-             1. **PREREQUISITE CHECK:**
-                - Check if `{output_folder}/truth_dossier.md` exists.
-                - If NOT: Display "❌ Missing: truth_dossier.md - Run /investigator first to create it."
-                - If YES: Proceed.
-             2. **SYNC SETTINGS:** Read `_video_nut/config.yaml`. Identify `{video_format}`, `{audio_language}`, and `{target_duration}`.
-             3. Read `{output_folder}/truth_dossier.md`.
-             4. **OPTIONAL: Read `{output_folder}/prompt.md`** if exists for additional context.
-             5. **DURATION-BASED WORD COUNT CALCULATION (CRITICAL):**
-                - **Speaking Rate:** 130-150 words per minute average
-                - **MINIMUM DURATION: 15 minutes = 2000 words (NEVER GO BELOW THIS)**
-                - Calculate target word count:
-                  | Duration | Words (min) | Words (max) |
-                  |----------|-------------|-------------|
-                  | 15 min   | 1950        | 2250        |
-                  | 20 min   | 2600        | 3000        |
-                  | 30 min   | 3900        | 4500        |
-                  | 45 min   | 5850        | 6750        |
-                  | 60 min   | 7800        | 9000        |
-                - **Display target:** "📊 Target: {duration} min = {word_count} words"
-             6. **RESEARCH ENHANCEMENT PHASE:**
-                - If the Dossier references specific YouTube videos that could provide additional context or quotes, use `python {video_nut_root}/tools/downloaders/caption_reader.py --url "{YOUTUBE_URL}"` to extract the actual content.
-                - Integrate relevant quotes or insights from video transcripts into the narrative.
-             7. **STYLE ARCHITECTURE:**
-                - **The Language:** Write the script entirely in **{audio_language}**.
-                - **The Length:** Target exactly **{word_count} words** to hit the {target_duration} minute mark.
-                - **Format-Specific Style:**
-                  - **If [1] Investigation/Case Study:** Use 'The Hook-and-Build' method. Fast, data-dense, objective but sharp. 30-45 min target.
-                  - **If [2] News Explainer:** Use 'The Inverted Pyramid'. Lead with the most shocking news, then context. 15-20 min target.
-                  - **If [3] Podcast Discussion:** Use 'The Narrative Conversation'. Slower, includes "Host reactions", "Did you know?" moments. 60+ min target. Write for two voices (Host & Expert).
-                  - **If [4] Documentary:** Use 'The Cinematic Journey'. Visual storytelling, ambient pauses, emotional crescendos. 45-60 min target.
-                  - **If [5] Video Essay:** Use 'The Philosophical Journey'. Deep metaphors, slow-burn tension, high emotion. 20-30 min target.
-             8. **THE SCRIPT BEAT-SHEET (Word Budget Allocation):**
-                - **[HOOK] - 10% of word count:** Opening to grab attention in first 30 seconds
-                - **[BRIDGE] - 5%:** Transition that sets up the main story
-                - **[CONTEXT] - 15%:** Background information
-                - **[MEAT] - 40%:** Core investigation findings, chain of evidence
-                - **[HUMAN BEAT] - 15%:** The "Silent Victim" story with maximum empathy
-                - **[VERDICT] - 10%:** Conclusions and implications
-                - **[CALL TO ACTION] - 5%:** What viewers should think/do
-             9. **VOICE CUE SYSTEM (CRITICAL FOR AI VOICE CLONING):**
-                - Add voice cues throughout the script for AI voice cloning:
-                  - `(pause 1s)` or `(pause 2s)` or `(pause 3s)` - For dramatic effect or breath
-                  - `(emphasis)` ... `(end emphasis)` - Words to stress
-                  - `(slow)` ... `(normal speed)` - Pacing changes
-                  - `(angry tone)` or `(sad tone)` or `(shocked tone)` - Emotional shifts
-                  - `(whisper)` ... `(normal voice)` - Volume changes
-                  - `(questioning)` - For rhetorical questions
-                - **IMPORTANT:** Voice cues don't count toward word count!
-                - **Example:**
-                  ```
-                  [HOOK]
-                  (pause 1s)
-                  (emphasis) 2,471 crore rupees. (end emphasis) (pause 2s)
-                  (angry tone) That's what companies under investigation donated to the ruling party.
-                  while ordinary citizens can't even get a hearing. (end tone)
-                  (pause 1s) (questioning) Is this the democracy we voted for?
-                  ```
-             10. **SAVE TWO FILES:**
-                 - **`{output_folder}/voice_script.md`** - Pure narration with voice cues. NO visual directions. Ready for AI voice cloning.
-                   - Include section markers: [HOOK], [BRIDGE], [CONTEXT], [MEAT], [HUMAN BEAT], [VERDICT], [CTA]
-                   - Include word count at end: "**Total Words:** {count}"
-                 - **`{output_folder}/narrative_script.md`** - Full script with section markers for Director reference.
-             11. **VALIDATION:**
-                 - Count final word count (excluding voice cues)
-                 - If below minimum (2000 words for 15 min), ADD MORE CONTENT
-                 - Display: "✅ Script complete: {word_count} words for {duration} minutes"

-      1. **SELF-REVIEW**: Ask yourself:
-         - Is the hook shocking enough for the first 5 seconds?
-         - Is there a REAL human story with a NAME and FACE?
-         - Are there any claims without strong evidence?
-         - Did I address counter-arguments?
-         - Is the HUMAN BEAT section emotional enough?
-         - Is the ending call-to-action memorable?
-      
-      2. **GENERATE 10 QUESTIONS**: Display gaps you identified:
-         ```
-         📋 SELF-IDENTIFIED GAPS (10 Areas That Could Strengthen This Script):
-         
-         1. Is the hook strong enough? Could it be more dramatic?
-         2. Do we have a victim name for the HUMAN BEAT section?
-         3. Are there quotes we could add for credibility?
-         4. Is the BRIDGE section clear enough?
-         5. Did I address what critics would say?
-         6. Is the pacing right for {duration} minutes?
-         7. Are there facts that need more evidence?
-         8. Could we add a prediction/warning section?
-         9. Is the VERDICT balanced or too one-sided?
-         10. Does the CTA inspire action?

+                - **Example:**
+                  ```
+                  [HOOK]
+                  (pause 1s)
+                  (emphasis) 2,471 crore rupees. (end emphasis) (pause 2s)
+                  (angry tone) That's what companies under investigation donated to the ruling party.
+                  while ordinary citizens can't even get a hearing. (end tone)
+                  (pause 1s) (questioning) Is this the democracy we voted for?
+                  ```
+             10. **SAVE TWO FILES:**
+                 - **`{output_folder}/voice_script.md`** - Pure narration with voice cues. NO visual directions. Ready for AI voice cloning.
+                   - Include section markers: [HOOK], [BRIDGE], [CONTEXT], [MEAT], [HUMAN BEAT], [VERDICT], [CTA]
+                   - Include word count at end: "**Total Words:** {count}"
+                 - **`{output_folder}/narrative_script.md`** - Full script with section markers for Director reference.
+             11. **VALIDATION:**
+                 - Count final word count (excluding voice cues)
+                 - If below minimum (2000 words for 15 min), ADD MORE CONTENT
+                 - Display: "✅ Script complete: {word_count} words for {duration} minutes"

+    <self-review>
+      After completing your script, BEFORE allowing user to proceed:
+      
+      1. **SELF-REVIEW**: Ask yourself:
+         - Is the hook shocking enough for the first 5 seconds?
+         - Is there a REAL human story with a NAME and FACE?
+         - Are there any claims without strong evidence?
+         - Did I address counter-arguments?
+         - Is the HUMAN BEAT section emotional enough?
+         - Is the ending call-to-action memorable?
+      
+      2. **GENERATE 10 QUESTIONS**: Display gaps you identified:
+         ```
+         📋 SELF-IDENTIFIED GAPS (10 Areas That Could Strengthen This Script):
+         
+         1. Is the hook strong enough? Could it be more dramatic?
+         2. Do we have a victim name for the HUMAN BEAT section?
+         3. Are there quotes we could add for credibility?
+         4. Is the BRIDGE section clear enough?
+         5. Did I address what critics would say?
+         6. Is the pacing right for {duration} minutes?
+         7. Are there facts that need more evidence?
+         8. Could we add a prediction/warning section?
+         9. Is the VERDICT balanced or too one-sided?
+         10. Does the CTA inspire action?
