Actor-focused multi-frame temporal scan showed the correct action phase
(left woman back to camera, right woman in profile) at t=2618.8s vs
the previously used 2615.5s where both women were in different positions.

Template scan of entire source found the knife/letter-opener close-up at
t=130-133s in the film (scene 17, 127.76-133.04s). Previous wrong match was
pointing at scene 309 (the coffee/window scene) for both shots because the
strong continuity seed from beat 14 overwhelmed the global search.
Two-segment provisional match written to cache manually:
seg[0] knife: scene 17 in=130.32s dur=2.80s score=0.72 (confirmed)
seg[1] coffee: scene 309 in=2615.52s dur=1.28s score=0.38 (provisional)

Beat 15 (4.40 s, two women + coffee mugs + snowy window) was matched as a
single 4-second clip at scene 309 in=2626.93 s, score 0.531. The trailer
beat actually contains two shots split by an internal cut at offset 3.12 s,
and the previous match approximated both with the same continuous span,
landing at the wrong phase for the second sub-shot.
After `match --beat 15 --vision` with the per-shot pipeline:
Shot 1 (offset 0.32, dur 2.80 s): scene 309 in=2626.929 score 0.531
Shot 2 (offset 3.12, dur 1.20 s): scene 309 in=2607.254 score 0.608
Same scene, but the second shot is now placed earlier in the source where
the leopard-print woman enters the frame — the right phase for that sub-
shot. Other beats unchanged (0 diffs verified against bak).

Bug: the report rendered every preview clip at most 3 s, so any beat longer
than 3 s (e.g. beat 02 at 8.56 s) only got a fragment in the cutter report
and looked wrong. The hard 3 s cap was an early prototype constant that
silently truncated normal-length beats.
Trailer clip is now the full beat duration so the cutter sees the entire
reference beat. Source clip is the full matched duration (may be shorter
than the beat when the match drops before the beat ends — that's correct,
the cutter needs to see exactly the matched span).
A 30 s safety cap stays as a guard against runaway durations but it should
never trip on a normal trailer beat.
All existing clips were dropped and re-rendered so the report on disk
matches the new logic.

- cli.py auto-regen now produces video clips on every match (no opt-in
flag). Best presentation comes first; speed cost (~minutes per match)
is accepted.
- output/cutter_stills/ and output/cutter_clips/ are no longer gitignored.
All 45 stills and 45 short MP4 previews are committed alongside the
CUTTER_REPORT.{md,html} so the remote repo always shows the current
state — even when the report files are inspected without running the
generator.
- Other output/ contents (FCPXML, EDL, debug folders, HTML report) stay
ignored.
