Caption Switchboard Key / 字幕切换键

Caption Switchboard Key is the card that records how Caption Switcher routed a caption layer before a later reader consumes that caption as proof.

It does not prove the source voice by itself. It records operator state, caption layer, harmed reader, pressure actor, selected routing posture, and future route effect.

Executable overlay binding

This page’s executable object is storyteller.card.caption_switchboard_key.v1. In the strict Lou Ke overlay it fills only switchboard_key; it cannot stand in for the caption-witness ledger, source row, actual Lou Ke person card, harmed reader, pressure actor, or future reader. Lou Ke Caption Switch Hearing requires this card together with all ten other exact cards and checks that every assignment is in hand before accepting a choice.

Choice 0 records recruitment and unlocks only route_asset.lou_ke_caption_switcher. Choice 7 records suppression and arms Lou Ke False Caption Default with exactly lou_ke.default_pending, storyteller.event.lou_ke_false_caption_default.v1.armed, and future_route.lou_ke_recovery_pending; it cannot count as durable proof until that event clears the triple and leaves no clean route asset. The generic Caption Witness Hearing remains the wider Caption Witness mechanism and is not replaced by this strict character binding.

Routing outcomes

Routing posture	Relief	Cost	Future effect
protect_access	access proof and operator legibility rise	handler burden, exposure, sponsor pressure	access route protected with cost
recruit_operator	one future split or escrow is available	payroll leak, inspection heat, route-asset pressure	narrow route asset unlocked
retain_one_run	one caption contradiction is contained	future service costlier	follow-up hearing required
sponsor_safe_switch	sponsor or slot pressure falls	public distrust, access harm, capture	sponsor-only caption or public route costlier
split_tracks	incompatible publics remain separately served	translation drift and edit debt	split caption canon
archive_escrow	false-caption risk falls	route delay and archive debt	source rehearing or lawful-only caption
fan_relay_publish	private capture is blocked	relay liability and inspection heat	public-only or lawful appeal route
suppress_or_autoclean	scandal pressure may soften briefly	false caption witness hardens	blocked, hostile, or recovery-only route

Failure cases

This card is incomplete if it only records caption accuracy, subtitle language, operator name, or accessibility status. It must preserve source, caption layer, routing posture, harmed reader, pressure actor, operator state, and future reader effect.

No branch may let one switchboard row certify all caption readers cleanly.
