FORM GL-002 · WORKSPACE MANIFEST8 COCKPITS · 1 PRODUCTION

Eight cockpits. One production. Yours.

Every cockpit is a focused window on one real production problem — and all of them read and write the same open files underneath. Start with the problem costing you momentum; the rest are already connected.

Turn the idea into chapters, scenes, shots, characters, camera language, and references — in open SKEL files.

03 · GENERATE

Add a Higgsfield, OpenArt, or fal key, use a local route, or hand the production to the LLM app you prefer.

Experiment freely. Keep what works. Build forward without starting over.
SPEC SHEET · OPEN FORMATSPUBLISHED & PORTABLE

Structure that survives the next model.

Models change. Providers change. Your production does not. Three open formats hold the whole thing on your disk — readable by you, your git repo, and any LLM.

The complete production as open, relational story data — acts, scenes, shots, cast, continuity, media, decisions.

Portable prompt and provider contracts. Swap Higgsfield for tomorrow's model without rebuilding a shot.

DAY ONE, NOT DAY ZERO · PRE-INSTALLED PRODUCTION

Ships with The Last Frequency — a complete 12-shot production.

✓2 acts · 4 scenes · 12 shots with cinematography fields and dialogue
✓Seeded Studio entities — cast, locations, a Signal Core environment
✓Working BONEs — first-party contracts plus Higgsfield image / video

LEDGER GL-003 · PRODUCTION YOU CAN AUDITSIX LEDGERS · ALL FILES

Every render explained. Every dollar accounted for.

AI production fails quietly: a model silently swapped, a bill silently grown, a render nobody can explain. Genlock writes it all down — what ran, what it cost, why it was chosen — and lets you resume any run where it stopped.

CAPABILITY MATRIXLEDGER A

One preflight probes providers and runtimes and answers "can I ship today?" — Healthy / Degraded / Blocked, with honest per-capability badges.

DECISION LOGLEDGER B

An append-only audit of every consequential choice — provider, model, quality gate — with options considered, rationale, and approval.

COST LEDGERLEDGER C

Estimate → reserve → reconcile on every generation, with observe / warn / cap modes. No fabricated figures, no surprise bills.

BONE READINESSLEDGER D

Every contract declares what it requires — armed / needs-setup / unavailable — so you know which shots can generate before you press send.

PROVIDER SCORINGLEDGER E

Models rank across seven visible dimensions, rejected alternatives shown. Manual override always wins; fallbacks never degrade silently.

PRODUCTION RUNSLEDGER F

Resumable runs with stages, required-artifact gaps, approval gates, and spend tracking. An interrupted stage is never silently marked complete.

Everything lives as auditable files under projects/<slug>/.spore/ — strictly additive; existing projects keep working.

CROSS-REFERENCE · THE THINGS YOU'D ACTUALLY ASK

Blunt questions. Straight answers.

01 · STORY
Why should I want Skeleton?
Because version-controlled stories survive generator churn. SEE COCKPIT 01 →
02 · GENERATORS
What the hell is a BONE?
A swappable adapter between your shot and whatever model is useful today. SEE COCKPIT 05 →
03 · BEHAVIOR
Okay, then what is MUSCLE?
Reusable production behavior with guardrails — not a plugin loose inside your story. SEE SPEC 3.0 →
04 · FREEDOM
Am I stuck with one AI vendor?
No. Providers are routes into the production, never the owner of it. SEE COCKPIT 03 →
05 · WORKFLOW
How does a prompt become a cut?
Follow one idea through structure, generation, review, continuity, audio, and timeline. SEE COCKPIT 02 →
06 · TRIAL
Can I try everything before I buy?
Yes. Every feature is included for seven days. Then buy once to keep using Genlock. SEE PRICING →
