotion-composer/projects/<slug>/ with an optional per-project public_dir
(skips copying the bloated shared public/). No cut-schema, no stock registry.
- skills/meta/bespoke-composition.md: routing skill — art direction
(visual-style) -> motion principles (Disney 12) -> engine mechanics
(remotion-best-practices + stock components read only as a mechanics codex)
-> atelier render. Doctrine: reuse engine knowledge, never creative components.
- AGENT_GUIDE: "Composition Authoring Mode" (templated vs atelier); default
atelier for hero work; scene-type catalog reframed as a mechanics codex.
- animation-runtime-selector + INDEX: authoring-mode-first pointers.
- base_tool.run_command: decode subprocess output as UTF-8/replace (Windows
cp1252 crashed the reader thread on Remotion's Unicode progress output).
- .gitignore: remotion-composer/projects/ (throwaway bespoke compositions).
Separates creative grammar (renderer_family) from technical engine
(render_runtime) so HyperFrames can stand alongside Remotion as a
first-class runtime instead of masquerading as a Remotion sub-case.
Locks runtime choice at proposal stage and enforces it end-to-end: the
schemas require it, video_compose routes by it, the reviewer fails
closed on silent swaps, and a parametrized contract test walks every
pipeline manifest to ensure each planning-stage skill explains the
conversation to the user. Adds hyperframes_compose (scaffold/lint/
validate/render/doctor/add_block), a playbook -> CSS style bridge, and
vendored HyperFrames Layer 3 skills from commit d291358, pinned via
PROVENANCE.md for future re-sync. Final_review now records
render_runtime_used and runtime_swap_detected so compose lies are
catchable after the fact.
Seedance 2.0 is now routed as the top-ranked video generator whenever a
premium gateway is available. Touches the tool layer, scoring engine,
cinematic pipeline, and both skill layers so discovery works from every
entry point.
- tools/video/seedance_video: BETA stability, quality_score=0.95, add
reference_to_video operation plus 9 img + 3 vid + 3 audio ceilings,
fix pre-existing upload_image_fal import
- tools/base_tool: surface optional quality_score / success_rate /
latency fields in get_info so the scorer can read them
- lib/scoring: fix reliability enum-vs-string bug that was pinning every
available tool to 0.0, switch to overlap coefficient so rich best_for
descriptions aren't penalized, add premium-cinematic feature bonus
- pipeline_defs/cinematic + cinematic asset-director: add pixabay_music
and freesound_music, restore pixabay-first music default
- cinematic compose-director: mandatory Remotion preflight at stage entry
- New Layer 3 .agents/skills/seedance-2-0/SKILL.md (8-part prompt
structure, multi-shot, lip-sync, reference-to-video, provider landscape)
- New Layer 2 skills/creative/prompting/seedance-prompting.md
- Update ai-video-gen, video-gen-prompting, AGENT_GUIDE, INDEX to flag
Seedance 2.0 as the preferred premium default and make the skill
discoverable from every routing path
Mirror the official GSAP AI skills (greensock/gsap-skills, MIT) into
.agents/skills/ and add the Layer 2 wiring that makes them discoverable
from a fresh context.
GSAP covers animation needs that Remotion primitives strain at:
per-character text reveals (SplitText), SVG shape morphs (MorphSVG),
curved camera paths (MotionPath), stroke-reveal line drawing (DrawSVG),
layout-to-layout flight (Flip), and custom bezier easings (CustomEase).
Also becomes mandatory day-1 knowledge if we wire in HyperFrames later
(HF uses GSAP timelines as its native animation runtime).
Layer 3 adds (.agents/skills/):
- gsap-core, gsap-timeline, gsap-plugins, gsap-utils
- gsap-react, gsap-performance
- gsap-scrolltrigger, gsap-frameworks (situational)
- gsap/README.md — OpenMontage-specific framing and Remotion-safe usage
Layer 2 wiring (the discovery triggers):
- skills/meta/animation-runtime-selector.md — NEW routing meta-skill.
Decision matrix covering Remotion primitives, GSAP plugins, framer-
motion, Lottie, Manim, D3, TerminalScene. Enforces the "keep it
simple" bias: reach for GSAP only when the plugin genuinely earns
its bundle weight.
- skills/pipelines/explainer/asset-director.md — references GSAP for
kinetic typography, multi-step choreography, SVG line draws.
- skills/pipelines/animation/asset-director.md — references GSAP for
logo morphs, motion paths, FLIP transitions, custom easings.
- skills/pipelines/cinematic/asset-director.md — references GSAP for
cinematic camera moves, per-char title reveals, prestige easings.
- AGENT_GUIDE.md — adds a categorized Layer 3 skills table so a fresh-
context agent can find the right skill by what they're trying to do,
plus a pointer to animation-runtime-selector.md for routing.
Determinism: every GSAP use inside Remotion must drive timeline progress
from useCurrentFrame(), never requestAnimationFrame. Three Remotion-safe
patterns are documented in both the gsap/README and the selector skill.

Make synthetic screen recording a first-class, discoverable capability
alongside real OS capture. For CLI / terminal / install-flow demos where
commands and output are predictable, author a `terminal_scene` cut instead
of driving a real screen recorder — deterministic, privacy-safe, pixel-
perfect, and frame-accurate to narration cues.
Components:
- TerminalScene.tsx: window chrome, char-by-char typing, blinking cursor,
scrolling output, non-blocking floating pills, spring-based reveals
- ProviderChip.tsx: rotating badge overlay that cycles through provider
names (used in AI-generated-motion scenes)
- BackgroundVideoLayer + source_in_seconds + backgroundVideo props on
every scene type — supports video-behind-component composition
Discovery chain (six layers, so the next agent finds this without reading
source code):
1. pipeline_defs/screen-demo.yaml — bump to 2.1, declare production_modes
(real_capture, synthetic_terminal) with required_tools, scene_type, and
agent_skills pointers
2. skills/pipelines/screen-demo/idea-director.md — mode-selection table
at brief time; brief.metadata.production_mode contract
3. skills/pipelines/screen-demo/asset-director.md — reads production_mode
and branches asset production (capture+overlays vs steps+narration+
pacing check)
4. .agents/skills/synthetic-screen-recording/SKILL.md — Layer 3 skill with
step kinds (cmd/out/pause/pill), pacing rule, and the frozen-terminal
failure mode captured from the showcase v3 retune
5. AGENT_GUIDE.md — TerminalScene added to Remotion routing; links
SCENE_TYPES.md as the authoritative cut-type registry
6. remotion-composer/SCENE_TYPES.md — new cheat sheet of every cut.type
and overlay.type with required fields, plus a "how to add a new scene
type" section (candidates: ChatTranscript, EditorScene, PrReview,
SlackThread, TicketBoard)
Guardrail:
- lib/verify_scene_pacing.py — reusable trace() and assert_alignment()
helpers that mimic the TerminalScene frame math exactly. Fail loudly
before render if steps burn through too fast or leave the scene frozen.
- New: Higgsfield video provider with multi-model routing (Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, Sora 2, WAN 2.5, Soul Cinema) and Soul ID character consistency
- Updated: Runway provider with gen4_aleph and gen3a_turbo models, proper pixel-ratio mapping, probe_output, watermark param, RUNWAYML_API_SECRET env var support
- Docs: Updated provider counts (12→13), tool counts (51→52), added Higgsfield setup/pricing sections across README, AGENT_GUIDE, ARCHITECTURE, and PROVIDERS
- AGENT_GUIDE.md: add "never read source code" rule — skills are the
interface, not .py files
- animation.yaml: add Layer 2 skill-first guardrail in assets stage
- video-reference-analyst.md: Step 4b now mandates Layer 2 before Layer 3,
explicitly forbids reading implementation code
- CinematicRenderer: add TikTok-style CaptionOverlay and separate music
track support (narration + music as independent audio layers)
- cinematic/types.ts: add CinematicCaptionConfig and music prop types
Fix ComparisonCard and CalloutBox dark-theme passthrough in SceneRenderer.
Add 8 demo-props JSON files (3 fixed originals + 5 new compositions).
Update scene-director and compose-director skills with all 10 Remotion
scene types and zero-key rendering guidance. Document the proven
all-dark-background formula in remotion.md. Add cinematic renderer,
onboarding skill, prompt gallery, and demo render script.
- Add cross-pipeline Music Plan requirement to AGENT_GUIDE User-Facing Planning Protocol
- Add Step 5: Music Plan to cinematic idea-director with library/API/BYO options
- Add music plan resolution to cinematic quality gate
- Ensures agent surfaces music situation before production starts, not at asset stage
- Fix Kling URL format: text_to_video → text-to-video (hyphens)
- Fix Kling, MiniMax, Veo: switch from sync fal.run to queue API with polling
- Add Rule Zero to AGENT_GUIDE: all production must go through pipelines
- Make Layer 3 skill reading mandatory before calling generation tools
- Add explicit do-nots: no ad-hoc scripts, no skipping director skills
Two new provider tools following the BaseTool pattern with auto-discovery:
- google_imagen: Imagen 4 image generation via Generative Language REST API
- google_tts: Google Cloud TTS with 700+ voices across 50+ languages
Both share GOOGLE_API_KEY env var. Selectors auto-discover them — no
selector code changes needed. Docs and contract tests updated.
