Stage Light Cue Custody / 舞台灯位证据羁押机制

Stage Light Cue Custody defines how Storyteller treats live light cues as evidence. A light cue can reveal, conceal, beautify, injure, split, or falsely prove a body. The mechanism prevents cue state from being collapsed into mood, staging, power availability, or camera flavor.

Design gap

Emergency power can keep stage_lights alive, and preair rehearsal can store cue sheets before final air. Neither answers the later proof question: when a future reader cites the light cue, what exactly did the light make visible, what did it hide, and who can rely on that visibility?

Cue row

stage_light_cue_row:
  cue_id: <stable cue id>
  source_surface: live_broadcast | correction_slot | memorial_air | route_asset_bridge | emergency_power | wardrobe_evidence | live_floor | fan_recording | archive_still | equivalent
  cue_kind: spotlight | blackout_mark | safety_flood | beauty_wash | silhouette | handoff_light | proof_scan_light | fan_angle | camera_crop | explicit_absence | equivalent
  cue_state_before: unclaimed | raw_logged | safety_only | sponsor_captured | split_light_camera | public_angle | archive_escrowed | quarantined | false_clean | recovery_only | equivalent
  lit_subject_or_absence: artist | witness | substitute_body | route_asset | proof_bundle | crowd_delegate | empty_stage | explicit_absence | equivalent
  disputed_subject_or_absence: <subject or explicit_absence>
  operator_or_anchor: light_board_operator | call_sheet | camera_log | archive_still | fan_recording | power_ledger | explicit_absence | equivalent
  citing_reader: sponsor | archive | inspector | fan_public | lawful_reader | wardrobe_desk | live_floor | route_asset | broadcast_reality | equivalent
  harmed_or_excluded_reader: <reader or explicit_absence>
  future_reader_or_route: <reader route or explicit_absence>

Rows are invalid if they only record brightness, mood, or stage direction.

State machine

cue_states:
  raw_logged: cue can be cited only with operator or anchor
  safety_only: cue proves safe movement or hazard, not body identity
  sponsor_captured: cue is accepted only as sponsor glamour or package proof
  split_light_camera: light board and camera feed disagree and both persist
  public_angle: fan or public witness angle carries the cue
  archive_escrowed: cue is held for lawful or archive reader
  quarantined: cue cannot be cited until proof bridge exists
  false_clean: cue is being filed as universal proof
  recovery_only: cue can be repaired only with visible scar

Branch rules

Every branch through 舞台灯位听证 must write relief, cost, and future effect.

Default rule

伪灯位证据默认 must fire or arm when:

• sponsor beauty light is treated as body proof;
• a safety flood is treated as intact evidence;
• a camera crop erases an unlit subject;
• cue operator or anchor is hidden;
• emergency power success is used as cue proof;
• preair cue sheet is used as on-air cue proof;
• a future reader consumes cue state without harmed reader or future effect.

Counter surfaces

Relevant surfaces include cue_integrity, body_presence_clarity, visibility_proof_scope, safety_trace_integrity, wardrobe_trace_integrity, sponsor_glamour_capture, public_receipt_legitimacy, public_receipt_distrust, inspection_heat, archive_debt, edit_debt, live_floor_safety, route_asset_pressure, broadcast_reality_drift, and future_recovery_cost.

Integration boundaries

• Emergency power answers whether light had power. This mechanism answers what a cue proves.
• Preair rehearsal answers whether a draft cue contaminated reality. This mechanism reads the cue that actually entered on-air or post-air evidence.
• Wardrobe evidence answers what a worn object proves. This mechanism answers what lighting allowed readers to see or miss.

Non-goals

• Not a lighting simulator.
• Not a generic proof bonus.
• Not a fixed upkeep phase.
• Not valid if every reader accepts one light cue as clean proof.
