## What
Adds the weekly digest entry for July 20 to July 27, 2026 to `docs/weekly-updates.mdx`.
Generated with `bun run changelog:weekly --from 2026-07-20 --to 2026-07-27 --write`, then rewritten to publish quality: entries grouped under Features, Fixes, and Docs, prose rewritten to describe user impact, and the `<!-- TODO: review -->` marker removed.
## Why
Keeps the public weekly-updates page current. The digest is the RSS-backed summary readers get between versioned releases.
## How
- Ran the generator over the July 20 to July 27 range.
- Rewrote the new `<Update>` block: 11 Features, 15 Fixes, 3 Docs bullets.
- Every commit and PR link the generator produced for these entries is retained. No link was invented; all references trace back to `updates/weekly/2026-07-27.md`.
- Headline items: professional color grading across core, Studio, and the CLI; a versioned distributed plan protocol with direct S3 and GCS publishing; the Studio keyframe ease editor; data-driven registry caption components.
- `renderStretch` (#2676) is deliberately omitted, since it was reverted in the same window by #2730 and is not present at HEAD.
- CI-only performance and internal refactor entries are omitted as not user-facing.
## Test plan
Docs-only change. No runtime code touched.
- [ ] Unit tests added/updated
- [x] Manual testing performed
- [x] Documentation updated (if applicable)
Verification performed:
- `git diff origin/main --stat` shows only `docs/weekly-updates.mdx`, 49 insertions and 0 deletions (purely additive, the prior week's entry is untouched).
- Confirmed the TODO marker is gone from the file.
- Confirmed every commit SHA and PR number in the new block appears in the generator's own draft, and that each link label matches its href.
- Confirmed the block contains no em-dashes and no stray JSX-unsafe characters outside inline code.
- `node scripts/check-tracked-artifacts.mjs` passes.
* docs(send-to-guide): enhance turns are free; render is the paid step
The shipped pricing model is import + enhance turns free, only the final
render charged (a monthly free-render credit, then per-minute). The guide
labeled enhance as 'the paid step', which misstates the model to the
authoring agent. Move the paid label to Render.
* docs(send-to-guide): state the tiered render billing contract + pin it in the guide test
Address review: the pricing line must teach Claude the real tiered contract,
not a single universal free render. Per heygen-server usage_limits.py: FREE
accounts get 3 renders/month (then blocked, not billed); paid plans are charged
20 credits per rendered minute at completion. Enhance turns are free.
Also pin the invariant in sendToGuideContract.test.ts: assert Enhance=free /
Render=paid + the tiered figures, and a negative assertion blocking the retired
'Enhance ... paid step' wording from returning.
CLI and Studio feedback were emitted as `survey sent` with `$survey_*`
properties, so every rating was ingested as a PostHog survey response even
though no survey definition, targeting, or popover backs them.
Emit `cli_render_feedback` and `studio_feedback` with plain `rating` /
`comment` properties instead. Same fields, same call sites, same opt-out.
Add entry bridges (each naming a specific Level 1-3 artifact the
capability slots into) and literal exit bridges across the 7 Level 4
Substance pages, per the novice-to-advanced restructure plan.

Level 2 (anatomy, specification-dial, vocabulary, visual-specs, examples)
gets entry/exit bridges tying it into the Level 1 -> Level 3 arc, plus a
short note on the composition-structure mandate (0aaac7aa3 / PR #2599)
showing the framework enforces its own version of the prompt skeleton.
All existing prompts, renders, and tables are untouched.
