Research-Augmented Workflow

Generate a cited research packet from Wikipedia and optional source URLs:

python -m scriptwriters.cli research gen --query "post quantum encryption" --url https://example.com/article

Generate research, then write the three-host script and render Bark audio:

python -m scriptwriters.cli research build --query "Windows App SDK" --backend bark

For quick Bark previews, cap the render to one spoken beat and short semantic output:

python -m scriptwriters.cli research build --packet out/research/windows-app-sdk/research_packet.json --backend bark --max-beats 1 --bark-semantic-tokens 20

Check local dependencies before a long run:

python -m scriptwriters.cli doctor

Current Transformers releases require torch>=2.6 to load Bark .bin weights safely.
