Plan Video

Overview

This orchestrator sequences foundation skills to produce a complete video plan: researched titles, thumbnail concepts, hook strategies, and a content outline. It manages the user selection workflow between steps but delegates all content generation to specialized skills.

Core Principle: This is a thin orchestrator. All content generation goes through foundation skills — that's where the proven patterns, formulas, and quality logic live. This skill manages workflow sequence, user decisions, and plan file assembly only.

How Reference Delegation Works

Each step below invokes a foundation skill that owns its own reference files. When you invoke creator-stack:title, it loads references/youtube-title-formulas.md from its own directory. When you invoke creator-stack:thumbnail, it loads references/thumbnail-formulas.md from its own directory. You don't need to manage these paths — just invoke the skill and provide context.
