Define the workflow learning job
Treat “highlight editor” as a search job to investigate, not as proof that a SEELE feature exists. First turn the query into a repeatable sequence with explicit inputs, review points, and a reversible handoff. Write the intended audience, source owner, desired change, protected details, reviewer, and delivery condition before selecting any interface or model. That brief keeps the evaluation specific and makes an unsupported assumption visible early. While evidence is current, preserve the handoff draft, and ask the creative lead to record revision intent before the delivery pass.

Prepare inputs for clips, shorts, and highlights
For this topic, assemble the authorized long-form source, target channel, required context, duration range, and caption needs. Record where each source came from, who may use it, and what must remain unchanged. Use a small representative asset for the first pass, keep the original untouched, and define a fallback route so experimentation cannot silently become the production master. While evidence is current, preserve the delivery checklist, and ask the source custodian to record visible continuity before the evidence refresh.
- Confirm ownership, consent, and allowed reuse For a reversible workflow, preserve the review copy, and ask the release approver to record human approval before the source comparison.
- Preserve an untouched source and version history For a reversible workflow, preserve the test fixture, and ask the brand reviewer to record source fidelity before the controlled revision.
- Name the reviewer and acceptance condition For a reversible workflow, preserve the source ledger, and ask the claims reviewer to record evidence freshness before the source comparison.

Test observable controls for highlight editor
A bounded evaluation should inspect moment selection, context preservation, reframing, pacing, captions, and the final call to action. Change one meaningful variable at a time and record the date, workspace, account context, input, setting, result, and failure. Topic selection can prioritize the question, but it does not establish availability, quality, speed, licensing, or a supported SEELE workflow. For a reversible workflow, preserve the decision history, and ask the factual editor to record identity consent before the controlled revision.

Review evidence, safety, and policy boundaries
A compelling excerpt must not distort the speaker's meaning or imply automatic publishing or platform approval. Use only authorized media, separate observed behavior from marketing language, and check current first-party documentation for any product-specific claim. For third-party products, competitors, plans, models, and platform rules, attach a verification date and primary source; an absent statement is an evidence gap rather than proof of a limitation. For the named reviewer, preserve the claim inventory, and ask the factual editor to record evidence freshness before the delivery pass.

Approve a reversible production handoff
Before advancing “highlight editor”, compare each excerpt with its source, check that edits preserve meaning, and validate current channel specifications. Document remaining manual work, unresolved evidence, destination requirements, and the person accepting the result. The handoff should preserve sources and test notes, allow correction, and avoid promises about output quality, turnaround, business performance, publishing, or access that the evidence does not support. At handoff, preserve the claim inventory, and ask the continuity editor to record temporal order before the production checkpoint.
