tape-demo

Produce a reproducible scripted terminal demo: write a VHS .tape file that describes the session (settings, typed commands, pauses), then render it to GIF/MP4 with vhs. The tape is source code — commit it next to the artifact so the demo regenerates the same way after every CLI change (reproducible given the same tool versions, fonts, and environment). No live recording, no typos, no personal shell state on screen.

When NOT to use

• Capturing a real session's authentic output/timing → cast-record.
• Converting or restyling an existing .cast recording → cast-render.
• Removing secrets from a recording → cast-redact.
• Browser/GUI walkthroughs — VHS drives a terminal only.

Decision rule: no recording exists yet and the goal is a polished README/docs demo → this skill.
