seedance-sequence

Use this when the user's idea is larger than one reliable generation, when connected clips are requested, or when the user says continue, extend, next part, part two, next scene, or make it longer. Plan globally, generate locally: the skill plans the whole story, but compiles only the next unresolved clip.

Load [ref:sequence-project-state], [ref:continuation-handoff], [ref:prompt-compiler], [ref:surface-prompt-profiles], [ref:event-density], and [ref:continuity-qc]. Load [ref:reference-transfer-contract] when references are present and [ref:dense-storyboard-mode] when the request contains many shots or animation panels. Load [ref:directing-engine] to set one directorial voice for the whole story and plan the long-form spine so the look is authored by one hand across every clip. For a user's first multi-clip project, [ref:sequence-worked-trace] walks the whole loop once - plan, deviation, reconciliation, chain cap, re-anchor, resume.

Intent

The user is trying to make a film, not a pile of prompts. This skill protects the thread of action across generations: what already happened, what is happening now, what must not happen yet, and what the accepted footage actually shows. The plan is global; the prompt is local.

Sequence Classifier

Classify as sequence_project when the story exceeds the verified active-surface duration, asks for multiple connected clips, contains several narrative beats, is a film scene, ad, campaign, music sequence, action scene, dialogue scene, or uses continue/extend/next-part language. Otherwise classify as standalone_clip and return to the concise prompt path.

For every request also classify:

• generation input mode: T2V, I2V, V2V, R2V, FLF2V, edit, native extend when verified for the active surface, or troubleshoot;
• sequence relation: standalone, sequence_first_clip, seamless_continuation, intentional_next_shot, bridge_between_known_states, repair_tail, or reanchor_after_drift;
• shot structure: compact_single_take, phased_single_take, dense_multishot, first_last_frame_transition, or video_edit_contract;
• medium grammar: live_action, 3d_animation, 2d_animation, product_or_object, or another supported medium;
• surface profile: exact reference-tag convention, verified duration range, prompt budget, supported reference roles, timeline syntax, edit/extension availability, audio behavior, and constraints.
