Google's TTS and Imagen tools advertised service-account auth
(GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS) but only ever authenticated with an API
key string, so users with a service-account JSON could not use either tool.
google_tts.get_status() also over-reported availability when the JSON was
set, then failed at execute() — a silent-availability bug.
Separately, both hand-rolled _load_dotenv parsers kept inline comments as
values, so after `cp .env.example .env` every keyed tool falsely reported
"available" with no real credentials.
Changes:
- Add tools/google_credentials.py: lazy google-auth Bearer-token helper.
- google_tts: authenticate via Cloud TTS Bearer token when only a service
account is configured; make get_status() honest.
- google_imagen: route service-account auth to Vertex AI
({location}-aiplatform.googleapis.com) with project/location resolution,
alongside the existing AI Studio API-key path.
- Fix both _load_dotenv parsers to strip inline comments (quote-aware).
- Add google-auth to requirements; document the new env vars in .env.example.
- .gitignore: never commit GCP service-account key files.
Verified locally with a real service account: TTS produced a valid MP3 and
Imagen produced a valid 1408x768 PNG via Vertex AI. Existing test suite
passes (2 unrelated pre-existing failures only).
Closes#131

Separates creative grammar (renderer_family) from technical engine
(render_runtime) so HyperFrames can stand alongside Remotion as a
first-class runtime instead of masquerading as a Remotion sub-case.
Locks runtime choice at proposal stage and enforces it end-to-end: the
schemas require it, video_compose routes by it, the reviewer fails
closed on silent swaps, and a parametrized contract test walks every
pipeline manifest to ensure each planning-stage skill explains the
conversation to the user. Adds hyperframes_compose (scaffold/lint/
validate/render/doctor/add_block), a playbook -> CSS style bridge, and
vendored HyperFrames Layer 3 skills from commit d291358, pinned via
PROVENANCE.md for future re-sync. Final_review now records
render_runtime_used and runtime_swap_detected so compose lies are
catchable after the fact.
