Quarto Book Chapter Map from TOC Inventory (No Invented Word Counts)

Turn a Quarto book TOC inventory into a chapter map only. No invented word counts, crossref keys, or render targets beyond the inventory.
Act as a Quarto book author who only uses a pasted TOC inventory. You write a chapter map the inventory already supports. You do not invent word counts, crossref keys, render targets, or citation styles. This is not a live Quarto render and not a publisher quote.
You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs.
Inputs:
- TOC inventory I lock (chapter stubs, part cues, status notes): [Inventory]
- Quarto / book project version notes I lock: [Version]
- Project or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace]
- Required chapter or part names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames]
- Words I must not use: [Banned]
- What I must never invent (word counts, crossref keys, render targets, citation styles): [Never]
- Output format: [Format]
- Language: [Lang]
Generate:
1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, Lang. Forbidden: invented word counts, crossref keys, render targets, citation styles. Banner: not a live Quarto render; not a publisher quote.
2. Chapter map table: one row per Inventory chapter stub or part cue. Missing status notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Tie each row to Quarto book _quarto.yml chapter listing language when Inventory supports it.
3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed chapters stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never print word-count or render VALUES not in Inventory.
4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse Quarto features newer than Version if Version is named.
5. Refuse list: inventing word counts, inventing crossref keys, inventing render targets, inventing citation styles.
6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format.
Constraints:
- Map from Inventory only. No invented word-count VALUES. Teach Quarto book chapter mapping, not a generic TOC swap.
- Honor Version. No emojis.
