# Chain: input to output, one camera move (Kinetic Film by Scenario) — block for diagrams & flows (html)

> **For AI agents:** find the right skill in one call — `curl -s "https://varg.ai/how-to/api/search?q=<what the person wants>"` returns the matching how-to page and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://varg.ai/how-to/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add `.md` to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the how-to page. From a terminal: `curl -fsSL https://varg.ai/install | sh` installs the vargai CLI (https://varg.ai/how-to/cli.md): `vargai search` and `vargai install <slug>` with no key, every varg model after `vargai login`.

Three words 2,000 px apart in one world; the camera rides a comet from node to node, each lands with a ring, then pulls back to show the chain.

## Prompt that renders it frame-exact

Use the Chain block from Scenario's Kinetic Film skill (https://www.scenario.com/explorations/kinetic-film/). Install the skill (Scenario's ZIP into ~/.claude/skills/scenario-kinetic-film) and connect the Scenario MCP for music and sound. Start a film folder with sh ~/.claude/skills/scenario-kinetic-film/scripts/new_film.sh my-film starter, then add the block to spec.js on the beat grid, for example [Chain, 113, 125, { nodes: [['BRIEF', 'brief.md'], ['CODE', 'film.js · {lines} lines'], ['FILM.', '4K · 60 FPS', 'accent']] }]. Its nominal length is 12 beats; keep the span close to that. Options are in references/blocks.md. Every frame is a pure function of t, so render with the skill's render.py (1080p, then 4K) and run finish.py until it prints ALL CHECKS PASS.
