Generate a non-interactive cutscene — reference-locked look, a 5-10s image-to-video shot, optional TTS dialogue — wired as a fading VideoStreamPlayer.

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

# cinematic-cutscene — Locked-Look Story Beat in 5-10 Seconds

A cutscene is a non-interactive video clip the game plays back at a fixed moment — opening, story beat, character intro, ending. Quality is dominated by **two things**: continuity (the character on screen looks like the character in the game) and shot length (every clip past 10s drifts in identity, hands, and physics). This skill enforces both — generate a reference image first to lock the look, then image-to-video each shot, then chain shots in sequence rather than asking the model for one long take.

If the user wants 5 seconds of marketing footage, that's `trailer-shot`. If they want a seamless background loop, that's `animated-loop`. This skill is for narrative beats with a defined start, middle, and end — usually with dialogue or VO.

## When to use

- "Generate the opening cinematic for the game."
- "I need a cutscene where the witch turns to the player and warns them about the curse."
- "Make a 10-second character intro for the boss."
- "Add an ending sequence after the player defeats the dragon."
- "Cinematic where the village burns and the protagonist runs."

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add summerengine/summer/cinematic-cutscene@sha256:c0fcd365f4f8ccd1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.4ade947, 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.
