## 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.

## Recreating this video

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Adapt the contrast between nearly black foreground shapes and softly textured skies to a story about discovery or renewal. Use one bright visual motif across several locations, keeping buildings simple and trees slender so the motif remains dominant. Give each setting a distinct framing device while retaining the same violet, peach and cream palette.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

A quiet winter village beneath a glowing comet, seen among bare trees and dark rooftops.

- Color: Deep navy, violet, and muted plum skies contrast with warm peach and cream light.
- Type: Soft-edged, stylized digital illustration with a subdued, storybook feel.
- Framing: Dark foreground silhouettes and tree trunks frame small houses beneath a broad, clouded sky; some views include a dark-paned window.
- Structure: A nighttime village scene built from layered sky, clouds, rooftops, trees, and foreground shadows, with the bright comet as a focal point.
