Everything you need to use Content Machine.
Content Machine is now a short-form video skill pack. The primary path
is repo-local skills and flows for Claude Code, Codex CLI, and similar
coding agents. Runtime scripts still exist as optional support
surfaces. The old CLI-first guides now live under
archive/legacy-cli/.
- Agent Harness Install — copy-paste
install prompt and materialized

The split-screen page is a showcase for the supported hybrid mode, not
the generic default for every Reddit request.

showcase/README.md: visual map for low-attention scanning.EXAMPLES.md: status summary plus curated runnable walkthroughs.examples/README.md: categorized file index for all example pages.
