+@description
+Inverts video colors. Each pixel value is subtracted from 255,
+creating a photographic negative effect.

+@param intensity float
+  @range 0.0 1.0
+  @default 1.0
+  Blend between original (0.0) and fully inverted (1.0).

+@example
+  (fx invert)
+
+@example
+  (fx invert :intensity 0.5)
+
+@example
+  (fx invert :intensity (bind analysis :energy :range [0.3 1.0]))
