First, summarize what it does, its dependencies, license status if identifiable, and any risks. Show the exact files you propose to add under .agents/skills/action-choreography-camera-logic/. Do not write files or run scripts until I approve.

After I approve, install the complete skill folder, including required referenced files, into that project location. Verify it is discoverable, then tell me its actual invocation name and how to use it. Do not claim it is installed until you have verified it.

Action Choreography Camera Logic

Use this skill when motion clarity matters more than random spectacle.

Core Rules

  • Define who attacks, who reacts, where momentum travels, and where the camera sits.
  • Preserve left-right travel, eyelines, and attack direction unless the disorientation is intentional.
  • Tie each camera move to one tactical reason: reveal threat, follow force, absorb impact, or trap the subject.

Coverage Rules

  • Alternate orientation, impact, and recovery beats.
  • Use wider shots to establish geography, then medium/close beats for impact detail.
  • If the sequence is chaotic, keep one stable anchor: axis, landmark, or hero movement direction.

Transformation / VFX Beats

  • Break the event into readable phases: onset, spread, rupture, aftermath.
  • Let the camera either orbit the change or lock down and let the body distort inside frame.

Avoid

  • contradictory camera verbs
  • impact with no anticipation or recovery
  • unreadable geography
