Continuity through consistency for generated video: builds the DERIVED reference set and start image every shot needs, keeps the continuity ledger between shots, and runs the refs gate in code before any generation call. Use when a shot must match the shot before it (room, cast, seats, wardrobe, held props, door swing, a named state), when a character, product or room reference is built or cut from a keeper, when a plate or start image is generated, or when seeds keep drifting between shots.…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Video Refs & Continuity

Every still and every clip is generated from nothing, with no memory of the shot before it. Continuity
is therefore **built**: a *ledger* of what each shot leaves behind, a reference set *derived* from what
the operator already accepted, and a *gate* that refuses the generation call until both are in place.
The ruling that binds this skill: spatial and geometric consistency between the shots of a scene is the
PRIORITY consideration for accepting or rejecting a generation — believability depends on it.

Three words carry the method. A **keeper** is a take the operator picked — its frames are the only root a
scene can continue from. **Backfill** means every regen's references come from accepted assets: a keeper
frame, a crop of an accepted plate, an edit of an accepted still; a fresh still is the last resort.
**Lineage** means every start image chains, by crop or image-to-image edit, back to a keeper or the
client's own photo — a still generated from prose starts a new world, and three seeds of it are a round
of continuity errors.

**What varies.** Which venue accepts a photoreal person, how many references a call carries, which mode holds a shot and
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add konradre/video-production-skills/video-refs-continuity@sha256:e21d00134a58a811

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.8114070, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
