## What it does

In create mode, the skill turns a product, service, or other offer brief into a visual grammar plan and shot script. It maps the audience pressure, offer interaction, visible outcome, mechanism, and available proof. Each shot gets timing, composition, camera movement, action, sound, text, and a clear purpose.

In review mode, the skill first runs `$media-analysis`, then records when the offer appears and audits the ad with Strong / Partial / Weak / Missing findings and timecodes. It also checks causal gaps and classifies the material as complete_ad, excerpt, or incomplete.

The create flow ends with production locks, checks, and one approval question. Production does not begin before approval, so the locked direction needs a separate confirmation.
