Capsule Cinema

Use Capsule Cinema as a recipe-driven local video studio. Keep planning, generation, targeted rework, assembly, QA, and reusable production knowledge auditable in one workspace.

Resolve the runtime

Resolve the runtime before reading references or running commands:

1. If {baseDir}/scripts/capsule.py exists, use {baseDir} as CAPSULE_CINEMA_ROOT. This is a standalone Codex, Claude Code, or OpenClaw installation.
2. Otherwise, if {baseDir}/../../scripts/capsule.py exists, normalize {baseDir}/../.. and use it as CAPSULE_CINEMA_ROOT. This is an OpenClaw plugin or source checkout.
3. Otherwise run bash {baseDir}/scripts/bootstrap-runtime.sh. Use the absolute path printed on stdout as CAPSULE_CINEMA_ROOT. The bootstrap clones the public runtime into the installed skill without reading or moving credentials.
4. Change to CAPSULE_CINEMA_ROOT before using relative paths in this skill.

If the runtime was just cloned, verify the prerequisites and install Python dependencies before production:
