calesthio e5367f7d66 feat(character-animation): add local rigged character pipeline

New beta pipeline for reusable cartoon characters with SVG rigs, pose
libraries, action timelines, and Canvas/Remotion/HyperFrames rendering.

- pipeline_defs/character-animation.yaml: 11-stage manifest
- skills/pipelines/character-animation/: 11 stage director skills
- tools/character/: BaseTool implementations for char design, rigging,
  pose libraries, action timelines, previews, and QA
- schemas/artifacts/{character_design,rig_plan,pose_library,
  action_timeline,character_qa_report}.schema.json: canonical artifacts
- schemas/artifacts/scene_plan.schema.json: extended for character-led
  scenes
- .agents/skills/{canvas-procedural-animation,character-animation-qa,
  character-rigging,pose-library-design,svg-character-animation}/:
  Layer 3 vendor knowledge
- AGENT_GUIDE / PROJECT_CONTEXT / README / ARCHITECTURE / PROVIDERS:
  surface the new pipeline and its capability family
- tools/video/hyperframes_compose.py: SVG character rig support
- tests/contracts/test_character_animation_pipeline.py: contract tests

Executive Producer - Character Animation Pipeline

When To Use

Use this pipeline when the requested deliverable depends on reusable animated characters: cartoon shorts, mascot explainers, music-led character scenes, dialogue between simple characters, or reference-inspired local animation.

Do not use this pipeline for one-off motion graphics with no acting. Route those to animation. Do not use it for avatar presenter lip-sync. Route that to avatar-spokesperson.

Contract

The pipeline produces local, deterministic character animation. It does not silently substitute still-image motion for acting. If the character motion cannot be built with the available rigs, assets, or runtime, surface a blocker.

Stage Order

research - understand reference, technique, and feasibility.
proposal - present concepts, runtime options, cost, music plan, sample plan.
script - write action-friendly beats and dialogue/narration.
character_design - define characters, silhouettes, emotions, actions.
rig_plan - define parts, pivots, layers, constraints, poses.
scene_plan - map story beats to character scenes.
assets - produce or source character parts, backgrounds, props, audio.
edit - compile timed action timeline.
compose - render through the approved runtime and run QA.
publish - package the final output.

Governance Rules

Run registry preflight before proposal.
If both Remotion and HyperFrames are available, present both before locking render_runtime.
Produce a 10-15 second sample before full asset generation.
Character differences belong in rig data, not one-off code paths.
Every generated or runtime-authored asset must list Layer 3 skills read.
Use character_animation_reviewer plus final final_review before delivery.

Send-Back Triggers

character_design lacks required actions or emotional range.
rig_plan lacks pivots for moving parts.
pose_library has no readable acting poses.
action_timeline has actions that cannot be rendered by the rig.
Compose used a runtime not approved in proposal.
