Precedent Drift Registry / 先例漂移登记机制

Precedent Drift Registry defines how Storyteller stores, narrows, contaminates, or quarantines institutional memory after a branch result becomes useful to a later desk.

The mechanism exists because the corpus now has many strong local rulings: oxygen clawback, sponsor afteruse, continuity afteruse, enforcement mandate exhaustion, reader-specific rulings, and management compression. Those surfaces answer a case. They do not yet answer what happens when a later sponsor, inspector, archive desk, editor, fan delegate, management report, or route asset holder says: “that case is now the rule.”

This mechanic is not governance. It is a gameplay rule for how old branch states become dangerous future assets.

Entry contract

entry_state:
  trigger_kind: state_pressure
  source_case_present: true
  source_case_branch_resolved_or_defaulted: true
  source_cost_or_scar_kept_true: true
  later_precedent_claim_present: true
  claiming_institution_present: true
  target_case_or_route_present: true
  desired_new_reader_present: true
  excluded_reader_present_or_explicit_absence: true
  analogy_basis_visible: true
  player_can_annotate_narrow_split_counter_quarantine_errata_capture_or_default: true
  no_fixed_turn_trigger: true
  no_fixed_day_or_week_trigger: true
  no_raw_count_trigger: true
  no_dashboard_or_lens_health_trigger: true

The surface fails if it opens because enough turns passed, a quota was met, a dashboard became green, or a generic reputation counter crossed a raw threshold.

Source memory model

The source case remains true. The mechanism never retcons a previous branch.

source_memory_required:
  source_surface: oxygen_clawback_foreclosure | sponsor_afteruse_citation | continuity_afteruse_contempt | enforcement_mandate_exhaustion | ruling_reader_collision | management_compression | broadcast_insolvency | equivalent
  source_case_id: <stable id or explicit_absence>
  original_branch: <branch or default>
  original_reader: <reader or explicit_absence>
  protected_reader: <reader or explicit_absence>
  harmed_or_excluded_reader: <reader or explicit_absence>
  source_relief_kept_true: <relief or explicit_absence>
  source_cost_kept_true: <cost or scar>
  source_future_effect_kept_true: <future effect>

Accepted sources include:

• 呼吸追缴扣押线 when an oxygen branch is generalized into future deduction, stay, foreclosure, or fan consent precedent;
• 赞助后用引证线 when sponsor proof is generalized beyond its original reader table;
• 连续性后用藐视线 when a suppressed-source citation creates future official-memory behavior;
• 执行授权枯竭线 when a served or unserved row becomes a rule about which rows matter;
• 裁定读者冲突线 when one reader’s acceptance is treated as universal;
• 经营压缩台 when a compressed metric is remembered as clean reality.

Precedent claim model

The later claim must be explicit:

precedent_claim_required:
  claiming_institution: sponsor_desk | inspection_desk | archive_desk | management_desk | editor_desk | lawful_desk | fan_delegate | route_asset_holder | pirate_relay | equivalent
  claimed_rule: <generalized rule>
  target_case: <new case or route surface>
  analogy_basis: same_reader | same_asset | same_sponsor | same_signature | same_continuity_version | same_refund_shape | same_mandate_dimension | same_public_receipt | weak_similarity | equivalent
  desired_new_reader: <reader>
  excluded_reader_or_absence: <reader or explicit_absence>
  memory_state_before: unregistered | annotated | narrowed | split | appealed | contaminated | captured | quarantine | explicit_absence

The mechanism fails if the old case becomes a hidden global flag.

Content surfaces

• 先例漂移案卷 records the source case, old scar, precedent claim, target case, analogy basis, and excluded reader.
• 先例题名听证 resolves the memory posture.
• 伪先例默认 fires or arms when a desk cites the old case as a clean new rule without caption discipline.

No branch may create clean universal precedent across sponsor, management, lawful, public, archive, editor, fan, route asset, and broadcast-reality readers.
