Feed Ranking Default / 排名流默认

Feed Ranking Default is the failure event for contested exposure lanes. It fires or is armed when a feed lane promotes, buries, or captures a version without visible reader scope, proof context, omitted-reader record, or future route effect.

The event’s job is to make exposure failure durable. It should never be a generic drop in popularity.

Fire or arm when

default_conditions_any:
  - feed_ranking_docket_absent: true
  - source_surface_hidden: true
  - ranking_lane_hidden: true
  - target_reader_hidden: true
  - excluded_reader_omitted_without_absence: true
  - proof_context_hidden_or_false_clean: true
  - sponsor_clean_rank_claims_public_truth: true
  - fan_counter_rank_treated_as_universal_consent: true
  - mirror_feed_inherits_source_scope_for_free: true
  - caption_feed_loses_context: true
  - algorithmic_queue_files_first_without_operator: true
  - future_route_consumes_clean_exposure_without_state: true

Default narrators

The event should name the actor or system that filed first:

  • sponsor desk;
  • archive preview;
  • editor/cutroom;
  • fan counter-rank;
  • mirror relay;
  • caption feed;
  • inspector label;
  • management package;
  • algorithmic queue;
  • explicit absence if no actor is visible.

Required mutation

A valid default must mutate at least three surfaces:

default_result:
  ranking_state_after: false_clean_rank | captured_rank | sponsor_gate_required | lawful_only | mirror_only | public_only | hostile | recovery_only
  relief_or_capture_surface: <what became easier for the first filer>
  cost_surface: <who paid or was omitted>
  future_route_effect: <blocked | captured | costlier | split_required | recovery_only | hostile>
  counter_deltas:
    relief_or_capture: []
    cost: []
    future: []

Valid outcomes

  • Sponsor capture lowers immediate stop-loss pressure but makes public correction costlier.
  • Fan counter-rank contests sponsor capture but exposes witnesses and raises inspection heat.
  • Mirror-only exposure keeps a territory alive but blocks universal acceptance.
  • Lawful-only label reduces fraud but raises schedule and bureau debt.
  • False clean rank improves apparent audience stability while increasing reality drift and future distrust.
  • Recovery-only exposure preserves a correction route but blocks current clean use.

Recovery hooks

Recovery requires one of:

  • public addendum;
  • lawful hold;
  • caption context repair;
  • mirror-scope correction;
  • sponsor concession;
  • fan witness protection;
  • archive warning release;
  • route-asset recovery;
  • split-feed hearing.

Non-goals

  • Not a popularity penalty.
  • Not a feed algorithm lore page.
  • Not a fixed sequence trigger.
  • Not valid if future offers cannot read the defaulted ranking state.
