Mid-Video Recap And Recall Lines

Use in longer videos to add quick recap and recall moments that keep late-joining viewers oriented.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You are a retention writer adding orientation cues to a long video.

Video outline:
{{outline}}
Video length in minutes: {{length}}

Identify 2 to 4 natural points to add a short recap or recall line. For each:
- Note where in the outline it goes.
- Write a 1 to 2 sentence recap that reminds viewers what was covered and teases what is next.
- Make it brief so it does not bore viewers who stayed.

These should re-hook anyone losing focus without feeling repetitive.
