Cast an AI video before anything moves: for every character and hero prop, a passport (one paragraph, every visible detail, pasted word for word into every prompt), a turnaround sheet in the moodboard's look, six expressions written as cause + physical tells, a measured voice line (pace in words per minute, accent, one verbal habit), and for props the materials, wear and how they move and sound. Includes anti-slop design rules, a prompt builder that refuses paraphrased passports, code routes…
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
# Character passport Character slop comes from letting the model choose the face, the clothes and the feeling. This skill takes those choices back, one checkable line at a time, and proves each step on a still before any video is paid for. What our test showed (Nano Banana 2.1, 2026-11-03, full write-up: https://claude.ai/artifact/AJ1g4Qren3ZvwERSwrQigt): - **The passport gets you halfway; the sheet finishes the job.** Two blind AI judges scored "same person across four shots" 2/10 for the moodboard's one-line subject, 5/10 for the passport alone, and 7.5-8.5/10 with a sheet as Image 1. Grey and moodboard-lit sheets tied; neither leaked its grid or backdrop. - **Big features survive, small and side-specific ones don't.** Collar, scarf, hair and eye shadows: 89-100%. Hair behind the right ear 0/23, scar on the left 0/14 (mirrored), salt-marked boots 0/12, worn umbrella handle 0/22 when its own prop sheet was not attached. - **Cause + tells beats adjectives for acting.** Stills: more real (7 vs 5) and less theatrical (3.5 vs 6). Video, same start frame: the adjective prompt made Kling 4 under-act and Seedance 2.5 over-act into a snarl; …

How to install
mdr add varghq/skills/character-passport@sha256:9aa123f188b8827aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
