Production-quality storyboard planning does require a capable agent runtime because the hard work is continuity design, shot handoff planning, visual reference discipline, prompt writing, and QA.\n\nRecommended agent runtime:\n\n- Codex-style agent mode with local file read/write and command execution.\n- Multimodal model when images, character sheets, keyframes, or storyboard boards are part of the task.\n- Frontier reasoning model, such as GPT-5.5 or an equivalent model, for long-form drama, complex continuity, or high-value production work.\n- Reasoning effort: `high` for normal production work; `xhigh` when available for multi-scene continuity, dense handoff design, or bilingual prompt packages.\n- Long enough context to inspect script briefs, bibles, shot cards, reference matrices, generated images, and edit notes together.\n\nKnown-good author setup: macOS, Codex-style local agent, GPT-5.5-class reasoning, and `xhigh` reasoning for complex packages. Smaller models can still use the scaffold, but may need more human correction for continuity, handoff logic, and prompt consistency.\n\n## Quick Start\n\nCreate a package skeleton from the repository root:\n\n```bash\npython3 skills/create-storyboard/scripts/create_storyboard_package.py demo-product-ad \\\n  --root outputs \\\n  --title \"Demo Product Ad\" \\\n  --duration \"30s\" \\\n  --aspect \"16:9\" \\\n  --video-type \"product ad\"\n```\n\nThe command writes a complete template package under:\n\n```text\noutputs/storyboard_projects/demo-product-ad/\n```\n\n## Platform Notes\n\nThe repository is authored and validated primarily on macOS. The scaffold script uses only the Python standard library and is cross-platform.\n\n- macOS/Linux/WSL2: use the commands as written.\n- Windows PowerShell: use `py` instead of `python3`, and use backticks or single-line commands instead of POSIX backslash continuations.\n- Python 3.10+ is recommended.\n- If the workflow also includes image generation, video generation, or local media tooling, validate those tools separately on the target OS.\n\n## Skill\n\nThe reusable agent skill lives at:\n\n```text\nskills/create-storyboard/SKILL.md\n```\n\nFor Codex-style local installation, copy `skills/create-storyboard/` into your local skills directory and restart the agent.\n\nThe installed skill folder is self-contained for a smoke test:\n\n```bash\ncd ~/.codex/skills/create-storyboard\npython3 scripts/create_storyboard_package.py demo-storyboard \\\n  --root outputs \\\n  --title \"Demo Storyboard\" \\\n  --duration \"30s\" \\\n  --aspect \"16:9\"\n```\n\nRead `skills/create-storyboard/references/runtime-and-platform.md` for agent runtime and OS notes.\n\n## Design Principle\n\nThe important boundary is:\n\n```text\nscript or concept -> continuity bibles -> shot cards -> handoff/edit matrices -> prompts -> generated images/video -> edit plan\n```\n\nStoryboard boards are review and reference artifacts. Clean keyframes are the preferred primary inputs for SceneDance/Seedance. Final production boards should be assembled deterministically from clean panels/keyframes and project metadata, not accepted as raw AI-generated board layouts.\n\n## Status\n\nThis repository is an open-source packaging pass over a working local Codex skill. The deterministic scaffold path is included; image and video generation remain dependent on the user's chosen tools and model/runtime access.\n"}
