Backbeat Chain Break / 鼓点链断裂

Event promise

This event fires, resolves, or is recorded when a live backbeat packet is used without credible custody, protection, payment, proof, or public explanation.

It prevents blackout audio from becoming a free universal proof token. If the player mutes, sells, edits, hides, or ignores the rhythm, the beat becomes a new crisis surface.

Outcomes

The event must create at least one durable outcome:

• beat_carrier_hostile
• beat_carrier_missing
• backbeat_false_owner_hardened
• backbeat_panic_loop
• pirate_sync_amplified
• sponsor_sync_capture
• editor_mix_contradicted
• blackout_room_recovery_only
• future_blackout_recovery_cost_up

Branch variants

Hostile musician

祁烬 refuses future assignment or releases a contradicted rhythm receipt. Future blackout recovery becomes costlier or requires reconciliation.

Panic loop

Crowd sync turns the beat into a loop that mobilizes, panics, or splits the audience. 观众稳定性下限 is pressured.

False owner

Sponsor, editor, archive, production, or pirate relay claims the beat before the carrier is protected. Future route acceptance depends on recovering or breaking that false ownership.

Recovery-only trace

The trace cannot unlock the intended route; it can only support a later recovery, quarantine, correction, or counterproof action.

Required deltas

A valid event record mutates at least three surfaces, including one future route effect.

Expected surfaces: backbeat_custody_clarity, liveness_trace_admissibility, audience_stability, crowd_sync_pressure, pirate_echo_heat, performer_retaliation_risk, inspection_heat, edit_debt, contract_capture, and future_blackout_recovery_cost.

Non-goals

Not a random concert mishap. Not generic fan mood. Not a timed deadline. Not a death flag. It is the default or backlash event for mishandled backbeat custody.
