video-use makes a strong interface choice: the agent primarily reads video instead of watching every frame. One transcription pass produces word timestamps, speakers, and audio events in a compact text view. Visual filmstrips and waveforms are generated only for ambiguous pauses, retake comparisons, and cut-point checks.
The workflow is explicit: inventory footage, propose a strategy, wait for approval, transcribe and pack, reason over the material, write an edit decision list, render, and self-evaluate the result at every cut boundary. The repository uses FFmpeg for production work and can add overlays through HyperFrames, Remotion, Manim, or PIL.
This is a useful multimodal compression pattern. A structured representation carries most decisions; expensive visual inspection is demand-driven; the final artifact is still rendered and checked. It lowers context cost without pretending that transcript alone captures every visual fact.
