✂️ Design-Engineer Split — Migration Plan
Current State
All 6 active design-engineer threads are video-related:
- 📚 Explainer video series
- ⏳ Avatar — YT needs Workspace admin
- 📊 Companies by industry dataset
- 🧬 GoL series iteration
- 🎬 Territory Capture series
- 🏗️ Day 5 marble short
This confirms the split is overdue.

Execution Plan (ordered to minimize downtime)
Phase 1 — Prep (no restart)
- Write all videographer workspace files to a staging dir (
/tmp/videographer-staging/)- SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, MINDSET.md, HEARTBEAT.md, TOOLS.md, MEMORY.md
- Write updated design-engineer SOUL.md and MINDSET.md (remove video scope)
- Prepare videographer
memory/files
Phase 2 — Create mindset (ONE restart)
mindsets createname=videographer, description=Python procedural video generation...- This creates: Discord forum, webhook, agent config, binding, workspace dir, triggers restart
Phase 3 — Post-restart file migration
- Copy staging files into new
workspace-videographer/ - Move video directories from design-engineer → videographer:
youtube-gol/,daily-video-series/,explainer-series/,dom-voice-samples/VOICE-CLONE.md,waymo-lofi-test.mp3, avatar/yt screenshots
- Move
memory/2026-04-05.md→ videographer memory - Copy
memory/2026-04-03.md→ videographer memory (keep in both) - Update design-engineer SOUL.md and MINDSET.md (remove video refs)
- Recover dead design-engineer threads (they stay in #design-engineer forum)
Thread Note
Existing threads stay in #design-engineer — Discord threads can't be moved between forums. New video work goes to #videographer. The 6 video threads will naturally close as work completes.
New Videographer Scope
Python procedural video generation (pymunk, PIL), ffmpeg encoding, daily video series (Game of Life, marble races, territory captures, bar chart races, explainers), YouTube upload pipeline, ElevenLabs music/audio, avatar/branding.
Updated Design Engineer Scope
Websites, blogs, Next.js, Tailwind, web prototypes, justin.vin, known.life, seed.show frontend, blog posts, interactive content, Chrome extensions, Cloudflare Workers apps.
