 ## Unreleased
 
+## 0.10.3

+- Remove the implicit documentary visual style from the chat interface; preserve explicitly supplied application styles and let the answer direct its own look.
+- Default chat now plans an answer brief and narrated shots, with an immediate introduction followed by AI-first footage and relevant stock fallback. Creative direction adapts to the request; the model no longer chooses body templates, media sources, scene IDs, or completion commands. Explicit custom template registries retain their existing composition contract.
+- Reserve the answer's ending before streaming body shots, retain valid narration when visuals are unavailable, and skip exact repeated opening or ending lines before requesting media.
+- Fit short clips to measured narration within a bounded playback rate. If moving coverage runs out, use bounded recovery and an explicit waiting state instead of holding a finished frame while speech continues. Preserve deliberate pauses and audio activation across scenes.
+- The optional starter video adapter uses Fal Turbo with five-second clips and intent-specific shot direction; providers, credentials, admission and spending limits remain application-owned.

 ## 0.10.2
 
 - Keep generated narration playing in Safari after a delayed opening-to-body handoff by reusing the permitted audio element; isolate late playback failures from subsequent lines.

-The packaged visual templates are the fast, inexpensive default and require no
-copied source tree. Add a video provider when you want generated footage; the
-same conversation can mix both modes.
+The default chat uses a template introduction while its first shot prepares,
+then generated footage with narration and subtitles. Relevant stock is the
+fallback when generation is unavailable or fails. The planner adapts its
+visible actions and spoken beats to explanations, stories, comedy, imagination,
+and practical requests. It does not choose body templates.

+Packaged templates remain available for custom compositions and source ownership.
