# Round 1: Initial Architecture Review

You are serving as a technical consultant for the Recoil Studios visual pipeline project.

The builder (Claude, an AI assistant) has designed and implemented a production-grade visual pipeline for AI-generated vertical microdrama series. The pipeline has been in production for months and has generated thousands of frames and hundreds of video clips.

A new use case has emerged: **client video projects** (corporate/commercial work) that need video generation but don't fit the scripted series workflow. The question is how to extend the pipeline to support this.

Your job is to:

1. **Review the current architecture** — identify which components are truly reusable vs. coupled to the series workflow
2. **Evaluate the three options** (Fork, Wrap, Build New) with concrete pros/cons
3. **Answer the 6 specific questions** at the end of the context bundle
4. **Propose a concrete architecture** — specific files, classes, and integration points
5. **Identify risks** — what could go wrong with each approach? Where are the hidden coupling points?

Be brutally honest. This is a production system. The solo developer needs to ship a client video NOW while not creating tech debt that will haunt future projects.

Focus especially on:
- The **sequence** as a first-class concept (vs individual shots)
- How **grid exploration** should be formalized
- Whether the **ExecutionStore state machine** needs a client-mode subset
- The **Production Console** integration story
