Robot Reel now records the official Microduck walking policy, a repeatable braking comparison, and editable arm shots—and exports a browser replay with every film.

  • Microduck: official pinned ONNX policy at 50 Hz; 300 simulation frames, 14 joint channels, policy actions and model references. XML PD actuator approximation, not BAM or real hardware.
  • Automotive: identical 8 m/s initial speed and obstacle, two scripted brake thresholds. Late braking records contact; early braking stops with an 8.661 m gap in this 1D surrogate. No driving foundation model was run.
  • Interactive replay: shot navigation, single-frame stepping, joint/reference plots, timestamp links and local-file playback.
  • Arm remixes: download a JSON plan from the browser and record it with --shots.
  • Evidence checks: required hashes plus action/frame, policy/frame and contact-summary agreement.

Validation: 18 Python tests and 8 browser tests; real captures and full video decoding; cold-cache official asset download; wheel contents and installed template; existing-pack re-edit smoke test.

Microduck films are 15 seconds; braking films are 17 seconds; studio films are 31 seconds. Each evidence ZIP contains its local replay page, original simulator recordings, traces, provenance and license notices.
