I have to stand my ground here. Reducing a complex functionality into 15KB is not just about 'generating code'—it's about an architecture that AI cannot conceive on its own.
My role was to architect the bridge between UI/UX design and the underlying video data processing. Handling frame extraction via Canvas, managing memory, and ensuring a seamless seek experience without any backend support requires a deep understanding of how these layers interact.
Simply connecting a backend to a UI might be common, but eliminating the backend entirely while maintaining the utility is a high-level engineering choice. AI was my hammer, but I was the one who designed the bridge. To say this is worth no more than its token count ignores the most difficult part: the intent and the structural simplification that makes it usable for others in a single line of code.

Ironic.
