Generation Scaffolding

This document instantiates the generation scaffolding for the frozen ritual system Arrival / Prophetic EP (v1.0).

Note: Track numbering aligns strictly with the frozen schema (Tracks 1–8). No additional tracks are permitted.

prompt-pairs/ — Template (Applied Per Track)

Each track-0X.md MUST follow this exact structure.

# Track 0X — Prompt Pair

## Style Prompt (Frozen)
[Insert the approved style prompt derived verbatim from the track schema.]

## Lyric Prompt (Generation Target)
[Insert the generation prompt referencing ritual function, constraints, and exclusions.]

## Constraints Checklist (Pre-Generation)
- [ ] Track belief unchanged
- [ ] Function preserved
- [ ] Sequence position intact
- [ ] Anchor relationship respected
- [ ] No narrative reframing
- [ ] No affective uplift

## Generation Notes
(Empty prior to generation. Used only to note mechanical observations.)

Governance Reminder

• Canon is frozen
• Schemas are immutable
• Rejection is enforcement, not failure
• Generation exists to instantiate, not explore
