+# AMPP Prefix Stripper
+
+IronPython 3.4 script for Grass Valley AMPP Framelight X Script Task brick. Removes filename prefixes (the folder path segments) from asset names after they have been organized into virtual folders.
+
+## Overview
+
+This script runs **after** the Folder Organizer in the FramelightX asset ingestion pipeline. It removes the prefix and `--` delimiter from the asset name, leaving only the filename.
+
+## Example
+
+| Input (AssetName) | Output |
+|-------------------|--------|
+| `BMG--Videos--Clip1.mp4` | `Clip1.mp4` |
+| `NEWS--PKG--Story.mxf` | `Story.mxf` |
+| `IMG--4709.jpg` | `4709.jpg` |
+| `NoPrefix.mp4` | `NoPrefix.mp4` (unchanged) |
+
+## Environment
+
+- **Runtime:** IronPython 3.4 on .NET 8
+- **Available Objects:** `httpClient` (ScriptHttpClient), `job` (ScsJob), `asset` (ScriptAsset), `logger` (ScriptLogger)
+- **Workflow:** Part of the FramelightX asset ingestion Script Task chain
+
+## Deployment
+
+Place this script **after** the Folder Organizer and typically **before** or **after** the Proxy Generator, depending on whether you want the proxy name to reflect the original or stripped name.
+
+## Notes
+
+- The script is safe to run on assets without prefixes — they pass through unchanged.
+- The stripping is performed on the asset's metadata name, not the filename on disk.
+- Works in tandem with the Folder Organizer script for the complete prefix-based organization workflow.
