# Director → catalog block map (reuse-first)

The Builder's **default is to compose existing HF catalog blocks, not hand-author.** `npx hyperframes add <block>` drops a block's source into `compositions/`; the Builder then **customizes in place** — most blocks bake their content/data into their own script (only a few expose CSS-var `params`), so reuse = **add + edit**, not pure variable injection. Hand-author only (a) gaps no block covers and (b) the asset-fusion affordance binding.

After classifying intent → category, the **Director names the block(s) + what to customize** in the shot-plan IR:

```jsonc
"content": { "block": "data-chart", "customize": { "data": [...], "headline": "…", "palette": ["…"] } }
```

## Category → block(s)

## Reuse mechanics

- `npx hyperframes add <block>` → source lands in `compositions/<block>.html`; inline it or reference via `data-composition-src`; customize content/data/palette/positions in place.
- Blocks ship at fixed canvases (1920×1080 / 1080×1920 / 1080×1080) — match or adapt.
- Blocks already follow the HF contract (paused timeline, seek) — keep it.

## Asset-fusion: borrow + net-new (the only real net-new IP)

Borrow `north-korea-locked-down`'s annotation _language_; the net-new is the RWA fusion _logic_ (see the RWA study):

1. Classify the data type; read the asset's **geometric affordance** — linearity → timeline/gauge, volume/texture → pie, height → bar, container → exploded view.
2. **`element_positions`** — measure the asset's feature (center / extent / safe-zones / avoid-zones). This is the reverse-engineer step (vision); in the prototype it's hand-estimated.
3. **Eyedropper palette** from the asset (never generic #FFF/#000).
4. **Two layers** — asset (z0, full-bleed) + data graphics fused to its geometry (z1+), anchored by `element_positions`; connectors/scribble physically tie the data to the asset; the asset stays visible.
