A Claude Code / Claude Agent skill that turns a script, a paragraph of prose, or a single keyframe into a complete production plan — beats, director's book, blocking, shot list with coverage, keyframe prompts, image-to-video motion prompts, a sound plan, an edit timeline, a continuity bible, and a coded QC repair loop. Optionally apply one of twenty director-style lenses as a coherent overlay across the entire pass.

Why this exists

Most "cinematic" AI prompts are adjective soup — *cinematic, dramatic, masterpiece, 8K*. They don't tell a model where the camera is, what the body is doing, where the action ends, or which anchors must not drift. The result is the slideshow look: pretty stills that wander between shots.

This skill replaces adjective soup with **directorial reasoning**:

• A shot is a story decision, not a style descriptor. If you can't say what the audience now understands that they didn't a second ago, the shot gets cut.
• Blocking comes before framing. Camera placement follows what bodies do in space. A well-blocked scene reads even shot flat.
• The keyframe is the control point. A video model mostly re-animates what the still already decided. Fixing the still is cheaper than retrying the video.
• Continuity is engineered, not hoped for. Identity strings, light dir
