   - **Config-driven selection**: Set `image.provider` to `openai` or `nanobanana`
   - Scene generation creates memorable contexts for each word
 - Batch processing of multiple words
-- **Vocabulary story generation** (`--story`):
-  - Generates a ~250-word Bulgarian story that naturally uses every word in a batch file
-  - All human characters are adults; story genre/setting driven by `--story-theme`
-  - Produces **12 pages** per comic: cover + 5 story pages (2×2 panel grid) + 5 gallery pages (close-up character art) + back cover
-  - All output saved under `comics/<title-slug>/` with files named `<slug>_*.png`
-  - **Rendering mode** chosen randomly 50/50 each run; force with `--ultra-realistic` or `--no-ultra-realistic`:
-    - *Ultra-realistic*: photography-language style prompt (DSLR, cinematic stills, hyper-realistic) + mandatory photorealistic rendering requirement — produces near-photographic panels
-    - *Standard comic*: comic art style pool (90% "ultra realistic comic strip", 10% manga / watercolor / noir / pop-art etc.)
-  - Art style override: `--story-style` replaces the random pick for both modes
-  - **Iterative character consistency**: each page is generated with the cover + previous page as pixel references so characters stay visually consistent
-  - **Character bible**: Gemini generates a detailed visual guide (age, clothing, colours) used in every prompt
-  - **Cinematic narration** via Gemini TTS (opt-in with `--narrate`; off by default to save quota)
-    - Output: `<slug>_narration.mp3` — Bulgarian phonology, dramatic pacing, random voice from a curated pool
-    - Override voice with `--narrator-voice`; intro teaser + main story chunks (~100 words each) + epilogue
-    - Falls back to `<slug>_tts_todo.txt` if narration fails
-  - **Vocabulary learning file** (`<slug>_comic_vocabulary.txt`) — word list with translations + full story text
-  - **Theme file** (`<slug>_theme.txt`) — records the `--story-theme` used for easy reproduction
 - Anki-compatible export
 - Random voice variants and speech speed

-#### Optional Gallery Videos (Veo)
-
-After `--story` comic generation completes, the CLI prompts you to generate short MP4 videos from the gallery close-up images using **Google Veo**.
-
-**How it works:**
-
-1. Once the comic pages, PDF, and narration are written to disk the CLI automatically searches `comics/<slug>/` for gallery PNG files.
-2. It lists the found images and asks:
-   ```
-   Found gallery pages:
-     comics/my-story/my-story_gallery_1.png
-     comics/my-story/my-story_gallery_2.png
-     ...
-   Generate videos for these gallery pages? [y/N]:
-   ```
-3. If you confirm, you are asked which pages to animate:
-   ```
-   Which pages? (e.g. 1,3,5 or all) [all]:
-   ```
-4. Each selected gallery PNG is sent to the Veo API and the resulting 8-second MP4 is saved alongside the PNG:
-   ```
-   comics/<slug>/<slug>_gallery_1.mp4
-   comics/<slug>/<slug>_gallery_2.mp4
-   ...
-   ```
-
-**Model:** `veo-2.0-generate-001`
-
-**Cost note:** Veo is a paid Google Cloud feature. Your `GOOGLE_API_KEY` must have billing enabled and the Veo API activated in your Google Cloud project. The prompt will not appear if you pass `--video=false`.
-
-**CLI usage:**
-
-```bash
-# Default: prompt appears after story generation (answer y/N interactively)
-totalrecall --story words.txt
-
-# Skip the video prompt entirely
-totalrecall --story words.txt --video=false
-```
-
-Video generation failures are non-fatal — any errors are printed as warnings and the already-generated comic, PDF, and narration remain intact on disk.
