Asset Ledger

Use this when a run or demo needs provenance evidence but was not created entirely through generate-short, or when an old candidate demo needs a reviewed machine-readable ledger before promotion.

What This Skill Owns

• Creating or updating asset-ledger.json.
• Adding generated-artifact entries for known stage outputs.
• Preserving explicit entries for stock, local footage, gameplay, external audio, generated images, model outputs, fonts, icons, and other reusable media.
• Adding local file hashes when files exist.
• Producing warnings that explain what publish-prep is likely to reject.

Use With Publish Prep

Pass the written ledger into publish-prep:

{
  "videoPath": "runs/demo/render/video.mp4",
  "scriptPath": "runs/demo/script/script.json",
  "assetLedgerPath": "runs/demo/provenance/asset-ledger.json",
  "outputDir": "runs/demo/publish-prep"
}

Generated local artifacts can usually use generated-local or repo-generated. Downloaded stock, YouTube-origin media, gameplay, music, SFX, fonts, icons, and public-source clips need explicit source, license, permission, attribution, and Content ID evidence before promotion.
