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

# stage-consistency

How to keep characters, settings, and style **consistent across many generated shots** (and across scenes in a long story). This is the depth layer on top of the generation line: the generation line makes clips; this skill makes the SAME character look the same in every clip. Host-neutral — describe the outcome; use generic built-in capabilities for generation/retrieval (Orkas: `generate_image`, `generate_video`, `kb_*`) and VideoStudio skill scripts for media extraction (`stage-edit edit_video --op extract_frame` via `bin/run-skill.cjs`).

## 1. Character bible (extract once, lock the look)

From the script/idea, extract every recurring character into `project/characters/bible.json`. For each character separate:

- **static features** — the *immutable* visual identity: face, hair, body shape, ethnicity, age range. These NEVER change shot-to-shot.
- **dynamic features** — changeable: clothing, accessories, expression.
- a single **canonical name** (merge every alias/pronoun for the same person to one id).

```json
{
  "alice": {
    "static": "early-20s East-Asian woman, oval face, long black hair, slim build",

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add orkas-ai/orkas/stage-consistency@sha256:013f70ea9153958e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.00a1599, 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.
