Publication and release gate

  • Curation gate: this page can stay public only while curationStatus is published.
  • Rights gate: source rights must be known, non-blocked, and attribution must remain visible.
  • Discovery gate: public HTML, Markdown, llms.txt, sitemap, and search-index entries are generated only from published records.
  • Official-source policy: paraphrase BytePlus or paper material and cite the original source.

Prompt reuse checklist

  • Name the exact input type: text, image, audio, video, first frame, or final frame.
  • State what each reference controls so the model does not blend competing instructions.
  • Use one camera move, one main action, and one final-frame payoff.
  • Test the smallest version in HolyCrab before expanding the shot.
