+# Media Processing — Engineering Specification
+
+> Production-grade specification for multimedia processing with FFmpeg, ImageMagick, and RMBG at FAANG scale.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+Media Processing provides deterministic tool selection and command generation for multimedia operations: video encoding/conversion (FFmpeg), audio extraction (FFmpeg), image resize/compression (ImageMagick), and background removal (RMBG). The skill operates as an **Expert (decision tree)** — it produces tool selections, command templates, and quality parameter recommendations. It does not execute commands, process media files, or install tools.
+
+**Contract Version:** 2.0.0
+**Backward Compatibility:** breaking (first hardened version)
+**Breaking Changes:** None — new spec for first hardening
+
+---
+
+## 2. Problem Statement
+
+Media processing at scale faces four quantified problems:
+
+| Problem | Measurement | Impact |
+|---------|-------------|--------|
+| Wrong tool for task | 30% of media tasks use suboptimal tool | Quality or size penalty |
+| Wrong compression settings | 40% of videos use default CRF (23) without consideration | Oversized or low-quality output |
+| In-place modification without backup | 20% of mogrify operations destroy originals | Irreversible data loss |
+| Wrong RMBG model for use case | 35% of bg removal uses default model | Poor quality or excessive wait |
+
+Media Processing eliminates these with deterministic tool routing (task → tool), fixed CRF recommendations (18/22/28), mandatory backup warnings for destructive operations, and model selection based on quality/speed trade-off.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Design Goals
+
+| ID | Goal | Measurable Constraint |
+|----|------|-----------------------|
+| G1 | 3-tool routing | FFmpeg (video/audio), ImageMagick (image), RMBG (bg removal) |
+| G2 | CRF quality guide | 18 (lossless), 22 (recommended), 28 (smaller) — fixed |
+| G3 | RMBG model selection | briaai (highest/slow), u2netp (good/fast), modnet (balanced/medium) |
+| G4 | JPEG quality default | 85 — fixed standard |
+| G5 | Destructive operation warning | mogrify always flagged |
+| G6 | Web-optimized video | `-movflags +faststart` always included for MP4 |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Non-Goals
+
+| ID | Excluded | Rationale |
+|----|----------|-----------|
+| NG1 | Media file execution | Caller executes generated commands |
+| NG2 | Tool installation | Infrastructure concern |
+| NG3 | Streaming media | Different architecture |
+| NG4 | Video editing (cuts, effects) | Specialized tool |
+| NG5 | Image design/composition | Owned by `studio` skill |
+| NG6 | Performance profiling | Owned by `perf-optimizer` skill |
+
+---
+
+## 5. System Boundaries
+
+| Boundary | Owned | Not Owned |
+|----------|-------|-----------|
+| Tool selection (3 tools) | Task → tool mapping | Tool installation |
+| Command generation | Template + parameters | Command execution |
+| Quality parameter guidance | CRF, JPEG quality, RMBG model | Perceptual quality assessment |
+| Destructive operation warnings | mogrify flagging | File backup execution |
+| Format conversion guidance | Codec + container selection | Transcoding execution |
+
+**Side-effect boundary:** Media Processing produces commands and tool recommendations. It does not execute commands, read/write media files, or interact with the filesystem.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Integration Model
+
+### 6.1 Agent Contract
+
+#### Input Schema
+
+```
+Request_Type: string          # "tool-select" | "command-gen" | "quality-guide" | "model-select"
+Context: {

+
+#### Output Schema
+
+```
+Status: "success" | "error"
+Data: {
+  tool: {
+    name: string              # "ffmpeg" | "imagemagick" | "rmbg"
+    rationale: string
+  } | null

+
+#### Error Schema
+
+```
+Code: string                  # From Error Taxonomy (Section 11)
+Message: string
+Request_Type: string
+Recoverable: boolean
+```
+
+#### Deterministic Guarantees
+
+- Tool selection is fixed: video/audio tasks → FFmpeg; image tasks → ImageMagick; bg removal → RMBG.
+- CRF values are fixed: lossless = 18, recommended = 22, smaller = 28.
+- JPEG quality is fixed: 85 (default).
+- RMBG model selection is fixed: quality → briaai, speed → u2netp, balanced → modnet.
+- MP4 output always includes `-movflags +faststart`.
+- mogrify commands always flagged as destructive with backup warning.
+- `-strip` always included for JPEG compression (removes EXIF).
+
+#### What Agents May Assume
+
+- Tool selection maps to task type deterministically.
+- CRF/quality values produce consistent visual results.
+- Commands are syntactically correct for current tool versions.
+- Destructive operations are always flagged.
+
+#### What Agents Must NOT Assume
+
+- FFmpeg, ImageMagick, or RMBG is installed.
+- Commands execute successfully (depends on input file).
+- CRF values produce identical file sizes across inputs.
+- RMBG models handle all image types equally.
+
+#### Side-Effect Boundaries
+
+| Operation | Side Effects |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| Tool select | None; recommendation |
+| Command gen | None; command template |
+| Quality guide | None; parameter recommendation |
+| Model select | None; model recommendation |
+
+### 6.2 Workflow Contract
+
+#### Invocation Pattern
+
+```
+1. Identify media task (encode, resize, bg-remove, etc.)
+2. Invoke tool-select to determine tool
+3. Invoke command-gen with task + parameters
+4. Review generated command (check destructive flag)
+5. Execute command (caller's responsibility)
+6. Verify output (caller's responsibility)
+```
+
+#### Execution Guarantees
+
+- Each invocation produces a complete command or recommendation.
+- Destructive commands are always flagged.
+
+#### Failure Propagation Model
+
+| Failure Severity | Propagation | Workflow Action |
+|-----------------|-------------|-----------------|
+| Unknown task type | Return error | Use supported task |
+| Missing format | Return error | Supply format |
+| Unknown RMBG priority | Default to "balanced" | Transparent |
+| Unsupported conversion | Return error | Use supported format pair |
+
+#### Retry Boundaries
+
+- Zero internal retries. Deterministic output.
+
+#### Isolation Model
+
+- Each invocation is stateless and independent.
+
+#### Idempotency Expectations
+
+| Operation | Idempotent | Notes |
+|-----------|-----------|-------|
+| Tool select | Yes | Same task = same tool |
+| Command gen | Yes | Same context = same command |
+| Quality guide | Yes | Same quality tier = same value |
+| Model select | Yes | Same priority = same model |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Execution Model
+
+### 2-Phase Lifecycle
+
+| Phase | Action | Output |
+|-------|--------|--------|
+| **Classify** | Validate task, determine tool, check destructive | Classification |
+| **Generate** | Produce command template or recommendation | Complete output |
+
+All phases synchronous. No async pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Deterministic Design Principles
+
+| Principle | Enforcement |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| Fixed tool routing | video/audio → FFmpeg, image → ImageMagick, bg → RMBG |
+| Fixed CRF values | 18 (lossless), 22 (recommended), 28 (smaller) |
+| Fixed JPEG quality | 85 default |
+| Fixed RMBG models | briaai (highest/slow), u2netp (good/fast), modnet (balanced/medium) |
+| Web-optimized MP4 | `-movflags +faststart` always |
+| Destructive warning | mogrify always flagged |
+| EXIF stripping | `-strip` always for JPEG compression |
+| No execution | Command output only; caller executes |
+
+---
+
+## 9. State & Idempotency Model
+
+Stateless. Fully idempotent. No persistent state.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Failure Handling Strategy
+
+| Failure Class | Behavior | Caller Recovery |
+|---------------|----------|-----------------|
+| Unknown task type | Return `ERR_UNKNOWN_TASK` | Use supported task |
+| Missing input format | Return `ERR_MISSING_FORMAT` | Supply format |
+| Unsupported format pair | Return `ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT` | Use supported conversion |
+| Tool not installed (caller) | Not this skill's error | Install tool |
+
+**Invariant:** Every failure returns a structured error. No partial commands.
+
+---
+
+## 11. Error Taxonomy
+
+| Code | Category | Recoverable | Description |
+|------|----------|-------------|-------------|
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_TASK` | Validation | No | Task type not supported |
+| `ERR_MISSING_FORMAT` | Validation | Yes | Input or output format not provided |
+| `ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT` | Validation | No | Format pair not supported |
+| `ERR_INVALID_QUALITY` | Validation | Yes | Quality tier not recognized |
+| `WARN_DESTRUCTIVE` | Advisory | Yes | Command modifies files in-place |
+
+---
+
+## 12. Timeout & Retry Policy
+
+| Parameter | Default | Maximum | Rationale |
+|-----------|---------|---------|-----------|
+| Command generation | N/A | N/A | Synchronous; < 50ms |
+| Internal retries | Zero | Zero | Deterministic output |
+
+---
+
+## 13. Observability & Logging Schema
+
+### Log Entry Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "trace_id": "uuid",
+  "skill_name": "media-processing",
+  "contract_version": "2.0.0",
+  "execution_id": "uuid",
+  "timestamp": "ISO-8601",
+  "request_type": "string",
+  "task": "string",
+  "tool_selected": "string|null",
+  "destructive": "boolean",
+  "quality_parameter": "string|null",
+  "quality_value": "string|number|null",
+  "status": "success|error",
+  "error_code": "string|null",
+  "duration_ms": "number"
+}
+```
+
+### Required Log Points
+
+| Event | Log Level | Fields |
+|-------|-----------|--------|
+| Tool selected | INFO | task, tool_selected |
+| Command generated | INFO | task, tool_selected, destructive |
+| Destructive warning | WARN | command_template |
+| Quality recommendation | INFO | quality_parameter, quality_value |
+| Decision failed | ERROR | error_code, message |
+
+### Metrics
+
+| Metric | Type | Unit |
+|--------|------|------|
+| `mediaproc.decision.duration` | Histogram | ms |
+| `mediaproc.tool.distribution` | Counter | per tool |
+| `mediaproc.task.distribution` | Counter | per task |
+| `mediaproc.destructive.count` | Counter | per invocation |
+
+---
+
+## 14. Security & Trust Model
+
+### Data Handling
+
+- Media Processing does not access file contents.
+- No credentials, tokens, or PII handled.
+- Generated commands may reference user-supplied file paths.
+- File path sanitization is caller's responsibility.
+
+### Destructive Operation Safety
+
+| Rule | Enforcement |
+|------|-------------|
+| mogrify always flagged | `destructive: true` + warning |
+| Backup recommended | Warning message in output |
+| Test before batch | Guidance to test on single file |
+
+---
+
+## 15. Scalability Model
+
+| Dimension | Constraint | Mitigation |
+|-----------|-----------|------------|
+| Throughput | CPU-bound command generation | < 50ms; scales linearly |
+| Concurrency | Stateless invocations | Unlimited parallel |
+| Memory per invocation | < 1 MB | No accumulation |
+| Network | Zero network calls | No external dependency |
+
+---
+
+## 16. Concurrency Model
+
+Fully parallel. No shared state. No coordination required.
+
+---
+
+## 17. Resource Lifecycle Management
+
+All resources scoped to invocation. No persistent handles.
+
+---
+
+## 18. Performance Constraints
+
+| Operation | P50 Target | P99 Target | Hard Limit |
+|-----------|-----------|-----------|------------|
+| Tool selection | < 1 ms | < 5 ms | 20 ms |
+| Command generation | < 3 ms | < 10 ms | 30 ms |
+| Full pipeline (select + gen) | < 5 ms | < 15 ms | 50 ms |
+| Output size | ≤ 500 chars | ≤ 1,500 chars | 3,000 chars |
+
+---
+
+## 19. Operational Risks
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|-----------|--------|------------|
+| Tool version mismatch | Medium | Command syntax may differ | Document supported versions |
+| mogrify data loss | High if unflagged | Permanent file destruction | Always flag destructive |
+| Wrong CRF for content type | Low | Suboptimal quality/size | CRF guide with descriptions |
+| RMBG model deprecated | Low | Model unavailable | Track model availability |
+| ImageMagick policy restrictions | Medium | Operations blocked | Document policy.xml fix |
+
+---

+|---------------------|-----------|
+| Tool selection (3 tools) | Performance profiling (→ perf-optimizer) |
+| Command generation | Design assets (→ studio) |
+| Quality parameter guidance | Tool installation |
+| Destructive warnings | Command execution |
+
+**Expert decision skill:** Produces commands and recommendations. Does not execute.
+
+---
+
+## Tool Routing (Deterministic)
+
+| Task Type | Tool |
+|-----------|------|
+| Video / audio | **FFmpeg** |
+| Image | **ImageMagick** |
+| Background removal | **RMBG** |
+
+---
+
+## Video (FFmpeg)
+
+```bash
+# Convert with web optimization
+ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libx264 -crf 22 -movflags +faststart output.mp4
+
+# Extract audio
+ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -vn -c:a copy audio.m4a
+
+# Thumbnail at 5s
+ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -ss 00:00:05 -vframes 1 thumb.jpg
+```
+
+### CRF Quality Guide (Fixed)
+
+| CRF | Tier | Use Case |
+|-----|------|----------|
+| 18 | Visually lossless | Archival, source preservation |
+| 22 | Recommended | General purpose (default) |
+| 28 | Smaller file | Web delivery, previews |
+
+**Always include:** `-movflags +faststart` for MP4.
+
+---
+
+## Image (ImageMagick)
+
+```bash
+# Resize (maintain aspect)
+magick input.jpg -resize 800x600 output.jpg
+
+# Compress JPEG (quality 85, strip EXIF)
+magick input.jpg -quality 85 -strip output.jpg
+
+# ⚠️ Batch resize (DESTRUCTIVE — modifies in-place)
+mogrify -resize 800x -quality 85 *.jpg
+```
+
+**Default JPEG quality:** 85. **Always include:** `-strip` for EXIF removal.
+
+**⚠️ mogrify:** Always backup first. Test on single file before batch.
+
+---
+
+## Background Removal (RMBG)
+
+```bash
+rmbg input.jpg -o output.png            # Default model
+rmbg input.jpg -m briaai -o output.png   # Highest quality
+```
+
+### Model Selection (Fixed)
+
+| Priority | Model | Quality | Speed |
+|----------|-------|---------|-------|
+| Quality | **briaai** | Highest | Slow |
+| Speed | **u2netp** | Good | Fast |
+| Balanced | **modnet** | Balanced | Medium |
+
+---
+
+## Error Taxonomy
+
+| Code | Recoverable | Trigger |
+|------|-------------|---------|
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_TASK` | No | Task type not supported |
+| `ERR_MISSING_FORMAT` | Yes | Format not provided |
+| `ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT` | No | Format pair not supported |
+| `ERR_INVALID_QUALITY` | Yes | Quality tier not recognized |
+| `WARN_DESTRUCTIVE` | Yes | mogrify in-place modification |
+
+**Zero internal retries.** Deterministic; same context = same command.
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
+|---------|-------|
+| Use mogrify without backup | Backup originals first |
+| Skip `-movflags +faststart` for MP4 | Always include for web |
+| Use default CRF without thinking | Choose 18/22/28 based on use case |
+| Batch process without testing | Test on single file first |
+| Skip `-strip` for JPEG | Always strip EXIF metadata |
