License Exemption Freeze Grant / 牌照豁免冻结授予机制

License Exemption Freeze Grant turns producer-license exemption, freeze, and borrowed-forward capacity into a row-level state transition.

The mechanism begins before a slot can be released. It asks who granted the exception, what slot it modifies, which reader is excluded, what proof or absence supports it, and which future consumer will inherit the state.

Exemption row

license_exemption_freeze_row:
  source_slot:
    slot_id: <stable slot id>
    slot_kind: main_broadcast | side_broadcast | correction | lawful_airing | sponsor_package | blackout_containment | recovery_slot | equivalent
    capacity_state_before: occupied | premiere_due | folded_blackout | frozen | exempted | audit_hold | borrowed_forward | forced_main_pending | correction_pending | recovery_only | explicit_absence
    occupying_source_or_absence: <contract blackout freeze exemption audit correction route asset or explicit_absence>
    reader_scope_before: public | lawful | sponsor | archive | route_asset | management | blackout | split | explicit_absence
  exemption_or_freeze_claim:

    claim_kind: temporary_exemption | audit_freeze | lawful_stay | sponsor_waiver | public_delay | borrowed_forward | forced_main_hold | correction_hold | equivalent
    grant_authority: producer_license | board_audit | lawful_seal | sponsor_waiver | public_receipt | management_order | route_asset_holder | explicit_absence
    proof_anchor_or_absence: audit_row | lawful_seal | public_addendum | sponsor_unwind | quarantine_order | weekly_cycle_row | archive_row | explicit_absence
    duration_or_review_condition_or_absence: <duration review condition or explicit_absence>
    unresolved_claims_or_absence:
      - <blackout reader sponsor lawful public archive route asset management or explicit_absence>
  review:
    selected_posture: grant_scoped_exemption | freeze_under_audit | extend_with_collateral | borrow_forward_capacity | refuse_exemption | transfer_exemption_authority | hidden_exemption_default
    exemption_state_after: scoped_exemption | audit_frozen | collateralized_extension | borrowed_forward | refused_exception | delegated_exemption | false_exempt_capacity | blocked | costlier | recovery_only
    future_reader_or_route_effect: <effect>
    counter_deltas:
      relief: []
      cost: []
      future: []

The row is invalid if it stores only exempted, frozen, delayed, days +1, slot available, or a raw counter delta.

State machine

State	Meaning	Required consequence
scoped_exemption	A named reader may treat the slot as temporarily allowed.	Other readers require addendum, later review, or scar.
audit_frozen	Slot cannot be consumed cleanly while audit or lawful hold exists.	Capacity pressure remains visible.
collateralized_extension	Deadline/capacity is extended by collateral.	Collateral holder gains leverage.
borrowed_forward	Future cycle capacity is pulled into current use.	Future slot or forced main inherits debt.
refused_exception	Exception is rejected.	Current route folds, narrows, or becomes recovery-only.
delegated_exemption	Another holder can carry the exception.	Proxy debt, capture risk, or lawful seal cost is visible.
false_exempt_capacity	Hidden exception is filed as usable capacity.	Default event arms and future consumer is polluted.

Branch contract

At least six responses must be playable or explicitly blocked:

• grant scoped exemption;
• freeze under audit;
• extend with collateral;
• borrow forward capacity;
• refuse exemption;
• transfer exemption authority;
• allow hidden exemption default.

Every resolved branch must mutate at least one relief surface, one cost surface, and one future reader or route effect.

Default conditions

Hidden Exemption Capacity Default fires or arms when:

• a slot delay or exemption changes capacity without a source slot row;
• grant authority or proof anchor is missing but not marked explicit absence;
• expiry, duration, or review condition is hidden;
• a future forced main, side slot, correction, route asset, sponsor package, or weekly rollover consumes exception state before the ledger is visible;
• sponsor, management, dashboard, or raw audit count declares the exception clean for every reader.

Counter surfaces

Allowed relief surfaces include license_exemption_available, forced_main_pressure_down, premiere_fold_prevented, correction_capacity_open, and clean_rows_protected.

Allowed cost surfaces include license_slot_integrity_down, audit_risk_up, inspection_heat_up, sponsor_capture_pressure_up, borrowed_forward_debt_up, public_receipt_distrust_up, lawful_addendum_due, and future_recovery_cost_up.

Allowed future surfaces include future_reader_acceptance, forced_main_seed, blocked_side_slot, costlier_route, borrowed_forward_scar, delegated_exemption_required, recovery_only_route, and broadcast_reality_drift.

Non-goals

• Not a generic delay timer.
• Not a release receipt.
• Not a weekly audit.
• Not a free capacity expansion.
• Not valid if the only observable mutation is a countdown, frozen flag, or slot count changing.
