Reproducible workflow
Keep source and reaction on separate tracks, label the source, retain the triggering moment and trim only repeated commentary.
Limits
The recipe does not grant source rights, decide fair use or create automatic layouts and captions.
Next verification step
Confirm source permission and ask a viewer to identify what was original and what was commentary.
