Documentation

README

Excerpt

Thumbnail Factory

A systematic pipeline for producing scroll-stopping YouTube thumbnails for a mascot-driven channel. It encodes the formula, the working prompt recipe, the hook-pattern playbook, and the hard safety rules learned in production.

Built for anonymous / faceless channels: the mascot is the face, so the covers stay consistent without ever putting a person on screen.

Anonymity rule: never put the creator's real name, personal handle, or likeness on a thumbnail. If the channel is anonymous, the mascot is the identity — breaking that once is not reversible.
