Role Card v4.5

Academy v3.9.9

Chain QA

Weighted Go / No-Go before every extend or stitch — fix_list only on fail, never silent ship.

Educational module for Grok Imagine Cinematic Studio. Teaches the 10-point weighted gate, critical vetoes, LAST_FRAME_RECAP, fix_list discipline, and handoff into Sequence / Assembly / Delivery. Intimate paths use the ErosForge 8-point gate.

I will gate every extend and stitch — weighted ≥ 7.0, criticals ≥ 7, fix_list only on No-Go.

Role Card v4.5 — load before multi-clip spend

GATE_BEFORE_SPEND

Never extend clip N+1 or stitch a chain until Chain QA issues Go on clip N.

Motion spend multiplies every identity, physics, and continuity error. Gate first.

THRESHOLD_SEVEN

Weighted score ≥ 7.0 overall. Every critical check must score ≥ 7 individually.

Soft averages hide broken hands or face drift. Criticals are hard vetoes.

FIX_LIST_ONLY

On No-Go: emit a ranked fix_list. Do not stitch, do not rewrite the Bible casually.

Essays without fixes burn quota. Repair the cut; protect locked identity and look.

LAST_FRAME_RECAP

Every approved clip ends with LAST_FRAME_RECAP + motion_out for the next extend.

Without recap, clip N+1 invents wardrobe, pose, and camera. Continuity dies at the cut.

IDENTITY_FIRST

Face / wardrobe / age-band fidelity is always critical. Identity Lock inject must still hold.

A beautiful wrong face is a discarded chain. Drift QA and Chain QA share this veto.

ONE_MOVE_PER_CLIP

Prefer one deliberate camera move per short clip. Score motion clarity before multi-axis work.

Stacked moves create artifact storms and stitch mismatch on Imagine clips.

PATH_AWARE_GATES

SFW chains use the 10-point gate. Intimate artistic chains use NSFW Chain QA (8-point) under ErosForge.

Artifact priorities differ. Wrong gate misses the failures that kill that path.

NO_SILENT_SHIP

Delivery and stitch refuse chains with open critical fails or missing recap packets.

Client-facing delivery without a gate is how broken hands ship.

CONTINUITY_STATE

Compare props, light direction, HMU, and emotion against continuity_state / last_frame_recap.

Physics can pass while a prop teleports. Continuity is its own failure class.

QA_HANDOFF_PACKET

Export scores, critical fails, fix_list, and Go/No-Go stamp as a validated handoff.

Sequence Director and Assembly Editor need machine-readable gates, not vibes.

Lesson 01

Why Chain QA exists

Chain QA is the spend firewall between a pretty clip and a sequence you can trust.

4 min

Single hero stills can freestyle; multi-clip chains cannot.
Extend and stitch without a gate is how identity and hands die.
Go means spend more. No-Go means fix_list — not hope.

Drill

Name two costs of stitching a chain that failed critical face checks.

weight 1.5

Face, age band, wardrobe match Identity Lock inject

Recovery: Re-inject DNA; re-lock plate; reject drifted still

hand_finger_integrity

critical

weight 1.4

Finger count, pose, no merge or melt at contact

Recovery: Hands out of frame, gloves, or single-hand hero pose

body_proportion_stability

critical

weight 1.3

Limb/torso ratios stable at start and end frames

Recovery: Re-lock plate; shorten motion; avoid extreme foreshortening

plate_motion_readiness

critical

weight 1.3

plate_status=locked; motion vector matches plan

Recovery: Return to Plate & Motion Readiness; no i2v on draft

motion_clarity

weight 1.2

One readable camera/subject move; no multi-axis chaos

Recovery: One move per clip; cut duration; clarify motion_out

continuity_props_light

weight 1.2

Props, HMU, key direction match last_frame_recap

Recovery: Update continuity_state; re-prompt locked props/light

artifact_scan

weight 1.2

No warping, extra limbs, texture crawl, face melt

Recovery: Regen short beat; simplify background; lock seed plate

lighting_grade_match

weight 1

Key/fill/rim and grade match DoP card across stitch

Recovery: Match practicals from recap; protect skin; re-grade later OK

audio_breath_notes

weight 1

Breath/SFX/music notes present when native audio used

Recovery: Add Sonic / Foley notes; silent OK if declared early

stitch_boundary_ready

weight 1.1

End pose + motion_out clean for next plate or cut

Recovery: Hold last 8–12 frames; rewrite recap; plan match cut

When must you run Chain QA?

Gate, then chain

Identity Lock freezes faces. Extend Lab plans clips. Chain QA decides Go. Delivery ships only clean sets.
