Build the narrated what-was-made walkthrough for a QA packet: script from plan + acceptance, demo pass, segments.json, animate graphics, kokoro narration, orc-explain assemble.
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
# Explainer **Announce at start:** "I'm using the explainer skill to build the narrated walkthrough." Inputs: `<qa-dir>` with `qa-manifest.json`, the session's `plan.md` (optional), the target **name** + optional `--base-url` override for the demo pass (resolved inline per `orc:qa-targets`; never the resolved JSON), settings `explainer_style` (`CLAUDE_PLUGIN_OPTION_EXPLAINER_STYLE`, default `isometric`) and `explainer_voice` (`CLAUDE_PLUGIN_OPTION_EXPLAINER_VOICE`, default `af_heart`). ## 1. Toolchain `orc-explain setup` (first run: npm install kokoro-js into the user cache; model downloads on first narration). `command -v ffmpeg` missing ⇒ stop with one line, no explainer. animate missing ⇒ say `graphic segments will be plain title cards` and continue. ## 2. Demo footage If `<qa-dir>/demo/` lacks a `.webm` per `@golden` scenario: `( cd <repo>/<dir> && ORC_TARGET_JSON="$(orc-targets resolve <name> [--base-url <override>])" ORC_PW_OUTPUT_DIR=<qa-dir>/pw-demo npx playwright test --project=demo )` (resolve stays inline — `orc:qa-targets` iron rule), then `orc-qa-video plan --results <qa-dir>/pw-demo/results.json` and copy each `video` to `<qa-dir>/demo/<id>.webm`. …

How to install
mdr add higoralves/orc/explainer@sha256:995e7ef06e071155The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.7a1f356, 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.
