Muse Shorts

In Nigeria, most reliable science and health content is in English, while millions of people learn best in Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa or Igbo. That gap is where misinformation spreads. Faceless Short generators exist, but none of them check facts. muse-shorts is an AI agent that turns a science topic into a publish-ready vertical Short (9:16, 45–75 s) in English, Nigerian Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo, where every on-screen claim is traceable to a source. The agent, running on Meta's open-weights Muse Spark Open, picks one tool per turn: scope check, gather evidence from Wikipedia and PubMed, plan, write a script where each line quotes its source verbatim, then a claim critic rejects and rewrites unsupported lines. Health topics need 100% of claims verified. Muse Image draws each frame and SAM 3.1 acts as a gate, so a label only appears if SAM actually finds that structure. The script is translated and checked by back-translation, voiced with WazobiaVoice (Nigerian languages) or Kokoro (English), captioned, and sha256-fingerprinted. Every run ends as "pending review": nothing is exported until I, the human creator, approve it.
