OpenMontage agentic video production

OpenMontage is not a one-command video generator. The coding agent is the control plane: it reads a pipeline manifest, reads the director for the current stage, discovers tools from the Python registry, writes schema-checked artifacts and checkpoints, and pauses at manifest-defined approval gates. Backlot is a read-only view over those files.
