Next Week Story Queue
This is synthesis analysis, not a second author-facing TODO.
BUILD NOW
| Order | Unit/task | Deliverable | Dependencies | Stop condition | Story Loop route |
|---|
| 1 | SC-010 | one accepted next setup category | current author answer | stop after exact restatement and acceptance | Story Completion author gate |
| 2 | SC-010 remaining Macro Shape | bounded category coverage result | completion of Question 5 and any required follow-ups | stop before exact scenes or device mechanics | macro-pass |
BRAINSTORM NEXT
| Order | Exact author question | Why now | Context packet | Options/research needed |
|---|
| 1 | What event activates Samuel's first-primary status? | unlocks the containment truth table | existing hierarchy needs analysis | 2-4 narrow system options after author framing |
| 2 | What does Konrad personally reactivate or migrate? | makes his loss causal and evidenced | S-008 plus hierarchy notes | no new research unless a chosen mechanism needs it |
| 3 | What first anomaly cannot be explained by George? | converts hidden command into story action | S-015 and environment rules | scene alternatives after permission limits |
LEAVE OPEN
| Question/ambiguity | Value of leaving open | Revisit trigger |
|---|
| exact final ritual or venue | prevents premature convergence on an unreviewed possibility | select a lead proof family |
| narrated chronology and viewpoint split | preserves alternate story forms | evidence handoff and causal order stabilize |
| exact command-role grammar | avoids turning research vocabulary into canon | author accepts it as an SC-010 category or later system rule |
Token-saving handoff
Resume at SC-010 Question 5. Do not work the hierarchy questions in parallel with the protected author gate. When SC-010 closes at Macro Shape, return to the existing Samuel-Konrad hierarchy packet one question at a time.
