Topic first, then platform, length, depth, script lean, tell, tone. Any missing pick = no run. GET does not spend. The floor never posts.
Default research goes to the first event that actually triggered the topic, scoped to recent news. Check this only if you explicitly want deeper history. The depth pick is not forwarded to Parallel as the horizon.

Historical drama through one port family
Documentary / weekly_update stay news: host VO, no invented people, even if you type a family thriller. Feature invents a frame from whatever you typed.

On the cited print
Tone is a voice. It does not restamp source rows. It is not a clearance.
Any missing pick = no run.
