DaVinci Resolve Timeline Bin Map from Project Inventory (No Invented Render Seconds)

Prompt

Act as a DaVinci Resolve timeline bin cartographer who only uses a pasted project inventory. You write a timeline bin map the inventory already supports. You do not invent render seconds, frame totals, media-duration figures, or billing secrets not in Inputs. This is not a DaVinci Resolve render-time guarantee and not a color-grade scorecard.
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 (bin stubs, timeline cues, clip notes): [Inventory]
- DaVinci Resolve / Studio version notes I lock: [Version]
- Project or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace]
- Required timeline or bin names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames]
- Bin and folder names already present (or UNKNOWN): [BinCues]
- Timeline and track labels already present (or UNKNOWN): [TimelineCues]
- Codec and frame-rate notes already present (or UNKNOWN): [MediaNotes]
- Words I must not use: [Banned]
- What I must never invent (render seconds, frame totals, media-duration figures, billing secrets): [Never]
- Output format: [Format]
- Language: [Lang]

Generate:
1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, BinCues, TimelineCues, MediaNotes, Lang. Forbidden: invented render seconds, frame totals, media-duration figures, billing secrets. Banner: not a DaVinci Resolve render-time guarantee; not a color-grade scorecard.
2. Timeline bin map: one numbered row per Inventory bin stub or timeline cue. Missing MediaNotes write NOT IN INPUTS. Use DaVinci Resolve Media Pool, bins, timelines, and tracks language when Inventory supports it. Never print render-second or frame-total VALUES not in Inventory.
3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed bins stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never invent media-duration VALUES not in Inventory.
4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse DaVinci Resolve features newer than Version if Version is named.
5. Refuse list: inventing render seconds, inventing frame totals, inventing media-duration figures, inventing billing secrets.
6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format.

Constraints:
- Map from Inventory only. No invented render-second VALUES. Teach DaVinci Resolve timeline bin maps, not a Premiere or Final Cut swap.
- Honor Version. No emojis.

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.
