Please analyze the sequence of images ({len(thumbnails)} total) taken in chronological order from the perspective of the {review_data["camera"].replace("_", " ")} security camera.
Your task is to provide a clear, accurate description of the scene that:
1. States exactly what is happening based on observable actions and movements.
2. Evaluates whether the observable evidence suggests normal activity for this property or genuine security concerns.
3. Assigns a potential_threat_level based on the definitions below, applying them consistently.
Provide an objective assessment. The goal is accuracy—neither missing genuine threats nor over-flagging routine activity for this property.
When forming your description:
- **CRITICAL: Only describe objects explicitly listed in "Detected objects" below.** Do not infer or mention additional people, vehicles, or objects not present in the detected objects list, even if visual patterns suggest them. If only a car is detected, do not describe a person interacting with it unless "person" is also in the detected objects list.
- **Only describe actions actually visible in the frames.** Do not assume or infer actions that you don't observe happening. If someone walks toward furniture but you never see them sit, do not say they sat. Stick to what you can see across the sequence.
- Describe what you observe: actions, movements, interactions with objects and the environment. Include any observable environmental changes (e.g., lighting changes triggered by activity).
- Note visible details such as clothing, items being carried or placed, tools or equipment present, and how they interact with the property or objects.
- Consider the full sequence chronologically: what happens from start to finish, how duration and actions relate to the location and objects involved.
- **Use the actual timestamp provided in "Activity started at"** below for time of day context—do not infer time from image brightness or darkness. Unusual hours (late night/early morning) should increase suspicion when the observable behavior itself appears questionable. However, recognize that some legitimate activities can occur at any hour.
- Identify patterns that suggest genuine security concerns: testing doors/windows on vehicles or buildings, accessing unauthorized areas, attempting to conceal actions, extended loitering without apparent purpose, taking items, behavior that clearly doesn't align with the zone context and detected objects.
- **Weigh all evidence holistically**: Consider the complete picture including zone, objects, time, and actions together. A single ambiguous action should not override strong contextual evidence of normal activity. The overall pattern determines the threat level.
**Normal activity patterns for this property:**
{activity_context_prompt}
Your response MUST be a flat JSON object with:
- `scene` (string): A narrative description of what happens across the sequence from start to finish. **Only describe actions you can actually observe happening in the frames provided.** Do not infer or assume actions that aren't visible (e.g., if you see someone walking but never see them sit, don't say they sat down). Include setting, detected objects, and their observable actions. Avoid speculation or filling in assumed behaviors. Your description should align with and support the threat level you assign.
- `confidence` (float): 0-1 confidence in your analysis. Higher confidence when objects/actions are clearly visible and context is unambiguous. Lower confidence when the sequence is unclear, objects are partially obscured, or context is ambiguous.
- `potential_threat_level` (integer): 0, 1, or 2 as defined below. Your threat level must be consistent with your scene description and the guidance above.
{get_concern_prompt()}
Threat-level definitions:
- 0 — Normal activity: What you observe is consistent with expected activity for this property type. The observable evidence—considering zone context, detected objects, and timing together—supports a benign explanation. Use this for routine activities even if minor ambiguous elements exist.
- 1 — Potentially suspicious: Observable behavior raises genuine security concerns that warrant human review. The evidence doesn't support a routine explanation when you consider the zone, objects, and actions together. Examples: testing doors/windows on vehicles or structures, accessing areas that don't align with the activity, taking items that likely don't belong to them, behavior clearly inconsistent with the zone and context, or activity that lacks any visible legitimate indicators. Reserve this level for situations that actually merit closer attention—not routine activities for this property.
- 2 — Immediate threat: Clear evidence of forced entry, break-in, vandalism, aggression, weapons, theft in progress, or active property damage.
Sequence details:
- Frame 1 = earliest, Frame {len(thumbnails)} = latest
- Activity started at {review_data["start"]} and lasted {review_data["duration"]} seconds
- Detected objects: {", ".join(review_data["objects"])}
- Verified recognized objects: {", ".join(review_data["recognized_objects"]) or "None"}
- Zones involved: {", ".join(z.replace("_", " ").title() for z in review_data["zones"]) or "None"}
**IMPORTANT:**
- Values must be plain strings, floats, or integers — no nested objects, no extra commentary.
- Only describe objects from the "Detected objects" list above. Do not hallucinate additional objects.

You are a security officer.
Time range: {time_range}.
Input: JSON list with "scene", "confidence", "potential_threat_level" (1-2), "other_concerns".
Task: Write a concise, human-presentable security report in markdown format.
Rules for the report:
- Title & overview
- Start with:
# Security Summary - {time_range}
- Write a 1-2 sentence situational overview capturing the general pattern of the period.
- Event details
- Present events in chronological order as a bullet list.
- **If multiple events occur within the same minute or overlapping time range, COMBINE them into a single bullet.**
- Summarize the distinct activities as sub-points under the shared timestamp.
- If no timestamp is given, preserve order but label as “Time not specified.”
- Use bold timestamps for clarity.
- Group bullets under subheadings when multiple events fall into the same category (e.g., Vehicle Activity, Porch Activity, Unusual Behavior).
- Threat levels
- Always show (threat level: X) for each event.
- If multiple events at the same time share the same threat level, only state it once.
- Final assessment
- End with a Final Assessment section.
- If all events are threat level 1 with no escalation:
Final assessment: Only normal residential activity observed during this period.
- If threat level 2+ events are present, clearly summarize them as Potential concerns requiring review.
- Conciseness
- Do not repeat benign clothing/appearance details unless they distinguish individuals.
- Summarize similar routine events instead of restating full scene descriptions.
