## Description

Turn one pool of existing project media into a batch of distinct, publishable montage cuts instead of a single hero edit. Use for batch montage, one-source-many-outputs, 一源多出, 批量混剪, 批量出片, 矩阵号, 多账号分发, variant batches, deduped cuts, 去重变体, 防搬运, or when the user asks for N different versions of the same footage.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# Batch Montage Variants

Use this workflow when the user wants **many** finished cuts from the same media pool, matrix accounts, A/B hook testing, platform variants, or daily batch output. Each output must satisfy the agreed mode: structural differentiation, a controlled hook test, or a platform adaptation.

This is an OpenChatCut-native workflow. Use the current project, source assets, asset-frame inspection, AV/script context, and built-in editing tools. Editing imported media requires no external service. Use external sources or processing pipelines only when explicitly requested by the user.

## When to switch workflows

- One hero edit from many clips → **Multi Clips to Reels**. Do not use this skill to make a single cut.
- One long source defining a story → **Long Video to Shorts**.
- N distinct outputs from a shared pool → this skill.

Tell the user when you switch, and say why.
