Directr COMPANION (runs on YOUR PC, uses YOUR Claude Code login)

1. Install: Python 3.10+, ffmpeg (on PATH), and Claude Code (sign in with your own account).
2. Double-click start_companion.bat. It prints a pairing token and opens the site already connected.
   To use the public website instead:  start_companion.bat https://THE-SITE-ADDRESS
3. Your files, accounts labels, projects and renders stay in this folder. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Optional editing with Remotion (previews and renders):
   a. Install Node.js 18+.
   b. In the remotion-template folder run:  npm install
   (this downloads Remotion and a headless browser; it is only needed for the Editor tab)

Phone on the same Wi-Fi: start_phone.bat (allow Python on PRIVATE networks only).
Safety: the pairing token is a password for this PC. Never share links that contain it.
