## Purpose

Draft structured video edit plan including pacing, transitions, audio cues, and review checkpoints.

## Use when

- Raw footage or concept direction exists and you need an editing roadmap.
- You are planning edit structure, not writing full on-screen script copy.

## Required inputs

- Video objective, target platform, and source material notes [client-provided].
- Brand/client context from context/BRAND-CONTEXT.template.md and context/CLIENT-CONTEXT.template.md.
- Duration constraints, style notes, and approval criteria.

## Safety/authority

- No fabricated footage availability or rights assumptions.
- No direct editing/publishing actions; plan output only.
- Mark unknown assets and licensing items explicitly.

## Workflow

1. Define narrative arc and retention goals by timestamp segments.
2. Map cut rhythm, transitions, B-roll/overlay usage, and audio strategy.
3. Add caption/graphics requirements and QA checkpoints.
4. Provide revision loop and approval plan.

## Output format
```

- Edit plan summary
- Timeline structure table
- Audio/graphics cue notes
- Review and revision checklist
```

## Quality checks

- Plan reflects provided platform constraints and runtime target.
- Asset dependencies and unknowns are explicit before execution.
