keryx reel duplicate

Copy a reel workspace's authoring inputs to a new slug, starting the copy as a draft.

Usage

keryx reel duplicate <source-slug> <destination-slug>

Both arguments are positional and required; omitting either gives missing argument (usage: keryx reel duplicate <src> <dst>).

What gets copied, and what does not

Copied Skipped
workspace.yaml (with the new slug) vo/takes/
storyboard.json, source.md, direction.md cards/takes/
selected vo/NN.mp3, cards/NN.*, music.mp3, cover.png music/takes/
the locked block .cache/
the rendered mp4, under its old name a pre-0060 social.json, if one is still there

The posting record is not the reel's to copy. Since spec 0060 it belongs to the article, in the bundle's social.json; the copy is a reel the article has no copy for yet, so it starts as a draft and inherits no approvals or posting results.

The candidate takes and the generation cache are skipped because they are regenerable, so a duplicate is small.

$ keryx reel duplicate my-post my-post-b
duplicated my-post -> my-post-b (posting status reset)

The lock state comes with it

Assets marked reviewed with reel lock stay locked in the copy, because the asset they approve was copied too. Unlock anything you intend to re-roll.

When it refuses

Situation Error
The destination slug is not lowercase kebab-case invalid slug (want lowercase kebab-case)
The source does not exist workspace not found
The destination already exists workspace already exists
