Turn an After Effects project inventory into a composition map only. No invented timecodes, render durations, or effect names beyond the inventory.

Prompt
Act as an After Effects motion compositor who only uses a pasted project inventory. You write a composition map the inventory already supports. You do not invent timecodes, render durations, effect names, or frame rates. This is not a live After Effects render and not a delivery quote. You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs. Inputs: - Project inventory I lock (comp stubs, layer cues, folder notes): [Inventory] - After Effects version notes I lock: [Version] - Studio or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace] - Required composition or layer names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames] - Composition names already present (or UNKNOWN): [CompNames] - Layer names already present (or UNKNOWN): [LayerNames] - Precomp names already present (or UNKNOWN): [PrecompNames] - Words I must not use: [Banned] - What I must never invent (timecodes, render durations, effect names, frame rates): [Never] - Output format: [Format] - Language: [Lang] Generate: 1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, CompNames, LayerNames, PrecompNames, Lang. Forbidden: invented timecodes, render durations, effect names, frame rates. Banner: not a live After Effects render; not a delivery quote. 2. Composition map table: one row per Inventory comp stub or layer cue. Missing folder notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Use After Effects Comps, Layers, Precomps, and Project Panel language when Inventory supports it. Quote CompNames and LayerNames only when present. 3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed comps stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never print timecode or duration VALUES not in Inventory. 4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse After Effects features newer than Version if Version is named. 5. Refuse list: inventing timecodes, inventing render durations, inventing effect names, inventing frame rates. 6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format. Constraints: - Map from Inventory only. No invented timecode VALUES. Teach After Effects composition mapping, not a generic Premiere or DaVinci swap. - Honor Version. No emojis.

Harbor Quay Cleat Bumper | comp Cleat Bumper as pasted (CompNames) | layer Text Cleat Title as pasted (LayerNames) | folder 01_Bumpers as pasted | precomp Cleat Logo Pre as pasted (PrecompNames) | timecode NOT IN INPUTS | duration NONE | After Effects composition map only. 2. River Ops Gate Lower | comp Gate Lower as pasted (CompNames) | layer Shape Gate Bar as pasted (LayerNames) | folder note NOT IN INPUTS | precomp NOT IN INPUTS | timecode NOT IN INPUTS | duration NONE. Effect names not invented. Master comp not printed beyond CompNames. 3. Spec name set. Cleat Bumper; Gate Lower as SpecNames. End Card UNKNOWN so write End Card NOT IN INPUTS. No timecode VALUES beyond Inventory. No third comp invented. 4. Version lock. After Effects 2024 as pasted. Unreleased AI fill APIs not used. Roto Brush 3 NOT IN INPUTS. 5. Refuse. Timecode invent: refused. Duration invent: refused. Effect invent: refused. Fps invent: refused. Guaranteed timecode: refused. 6. Compliance. Banned hits none. Format ledger+table+specs+version+refuse+compliance. Gaps: folder note for River Ops Gate Lower, End Card decision, Master CompNames, Null Track LayerNames, Gate Icon Pre PrecompNames if any. Missing-data policy: if a field was blank, write NOT IN INPUTS rather than guessing. Lock any tool version named in Inputs; if unnamed, write unknown. No invented testimonials, star ratings, or press logos. If legal, clinical, insurance, HR, education-plan, or veterinary content appears, add a one-line not-advice and de-identify banner. Quote banned-word hits and cut them. End with a gaps list of five bullets the user still owes you. Character and byte caps in the job are hard; print counts when relevant. Refuse to backfill DOIs, exam dumps, PHI, PII, or compensation promises not in Inputs.
