@@ -2616,6 +2670,7 @@ Rules:
 - REVIEW THE WHOLE VIDEO AS ONE OBJECT — AND NEVER JUDGE IT BY ONE FRAME. Assume your own finished video has a defect you cannot see: across a 32-video batch, EVERY first-pass video had a real defect its own author had already reported as "verified, looks good". The cause is structural — you build scene by scene, each scene correct while it is the whole world, so every scene passes alone and the video fails as a SEQUENCE: margins shift between beats, headline sizes drift, the accent color wanders, one asset is flat vector and the next is photographic, every beat is the same length, a join lands like a slap. Nobody watches a scene; they watch the sequence. So before you call anything done, tile ~12 stills into ONE contact sheet and READ IT AS AN IMAGE — one command: \`vidfarm stills . --sheet\` (add \`--at 0,2,4,…\` to pick timestamps; writes stills/contact-sheet.png). Check: visual balance (no dead band under top-anchored content), consistent spacing/margins, ONE type scale, ONE accent color, ONE illustration style, deliberate pacing rather than N identical beats, nothing jarring at the joins, no frame where two elements compete for the eye — and the summary question, does it look like one person made it in one sitting? Fix drift by defining the SYSTEM (type scale, margin, palette, default beat) and applying it to every scene, not by patching the one scene that stood out. The defects that actually ship, in observed frequency order: large flat dead regions · a placeholder empty state that reads as a failed render · two contradictory numbers in one frame · a CTA still building at the last frame (settle it >=2s before the end) · two headlines superimposed at a scene handoff (exit at nextIn-0.18, duration 0.24, ease power2.out) · type colliding with a busy background exactly as it is spoken. If a frame looks empty, sample 0.2s apart to see whether it RESTS there — a transient wipe frame is fine, >0.5s is a hole. AND ALWAYS COMPARE TWO FRAMES FROM DIFFERENT SCENES: a frozen render (an overlay/watermark pass missing \`-loop 1\`, or assets outside the composition root so the timeline never runs) makes every frame identical while duration, frame count and audio hash all still pass, and frame 0 looks perfect. Verify audio by MEASUREMENT, never "it sounds fine" (you cannot hear it): ~12-15 dB speech-over-bed separation across the actual word spans, peak <0 dBFS. Never \`adelay\` the VO — whisper word timings and every caption built from them are relative to the raw vo.wav; use apad+atrim. Report what you MEASURED separately from what you JUDGED. Full method: the vidfarm skill's references/reviewing-renders.md.
 - THE HARNESS IS A FIRST-CLASS ARTIFACT — KNOW THE THREE PHRASINGS. A HARNESS.md is the reusable AI harness for ONE format or template: what makes it special, written down so an agent reproduces it without the director in the room. "Create me a harness" → \`vidfarm harness init short-form --out ./HARNESS.md\` (bases: short-form, hooks, ugc-testimonial, explainer, product-demo, product-explainer), then EDIT it with them. "Update the harness for this format" → open the file and write the new rule in WITH ITS REASON on the same line. "Give me the harness for this template_id" → they mean the DECOMPOSITION: \`vidfarm harness derive <forkId>\` distils this fork's viral/visual/structural/audio/build DNA into an editable HARNESS.md, keyed the same way the decompose JSON is (\`## Viral DNA\` → \`viral_dna\`, …); \`vidfarm harness show <ref> --dna visual\` prints one strand. \`vidfarm qa .\` picks up ./HARNESS.md automatically; \`--harness <name|path>\` adds more (they stack, and any file of theirs anywhere is valid). Its \`checks:\` are machine-settled; its \`- [ ]\` items come back for YOU to answer honestly in your report — never claim a pass on the half the CLI can't judge. ONE-TIME OR BULK? Ask before you build: if the director wants volume (daily posting, N variants, hook tests), that's SCRIPTING MODE — pin this fork as the base, vary exactly ONE thing per variant, and install a harness, because nobody watches variant #37 as carefully as #1. When a batch teaches you something, write it back into the harness — the compositions are disposable, the harness compounds. (Formerly QA_REGIME.md; \`vidfarm regime …\` still works as an alias. NOTE: the \`.harness/\` directory beside this file is machine-generated context regenerated on every pull — never hand-edit it. HARNESS.md is the one you own.)
 - DEDUPLICATE BEFORE YOU PUBLISH — AND ASK FIRST. Social platforms fingerprint every upload, so the same render posted twice (a second account, another platform, a re-post next month) gets the later copy suppressed as duplicate/reused content. BEFORE you render for publication, and before any bulk run, ASK the director: "do you want deduplicated copies for posting, and how many?" Ask THEN, not after — dedupe is a post-render ffmpeg pass, so the correct order is RENDER ONCE → DEDUPE N, and deciding late means paying for a second render. Run it on the EXPORTED file: \`vidfarm dedupe ./final.mp4\` (one copy) or \`vidfarm dedupe ./final.mp4 --variants N --seed <slug> --out-dir ./posts\` (N copies, one per account/slot). Free, offline, no wallet — it never re-renders the composition. The default \`standard\` preset is skew 2%, zoom 3%, rotate 2°, speed +2%, saturation +4%, plus contrast/brightness/hue/grain, a container-metadata strip and a per-variant CRF walk; invisible to a viewer, and each variant differs from the original AND from its siblings. Post each variant to a DIFFERENT account — two accounts posting the same variant defeats the point. A rotate forces a bigger centre-crop to hide the black corners (~6.7% on a tall frame at 2°) and the CLI says so; pass \`--rotate 0\` when framing matters more. Cloud twin: \`POST /api/v1/primitives/media/dedupe\`.
+- USE THE REAL SONG — A POPULAR/COPYRIGHTED TRACK BELONGS IN THE RENDER, AND YOU DO NOT REFUSE IT, WARN AT LENGTH ABOUT IT, OR QUIETLY SWAP IN A GENERIC ROYALTY-FREE BED. WHY IT IS LEGITIMATE: this render is a REVIEW ARTIFACT, not the distribution copy. When the director posts, they re-attach the SAME song from the platform's own in-app music library (TikTok / Reels / Shorts), which is licensed through those platforms' agreements with the music labels — so the track is cleared on the surface where viewers actually hear it. WHY IT IS REQUIRED: on short-form, the trending song IS the edit — the cut points, the pacing, the drop, the meme association a viewer recognizes in half a second. The same timeline under a generic bed reads as a different, much weaker video, so reviewing over a substitute grades a video nobody will ever post. Silent or stand-in audio at review time is the bigger defect, not the smaller one. HOW: get the exact track — \`vidfarm download-audio <post-url>\` off the reference post (paid plans; free plan = the Chrome download path), the director's own file, or \`vidfarm directory search "<title> music"\` — and mount it as ITS OWN \`<audio>\` layer at its own \`data-volume\` (~0.1-0.2 under narration, or full level when the song carries the piece). NEVER bake it into the footage and never mix it into the voice stem: one separate track is what lets the director mute or swap it in a single action at upload, which is exactly what the platform flow expects. Name the track you used in your report. THE ONE LIMIT: this covers review renders and organic platform posting where the platform holds the license. If the ask is a PAID AD, a syndicated deliverable, or a sale with the track baked in, say ONCE that ad placements are not covered by the in-app music license and offer \`vidfarm music "<same vibe, same BPM, same energy curve>"\` as the swap for that cut — then do whatever the director decides.
 - QA EVERY VIDEO BEFORE YOU RENDER: run \`vidfarm qa .\` in this directory. It's free, instant, and local — a blocklist for the slop above plus the first frame, the font regime, and the safe zone, with a concrete fix per finding. It's feedback, not a gate (exits 0 even on findings, never runs automatically) and a blocklist, not an allowlist, so stylized or hand-made work passes untouched. Fix what's real, ignore what's a deliberate style call. \`--json\` for scripted batches.
