Prompt 72 Process and review Only claimed

Commit per scene and decision log

Purpose
Protect approved work from "improvements" that quietly remove it, and keep long sessions from depending on memory.
Use when
After every approved scene and after every revision pass, in any video longer than two scenes.
Stage
Build and revise loop (small ritual, runs between 13, 14, 15, 16).
Inputs you must fill in
[slug], [scene or revision just approved].
Expected output
One local commit, a diff summary that names anything outside the request, before/after stills of the approved scene, and one line per decision in notes.md.
Why this exists
A rebuild from scratch on day two and a removed scene that shifted all later timing were real losses in one builder's long project. Evidence: only claimed (one detailed Reddit post and a corroborating reply). Finding F-C2.
Next prompt
Back to 14 or 13.

Prompt

Scene [N] / revision [n] of [slug] is approved. Do the checkpoint:

1. git diff --stat for the video folder. List every file changed, and name anything that changed outside what was requested. If something changed that I did not ask for, stop and tell me.
2. Re-render the previously approved stills of this scene (and one frame of every scene that uses a shared component you touched) and compare with the approved versions. Say what is identical and what moved.
3. Commit locally with a Conventional Commit message: feat([slug]): scene [N] approved, or fix([slug]): [what]. One logical change per commit. Do not push.
4. Append decisions to projects/[yyyy-mm-dd]-[slug]/notes.md, one line each, with the reason: for example "scene 3 hold is 45 f because the voice line ends at f 41".

Studio additions

Never push or create a GitHub repo (CLAUDE.md rule 6). Source: process after u/TheHol1day and u/darrirl (r/ClaudeAI). Our wording.
