# Image Sequence Export Implementation Plan
> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
**Goal:** Add lossless WebP image sequence export as an alternative to MP4 via a format dropdown next to the Export button.
**Architecture:** `build_ffmpeg_command` gains an `image_sequence` flag that swaps the codec to libwebp lossless and uses a `frame_%04d.webp` output pattern. A new `build_sequence_dir` function mirrors `build_export_path` but returns a directory path. `ExportWorker` creates the directory before running ffmpeg when in sequence mode. A `QComboBox` in the export row selects the format; selection is persisted via QSettings.
**Tech Stack:** PyQt6, ffmpeg (libwebp), Python 3.11+

### Task 1: Add `build_sequence_dir` and extend `build_ffmpeg_command`
**Files:**
- Modify: `main.py:21-63`
- Test: `tests/test_utils.py`
**Step 1: Write the failing tests**
Add to `tests/test_utils.py`:
```python
from main import build_sequence_dir
def test_build_sequence_dir_basic():
assert build_sequence_dir("/out", "clip", 1) == "/out/clip_001"
def test_build_sequence_dir_counter():
assert build_sequence_dir("/out", "clip", 42) == "/out/clip_042"
def test_ffmpeg_command_image_sequence():
cmd = build_ffmpeg_command("/in/v.mp4", 0.0, "/out/seq_001", image_sequence=True)
assert "-vcodec" in cmd
assert "libwebp" in cmd[cmd.index("-vcodec") + 1]
assert "-lossless" in cmd
assert "1" in cmd[cmd.index("-lossless") + 1]
assert "-compression_level" in cmd
assert "4" in cmd[cmd.index("-compression_level") + 1]
assert cmd[-1] == "/out/seq_001/frame_%04d.webp"
def test_ffmpeg_command_image_sequence_with_resize():
cmd = build_ffmpeg_command("/in/v.mp4", 0.0, "/out/seq_001", image_sequence=True, short_side=256)
assert "-vf" in cmd
vf = cmd[cmd.index("-vf") + 1]
assert "scale" in vf
assert cmd[-1] == "/out/seq_001/frame_%04d.webp"
def test_ffmpeg_command_image_sequence_no_audio():
cmd = build_ffmpeg_command("/in/v.mp4", 0.0, "/out/seq_001", image_sequence=True)
assert "-c:a" not in cmd
assert "aac" not in cmd
```
**Step 2: Run tests to verify they fail**
```bash
pytest tests/test_utils.py::test_build_sequence_dir_basic tests/test_utils.py::test_ffmpeg_command_image_sequence -v
```
Expected: FAIL with `ImportError: cannot import name 'build_sequence_dir'`
**Step 3: Implement `build_sequence_dir` (add after `build_export_path` at line 24)**
```python
def build_sequence_dir(folder: str, basename: str, counter: int) -> str:
return os.path.join(folder, f"{basename}_{counter:03d}")
```
**Step 4: Extend `build_ffmpeg_command` signature and body**
Replace lines 34-63 with:
```python
def build_ffmpeg_command(
input_path: str, start: float, output_path: str,
short_side: int | None = None,
portrait_ratio: str | None = None,
crop_center: float = 0.5,
image_sequence: bool = False,
) -> list[str]:
cmd = [
"ffmpeg", "-y",
"-ss", str(start),
"-i", input_path,
"-t", "8",
]
filters: list[str] = []
if portrait_ratio is not None:
filters.append(_portrait_crop_filter(portrait_ratio, crop_center))
if short_side is not None:
filters.append(
f"scale='if(lt(iw,ih),{short_side},-2)':'if(lt(iw,ih),-2,{short_side})'"
)
if filters:
cmd += ["-vf", ",".join(filters)]
if image_sequence:
cmd += [
"-vcodec", "libwebp",
"-lossless", "1",
"-compression_level", "4",
os.path.join(output_path, "frame_%04d.webp"),
]
else:
cmd += ["-c:v", "libx264", "-c:a", "aac", output_path]
return cmd
```
**Step 5: Run tests to verify they pass**
```bash
pytest tests/test_utils.py -v
```
Expected: all tests PASS (29 existing + 5 new = 34 total)
**Step 6: Commit**
```bash
git add main.py tests/test_utils.py
git commit -m "feat: build_sequence_dir and image_sequence flag for build_ffmpeg_command"
```

### Task 2: Update `ExportWorker` for image sequence mode
**Files:**
- Modify: `main.py``ExportWorker` class (around lines 188-225)
**Step 1: Add `image_sequence` param to `ExportWorker.__init__` and `run`**
Find the `ExportWorker` class. Its `__init__` currently reads:
```python
def __init__(self, input_path: str, start: float, output_path: str,
short_side: int | None = None,
portrait_ratio: str | None = None,
crop_center: float = 0.5):
super().__init__()
self._input = input_path
self._start = start
self._output = output_path
self._short_side = short_side
self._portrait_ratio = portrait_ratio
self._crop_center = crop_center
```
Replace with:
```python
def __init__(self, input_path: str, start: float, output_path: str,
short_side: int | None = None,
portrait_ratio: str | None = None,
crop_center: float = 0.5,
image_sequence: bool = False):
super().__init__()
self._input = input_path
self._start = start
self._output = output_path
self._short_side = short_side
self._portrait_ratio = portrait_ratio
self._crop_center = crop_center
self._image_sequence = image_sequence
```
**Step 2: Update `ExportWorker.run`**
Find the `run` method in `ExportWorker`. It currently reads:
```python
def run(self):
cmd = build_ffmpeg_command(
self._input, self._start, self._output,
short_side=self._short_side,
portrait_ratio=self._portrait_ratio,
crop_center=self._crop_center,
)
```
Replace the body with:
```python
def run(self):
if self._image_sequence:
os.makedirs(self._output, exist_ok=True)
cmd = build_ffmpeg_command(
self._input, self._start, self._output,
short_side=self._short_side,
portrait_ratio=self._portrait_ratio,
crop_center=self._crop_center,
image_sequence=self._image_sequence,
)
```
Leave the rest of `run` (subprocess Popen, emit finished/error) unchanged.
**Step 3: Run tests**
```bash
pytest tests/test_utils.py -v
```
Expected: 34 tests PASS (no regressions — ExportWorker is not unit-tested directly)
**Step 4: Commit**
```bash
git add main.py
git commit -m "feat: ExportWorker supports image_sequence mode"
```

### Task 3: Add format combo to MainWindow UI
**Files:**
- Modify: `main.py``MainWindow.__init__` widget creation and layout (around lines 756-816)
**Step 1: Add `_cmb_format` widget after `_cmb_portrait` setup**
Find the block that sets up `_cmb_portrait` (search for `self._cmb_portrait = QComboBox()`). Immediately after the portrait combo block (after `self._cmb_portrait.currentTextChanged.connect(...)`), add:
```python
self._cmb_format = QComboBox()
self._cmb_format.addItems(["MP4", "WebP sequence"])
saved_fmt = self._settings.value("export_format", "MP4")
fmt_idx = self._cmb_format.findText(saved_fmt)
self._cmb_format.setCurrentIndex(fmt_idx if fmt_idx >= 0 else 0)
self._cmb_format.currentTextChanged.connect(
lambda v: self._settings.setValue("export_format", v)
)
self._cmb_format.currentTextChanged.connect(self._update_next_label)
```
**Step 2: Insert combo into the export_row layout**
Find the `export_row` layout block. It ends with:
```python
export_row.addWidget(self._cmb_portrait)
export_row.addWidget(self._lbl_next)
export_row.addWidget(self._btn_export)
```
Replace with:
```python
export_row.addWidget(self._cmb_portrait)
export_row.addWidget(QLabel("Format:"))
export_row.addWidget(self._cmb_format)
export_row.addWidget(self._lbl_next)
export_row.addWidget(self._btn_export)
```
**Step 3: Run the app briefly to verify UI**
```bash
python main.py
```
Expected: "Format:" label and MP4/WebP sequence dropdown appear left of the Export button.
**Step 4: Commit**
```bash
git add main.py
git commit -m "feat: add format combo (MP4 / WebP sequence) to export row"
```
---
### Task 4: Wire format selection into `_update_next_label` and `_on_export`
**Files:**
- Modify: `main.py``_update_next_label`, `_on_export`, `_on_export_done` (around lines 933-986)
**Step 1: Update `_update_next_label` to show correct output path**
Find `_update_next_label`. It currently reads:
```python
def _update_next_label(self):
path = build_export_path(
self._txt_folder.text(),
self._txt_name.text() or "clip",
self._export_counter,
)
self._lbl_next.setText(f"{os.path.basename(path)}")
```
Replace with:
```python
def _update_next_label(self):
folder = self._txt_folder.text()
name = self._txt_name.text() or "clip"
if self._cmb_format.currentText() == "WebP sequence":
path = build_sequence_dir(folder, name, self._export_counter)
else:
path = build_export_path(folder, name, self._export_counter)
self._lbl_next.setText(f"{os.path.basename(path)}")
```
**Step 2: Update `_on_export` to use the correct path builder and pass `image_sequence`**
Find `_on_export`. The section that builds `output` and creates `ExportWorker` currently reads:
```python
output = build_export_path(
self._txt_folder.text(),
self._txt_name.text() or "clip",
self._export_counter,
)
...
self._export_worker = ExportWorker(
self._file_path, self._cursor, output,
short_side=short_side,
portrait_ratio=portrait_ratio,
crop_center=self._crop_center,
)
```
Replace those two blocks with:
```python
fmt = self._cmb_format.currentText()
image_sequence = fmt == "WebP sequence"
folder = self._txt_folder.text()
name = self._txt_name.text() or "clip"
if image_sequence:
output = build_sequence_dir(folder, name, self._export_counter)
else:
output = build_export_path(folder, name, self._export_counter)
...
self._export_worker = ExportWorker(
self._file_path, self._cursor, output,
short_side=short_side,
portrait_ratio=portrait_ratio,
crop_center=self._crop_center,
image_sequence=image_sequence,
)
```
(Leave everything between those two blocks — short_side parsing, setEnabled, statusBar message — unchanged.)
**Step 3: Run tests**
```bash
pytest tests/test_utils.py -v
```
Expected: 34 tests PASS
**Step 4: Smoke-test the app**
```bash
python main.py
```
Drop a video, set format to "WebP sequence", export. Verify a `clip_001/` directory appears containing `frame_0000.webp`, `frame_0001.webp`, … in lossless WebP format.
**Step 5: Commit**
```bash
git add main.py
git commit -m "feat: wire WebP sequence format into export flow"
```
