Generate video production assets through a 5-stage human-in-the-loop pipeline. Each stage requires user approval before advancing.
Asset-heavy skill. Grep before Read the asset catalog (${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/<brand>/assets/index.json) — never list the asset directory. Reference generated images / videos by path, not by loading metadata. Brand profile loads once per session.

The user picks one concept (or requests refinements) before proceeding.
Generate 2 first-frame options based on the chosen concept. These set the opening visual and establish the look and feel.
Generate 2 last-frame options that complete the visual narrative arc, matching the approved first frame.
Using the approved first and last frames, generate 2 video versions via WaveSpeed's Kling v3.0 Pro image-to-video endpoint (3-15 seconds).
After the user picks the final video, post-processing runs before saving:
Save all final assets to {post_folder}/ -- keyframes in keyframes/, video versions in versions/, platform-resized final videos in final/:
