Owner

Adds tooling-terminal-recording, covering how to produce a terminal GIF or video without a live take.

What it carries

VHS for deterministic commands, where a wrong pause is an edit to a number rather than another take.
asciinema with -i 2 for anything whose timing cannot be predicted, which includes every agent session. The idle cap means the operator does not have to be quick or uninterrupted while recording.
Measure the widest line first, because that number dictates Set Width, Set FontSize, and whether the result is a usable aspect ratio at all.
Extract a frame before calling a render good. Wrapping, scrolled-off content, and mid-token cut damage are all invisible in the exit code.
macOS Preview steps an animated GIF frame by frame, so rendered output goes to a browser.

Provenance

Written from a session that hit each failure it warns about. A 196-character agent-compose catalog roles line produced either mid-word wrapping or an unusable 6.7:1 strip, and two renders were reported as fine on exit code alone before a frame was ever looked at.

No docs/FEATURES.md entry: one ordinary skill is not a major shipped capability, matching the existing tooling-ffmpeg and tooling-warp precedent.

pre-commit run --files clean, including skill conventions, documentation layout, and seed_skills_data.py in sync with skill frontmatter.

Records terminal output as GIF or video without a live take. VHS for
deterministic commands, asciinema with an idle cap for sessions whose
timing cannot be predicted.

Written from a session that hit each failure it warns about: unmeasured
line width producing mid-word wrapping, a 196-character command yielding
an unusable 6.7:1 strip, and a render reported as good on exit code alone
without a frame ever being looked at.
