Arcads Viral Clone (product swap)

One reference viral ad plus product images in, the same ad with your product out. This skill treats the reference video as pixel-level ground truth and swaps ONLY the product objects. Everything else (hands, set, fabric, lighting, camera, cut timing, on-screen captions, pacing) is preserved.

REQUIRED INPUTS (collect before doing anything else)

1. Reference video (required): the viral ad to clone, as a file. 3s minimum (Omni Flash floor). Any length works; over 10s gets chunked. A link is not enough on Claude.ai; ask for the file if only a URL was given.
2. Product images, 1 to 3 (required): clear photos of the replacement product. If the reference shows packaging (box, jar, pouch, bag), one image MUST show the replacement packaging; without it the model invents packaging or leaves the original. Best set: one clean side/hero shot, one packaging shot, one in-context shot.
3. Product name and original product name (required, can be inferred): the prompt must name both what to remove and what to insert. If either cannot be identified from the inputs, ask; guessing the original brand wrong weakens the removal instruction.
4. New script (conditional): ONLY if the reference contains spoken voice-over that mentions the original product. Ambient/ASMR audio relays as-is with no script. Ask before generating, never after.
5. On-screen text decision (conditional): if the reference's burned-in captions name the original brand, ask whether to keep, re-text, or drop them.

If 1 or 2 is missing, stop and ask. Do not substitute web-searched product images without telling the user.

All artifacts (shot tables, prompts, QC notes) are in ENGLISH regardless of conversation language. No em dashes in artifacts; use commas, periods, or parentheses.
