## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Prompt

```text
Cinematic space journey, ultra-realistic, IMAX quality, 8K.

Opening: slow push-in from the dark side of Earth at night, city lights glowing like golden veins, a thin blue line of atmosphere on the horizon as the sun rises behind the planet, dramatic lens flare.

Camera accelerates past the Moon, gliding low over grey craters with long sharp shadows, then shoots outward toward Saturn — massive rings filling the frame, ice particles sparkling in sunlight, the camera flies between the ring layers.

Transition: the camera dives into a vibrant nebula — swirling clouds of magenta, teal and deep orange gas, newborn stars glowing inside, volumetric light rays piercing through dust.

Finale: a supermassive black hole with a glowing accretion disk, light bending around the event horizon (gravitational lensing like Interstellar), camera slowly orbits it as time seems to slow down.

Style: Hans Zimmer-style epic atmosphere, deep blacks, high contrast, anamorphic lens, smooth drone-like camera movement, volumetric lighting, photorealistic, no text, no people.
