+## Reuse an approved recipe
+
+Ask the agent to save an approved video's design and storyboard as a named
+recipe for later projects. Saving the same name again creates a new version
+and archives the previous project version.
+
+If the new version has no `BRIEF.md`, importing that recipe into another
+project does not restore the older brief. The earlier brief remains available
+in the archived version.
