beat-sync-montage

name: beat-sync-montage description: | Plan and build a finished beat-synced montage where cut placement serves the content, not just the metronome. Use for 卡点混剪, 卡点剪辑, 踩点视频, beat-sync montage, rhythm edit, 节奏剪辑, 音乐驱动剪辑, or when the user wants cuts that land on the beat.

Beat Sync Montage

Use this workflow when the edit should be driven by music. The failure mode to avoid is a metronome edit: every cut technically lands on a beat, and the result still feels mechanical, tiring, or unrelated to what is on screen.

This workflow decides what to cut and why. It does not re-explain the music tools — when you reach an execution step, follow music-intelligence for analyze_music, music_edit_plan, and sync_cuts_to_music. Load it there.

This is a OpenChatCut-native workflow. Use the current project, source assets, asset-frame inspection, AV/script context, and OpenChatCut editing tools.

When to switch workflows

• Beat-synced photos on a locked, empty track → music-intelligence handles this directly with music_image_plan. This workflow is for video montage.
• One long source cut to speech rhythm → long-video-to-shorts.
• Many clips packaged as highlights without music driving the cut → multi-clips-to-reels.
• N distinct beat-synced variants from one pool → batch-montage-variants, using this workflow for each cut.

Workflow

1. Confirm the track is on the timeline and identified. Read the music first: BPM, meter, sections, and energy shape. Use → or ; never request the CLAP embedding.
