Headline: "Hermes is editing in DaVinci Resolve." Below it, a Resolve timeline fills with clip after clip as the playhead moves right.

The view pulls back to a Hermes terminal beside Resolve. The request reads "Cut the Lisbon clips to script.md, add track.wav, render a QuickTime."

Caption: "From one message." Hermes checks the live Resolve Studio connection and scans the media folder: 9 clips, 1 track.

Caption: "It shows the plan first." An "Edit plan" card marked "dry run" lists 9 shots cut to the beat of track.wav, 4 markers and a QuickTime H.264 render.

The card ends with "Nothing changes until you confirm." The user types "go" and the timeline steps start.

Caption: "Then builds the rough cut." The Resolve timeline holds a row of clips over a music track, with markers on the ruler, while the viewer plays street, camera and sunset shots.
- At 0:15
Caption: "And renders the final." The Render Queue shows Job 1 rendering while a yellow tram plays in the viewer, then reaches 100% and "Done".
- At 0:19
Caption: "New Hermes plugin: DaVinci Resolve." The render job turns green with "Render complete".
- At 0:20
The view pulls back: every step in the Hermes terminal is checked, ending with a render to Lisbon_RoughCut_v1.mov.

End card: "@HermesWatcher" on a dark background.
