What the film sets up, shows, and resolves

These are exact analytical ranges on the source clock, not frame-accurate cut boundaries. A beat may contain several shots. Images are sampled; no continuous viewing or listening pass is claimed.

Email examples introduce a shorter handoff claim.

Sampled visual. Four finished email columns and placeholder templates.

Edit observation. Populated and placeholder layouts provide a visible contrast.

Spreadsheet content becomes a browsable use-case library.

Sampled visual. Spreadsheet, category tiles, expanded prompt drawer.

Edit observation. Dense rows become filtered cards and one detail panel.
