Build and render a papercut episode from a storyboard with the library. Scaffolds the project, builds scenes with parallel agents, assets and audio, renders the mp4, then harvests reusables. Use for "build the reel", "scaffold an episode", "rebuild scene 4", "render it".
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
# Papercut build Build every episode on the library instead of writing a Remotion project from scratch. Read `library/README.md` once. ## Preflight - Install: **Standard** or Full. Needs the library, node 20+, npm, ffmpeg, Python tools (numpy, Pillow, soundfile) and Chrome or Chromium for the audio render. Probe with the commands in `papercut-explainer`; if something is missing, run `./install.sh --doctor` and hand over to `papercut-setup`. - Library: `$PAPERCUT_LIB`, else the `PAPERCUT_LIB=` line in `~/.config/papercut-explainer/config.env`, else ask once. With no library at all, build from the sketches in `../papercut-explainer/references/remotion-recipes.md`. - Load the Remotion best-practices skill first (`remotion-best-practices`, from the Remotion plugin, or `npx skills add remotion-dev/skills -g -y -a <your harness id>`; `install.sh --mode standard` does this) and follow its routing for markup, captions and the Studio. - Needs `papercut/STORYBOARD.md` and `narration/script.json` from the earlier stages. - Smoke test of the whole toolchain: `library/tools/selftest.sh` builds `examples/hello-reel/` in a throwaway folder and renders one still. ## 1.

How to install
mdr add 0xs4n4tg/papercut-explainer/papercut-build@sha256:ddf947992d56c4bdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.ff8223a, 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.
