| description | The consistency layer for long-form comic production. Provides world bible infrastructure, character identity systems, style memory, and long-sequence orchestration to maintain artistic coherence across 1000+ panels. |
Comic Consistency Layer
Purpose: This layer ensures that characters, style, world state, and artistic decisions remain coherent across long serialized comic projects. It is the bridge between the universal rules in comic-core and the specific artistic styles in comic-styles.

How the Consistency Layer Works
World Bible (single source of truth)
↓
comic-world-bible-system → generates DNA, model sheets, negative libraries
↓
comic-character-consistency-system + comic-style-memory-system
↓
comic-long-sequence-orchestrator (maintains state across arcs)
↓
comic-image-generation-adapter (executes with consistency artifacts injected)
When to Load comic-consistency
- Any project expected to exceed ~50 panels
- When character identity or artistic style must survive model changes or long time gaps
- When building production pipelines that require human review gates
- When training or managing consistency models (LoRAs, IP-Adapter references)
Design Goals for 1000+ Panel Projects
- World Bible as the single source of truth
- Layered conditioning (multiple techniques at sub-max weights)
- Persistent world state tracking
- Automated drift detection with human escalation
- Style memory decoupled from character identity

comic-styles (consumes consistency artifacts)
comic-direction (Producer requires a valid bible to greenlight; Director decisions log into version_history)
comic-pipeline (orchestrates full workflows)
Consistency at scale is not a technical trick — it is an information architecture problem.
