Choose the rendering engine(s) for a video beat or a whole piece - GSAP, SVG rig, Lottie, Rive, Pixi, Three.js, Blender, page capture or footage - from the look wanted, the assets available and the render cost. Use while writing a storyboard or when asked "what should we use for this?".
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
# Picking an engine
The full table and the determinism rules are in `engines/README.md`. Read it first.
Pick the look first (`looks/README.md`): it names its usual engines (neon-noir → Three.js `emissive` + `bloom`,
photoreal → `realistic` + `pbr` or Blender Cycles, toon-3d → `toon` + `outline`, editorial and kinetic-type → GSAP).
Then use the questions below for each beat.
## Decide by asking, in order
1. **Is it mostly text, UI or layout?** → GSAP only. Most ads are this. Stop here unless a hero visual is needed.
2. **Is there a character?**
- A designer gave a Lottie (`.json`) → Lottie.
- A designer gave a Rive (`.riv`) → Rive (`engines/rive.js`; state machines take timed inputs).
- No designer file → SVG rig (`engines/svg-rig.js`). Draw it from simple shapes in the brand colours.
- It speaks the voiceover → add lip sync (`scripts/lipsync.sh` + `engines/lipsync.js`) to whatever draws it: SVG
rig, the brand's mascot PNG, Three.js or Blender. Seconds per line; it is not an extra engine to justify.
3. **Is the hero a physical product or a 3D object?**
- Real CAD or a GLB model, or camera moves around an object → Three.js. Realistic: `realistic()` + `pbr()`;

How to install
mdr add murathany7/reel-studio/pick-engine@sha256:5c5eb3f2223ffebeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.ba432e7, 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.
