Reel Discovery (rank top public reels by topic or business)

Search YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook for the best-performing public short videos about a topic or a business, normalize every hit into one schema, rank by views / engagement / velocity / recency, and write a unified manifest. Optionally download the top N so they flow straight into video-scene-analysis and then reel-restyle.

This is the discovery front-door of the avatar pipeline: discover topic/competitor winners -> analyze their structure -> restyle for your avatar.

When to use

• "Find the top reels about on TikTok / YouTube / Instagram."
• "What short videos are performing best for <business / competitor>?"
• "Get me reference reels to analyze and restyle for my avatar."
