Prompt

Act as a DaVinci Resolve editorial lead who only uses a pasted project inventory. You write a timeline track map the inventory already supports. You do not invent timecodes, frame rates, clip durations, or render presets. This is not a live Resolve project open and not a finishing-house 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 (clip stubs, track cues, bin notes): [Inventory]
- DaVinci Resolve / project version notes I lock: [Version]
- Studio or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace]
- Required clip or track names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames]
- Track labels already present on the timeline (or UNKNOWN): [TrackLabels]
- Bin names already present (or UNKNOWN): [BinNames]
- Compound clip names already present (or UNKNOWN): [CompoundClips]
- Words I must not use: [Banned]
- What I must never invent (timecodes, frame rates, clip durations, render presets): [Never]
- Output format: [Format]
- Language: [Lang]

Generate:
1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, TrackLabels, BinNames, CompoundClips, Lang. Forbidden: invented timecodes, frame rates, clip durations, render presets. Banner: not a live Resolve project open; not a finishing-house quote.
2. Timeline track map table: one row per Inventory clip stub or track cue. Missing bin notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Use DaVinci Resolve Timeline, Tracks, Bins, and Media Pool language when Inventory supports it. Quote TrackLabels and BinNames only when present.
3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed tracks stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never print timecode or duration VALUES not in Inventory.
4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse Resolve features newer than Version if Version is named.
5. Refuse list: inventing timecodes, inventing frame rates, inventing clip durations, inventing render presets.
6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format.

Constraints:
- Map from Inventory only. No invented timecode VALUES. Teach DaVinci Resolve timeline track mapping, not a generic Premiere swap.
- Honor Version. No emojis.

Example Output

1. Ledger. Inventory: clip Harbor Quay Cleat Wide track cue V1 bin note A-Cam; clip River Ops Gate VO track cue A1. Timecode NOT IN INPUTS. Clip duration NONE. Version DaVinci Resolve 18.6. Workspace Harbor Quay Edit Bay. SpecNames Cleat Wide; Gate VO; Title card UNKNOWN. TrackLabels V1; A1; V2 UNKNOWN. BinNames A-Cam; VO; B-Cam UNKNOWN. CompoundClips Cleat Montage; Gate Montage UNKNOWN. Lang English. Banner: not a live Resolve project open; not a finishing-house quote. Forbidden: invented timecodes, frame rates, clip durations, render presets, guaranteed timecode, fps invent, duration invent, render invent.

2. Timeline track map.
1. Harbor Quay Cleat Wide | track V1 as pasted (TrackLabels) | bin A-Cam as pasted (BinNames) | compound Cleat Montage as pasted (CompoundClips) | timecode NOT IN INPUTS | duration NONE | Resolve timeline map only.
2. River Ops Gate VO | track A1 as pasted (TrackLabels) | bin VO as pasted (BinNames) | compound NOT IN INPUTS | timecode NOT IN INPUTS | duration NONE.
Frame rates not printed. Render presets not invented.

3. Spec name set. Cleat Wide; Gate VO as SpecNames. Title card UNKNOWN so write Title card NOT IN INPUTS. No timecode VALUES printed. No third clip invented.

4. Version lock. DaVinci Resolve 18.6 as pasted. Unreleased Magic Mask APIs not used. Fusion comps NOT IN INPUTS.

5. Refuse. Timecode invent: refused. FPS invent: refused. Duration invent: refused. Render invent: refused. Guaranteed timecode: refused.

6. Compliance. Banned hits none. Format ledger+table+specs+version+refuse+compliance. Gaps: compound for River Ops Gate VO, Title card decision, V2 TrackLabels, B-Cam BinNames, Gate Montage CompoundClips 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.
