render-podcast-skit

Assemble a two-host fake-podcast skit ad from a config: a skeptic and a believer at an absurd themed podcast desk do a snappy back-and-forth about the product (the set is deliberately unrelated — that is the joke). Each line is its own lipsync clip so the edit can cut on the dialogue beat (~1.8s avg); this capability is the FREE, deterministic assembly that concatenates those clips, renders the WHITE captions, and appends the brand end card.

scripts/config.example.json is the worked example (Ladder run-02 "Laundromat 2am", ~49s 1080×1920 9:16, ~22 lines); scripts/PIPELINE.md maps every config block to its source step and scripts/README.md documents the free assembly.
