Full prompt released: orchestrating Claude Code to direct its own animation with parallel agents

Developer Daniel Mcateer shared the full prompt behind an animated short generated by Opus 5.5 in Claude Code. With 'ultracode' reasoning enabled, Claude acted as an orchestrator: a first workflow ran a 'pre-production' writers' room, then parallel agents built characters and sets before compositing an action-style animation. The prompt anchors style by passing a local reference video path.
