# agent-media — AI UGC Video Production & Media Generation

Produce complete UGC videos and SaaS review videos from the terminal using the `agent-media` CLI.

---

## MANDATORY RULES — READ BEFORE EVERY COMMAND

**You MUST follow ALL of these rules. Violating any rule produces a broken, unwatchable video.**

### Rule 1: ALWAYS use `--actor`
Every UGC video MUST include `--actor <slug>`. Without an actor, there is no talking head and no lip sync — the video will just be a static image with voiceover. If the user hasn't specified an actor, ask them to pick one or default to a popular one like `sofia` or `naomi`. Run `agent-media actor list` to browse options.

### Rule 2: ALWAYS count words — 2.5 words per second
Natural speech is 2.5 words/second. Scripts MUST match the target duration:
- **5s video** → ~12 words max
- **10s video** → ~25 words max
- **15s video** → ~37 words max

If the user provides a script that is too long, YOU MUST rewrite it to fit. A 73-word script crammed into 15 seconds will sound robotic and lose lip sync. NEVER submit a script that exceeds the word limit.

### Rule 3: SaaS reviews MUST have screenshots
For any SaaS/product review video, you MUST provide 1-3 product screenshots via `--broll --broll-images`. Without screenshots, the video has no product context — viewers see only a talking head with no evidence of the product.

`--broll-images` accepts both **HTTP/HTTPS URLs** and **local file paths** (local files are auto-uploaded). Images are **semantically matched** to the most relevant broll scene based on filename — so use descriptive filenames! Examples:
- `--broll-images ./dashboard.png,./calendar-view.png` (local files — descriptive names!)
- `--broll-images https://example.com/pricing-page.png,https://example.com/editor.png` (URLs)
- Mix of both works too

If the user provides a product URL but no screenshots, visit the site yourself and extract image URLs from the page.

### Rule 4: SaaS reviews MUST have the product name
Ask the user: "What SaaS product should I review?" Do NOT proceed without it. The product name must appear in the script so it shows up in subtitles.

### Rule 5: Always use `--sync`
Always append `--sync` to wait for the result and get the output URL.

### Rule 6: Name screenshot files descriptively
Broll images are **semantically matched** to scenes by filename. Use descriptive names so the AI assigns the right image to the right scene:
- **GOOD**: `dashboard.png`, `calendar-view.png`, `post-editor.png`
- **BAD**: `screenshot1.png`, `IMG_0042.png`, `image.png`

When saving screenshots for `--broll-images`, rename them to describe what they show.

## Prerequisites

The `agent-media` CLI must be installed and authenticated:

```bash
npm install -g agent-media-cli
agent-media login
```

Verify with `agent-media whoami`. If not logged in, run `agent-media login` and follow the OTP flow.

## UGC Pipeline (Flagship Feature)

The UGC pipeline turns a script into a complete video with AI talking heads, B-roll, voiceover, and animated subtitles — one command.

### Flow

Script → Scene splitting → TTS voiceover → AI talking heads + B-roll → Crossfade assembly → Animated subtitles → Background music → End screen CTA

### Basic UGC

```bash
# ALWAYS include --actor for talking heads + lip sync
agent-media ugc "Ever wonder why some videos go viral? Here's the secret..." --actor sofia --sync

# From file
agent-media ugc ./script.txt --actor naomi --sync

# AI-generated script from a product description
agent-media ugc -g "A fitness tracker that monitors sleep quality" --actor marcus --sync
```

### UGC with B-roll

```bash
# With B-roll cutaway scenes mixed in
agent-media ugc "Your script here..." --actor marcus --broll --sync

# With product screenshots as B-roll (REQUIRED for SaaS reviews)
agent-media ugc "Your script here..." --actor sofia --broll --broll-images https://example.com/screenshot1.png,https://example.com/screenshot2.png --sync
```

### Subtitle Styles

Available styles: `hormozi` (yellow karaoke highlight, default), `minimal`, `bold` (neon cyan), `karaoke` (green pop), `clean` (white on dark), `tiktok`, `neon`

## SaaS Review Videos

Generate a complete SaaS review video. **ALL FOUR are required — do NOT skip any:**
1. **Product name** in the script (so it appears in subtitles)
2. **`--actor`** (for talking head + lip sync)
3. **`--broll --broll-images`** with 1-3 product screenshot URLs
4. **Script word count** matching duration (2.5 words/sec)

### Step-by-Step Flow (FOLLOW THIS EXACTLY)

1. **Get product name** — ask user if not provided. STOP if missing.
2. **Get 1-3 screenshot URLs** — ask user, or if they give a URL, visit the site and extract `<img>` URLs showing the product dashboard/UI. STOP if no screenshots.
3. **Pick an actor** — ask user or default to `naomi` or `sofia`. Run `agent-media actor list` if they want to browse.
4. **Write the script** — MUST be ~25 words for 10s or ~37 words for 15s. Mention the product name 2-3 times. Count the words before submitting.
5. **Run the command** with ALL required flags:

```bash
# CORRECT — descriptive filenames so images match the right scenes
agent-media ugc "Postiz is the best social media tool I've used. Postiz schedules across twenty-five platforms with AI. Try Postiz today." \
  --actor naomi --duration 10 --style hormozi --broll \
  --broll-images ./postiz-dashboard.png,./postiz-calendar.png --sync

# CORRECT — URLs with descriptive paths work too
agent-media ugc "Postiz is the best social media tool I've used. Postiz schedules across twenty-five platforms with AI. Try Postiz today." \
  --actor naomi --duration 10 --style hormozi --broll \
