Full changelog

v2.20.0

Adds source-safe sync-event helpers for multicam prep, deliverable QC, and
single-camera sync review.

Added

media_analysis.detect_sync_events detects likely audio 2-pops and slate
claps with FFprobe/FFmpeg.
Detection returns event times, frames, confidence scores, optional timecode,
marker suggestions, and advisory record_offset suggestions for
media_pool.setup_multicam_timeline(sync_mode="record_frame").
media_analysis.add_sync_event_markers adds Media Pool item markers only
after an explicit confirm=true call.
tests/live_sync_event_validation.py validates detection and confirmed marker
writes in a disposable Resolve project with synthetic audio.

Documentation

Updated README, docs/SKILL.md, media-analysis guide, multicam guide, ingest
kernel docs, kernel coverage, and API coverage.
Kernel action count is now 134 guarded workflow actions across 9 compound
tools.
Documented that FFmpeg/FFprobe are detected and suggested, never installed
automatically.

Validation

venv/bin/python tests/test_import.py
venv/bin/python -m unittest tests.test_sync_detection tests.test_media_analysis tests.test_multicam_setup
venv/bin/python scripts/audit_api_parity.py
git diff --check
venv/bin/python tests/live_sync_event_validation.py

Live validation passed against DaVinci Resolve Studio 20.3.2.9 using a
disposable project and synthetic audio only. It verified 2-pop and slate-clap
detection, marker-write refusal without confirmation, confirmed Media Pool
marker creation, and cleanup.
