What it does

Overlay doctrine for captions in HyperFrames videos, the caption MODEL (drop / rail / embed) and the rule that captions are an OVERLAY composited on top of the film, never a reserved bottom band you shift content up to avoid. Load when adding captions/subtitles to a talking-head or launch video, when deciding whether a phrase should be dropped, ride the verbatim rail, or be promoted to a scarce embedded climax, when laying out a composition that will carry captions (do NOT reserve a keep-out band), or when centering a composition on the true frame center under captions. Applies ON TOP of the `/hyperframes` skill's references/captions.md.

Captions Overlay Doctrine

Overlay doctrine, supplements the upstream /hyperframes skill's references/captions.md. Applies ON TOP of it; do not expect it folded into the upstream skill.

Two ideas combine here. First, the caption model, every spoken phrase is drop, rail, or embed, and embed is the scarce earned peak, not the default. Second, the overlay law, a caption line is composited ON TOP of the film as an overlay; it is NOT a reserved zone, so you never shift content up or leave a dead band to "make room" for it. The two reinforce each other: because captions ride as an overlay (the verbatim rail in front, the occasional embed behind the subject), the composition keeps its full frame and centers on the true vertical center.

Every spoken phrase is one of three things:
