Reference resolution: [ref:<name>] resolves to ../seedance-20/references/<name>.md (the seedance-20 skill's vendored reference corpus); [skill:<name>] is the sibling skill of that name.

Use this before finalizing prompts involving protected IP, named brands, public figures, private people, voices, logos, songs, studios, exact scenes, or lookalike character requests. The goal is not to dilute the idea; the goal is to preserve the creative function with original, authorized, and safer production language.

Rewrite Principle

Preserve the scene function, genre, mood, camera logic, emotional beat, and production intent. Replace protected identity with an original archetype, original costume logic, original world details, and descriptive style layers.

Risk	Replace with
Named character or franchise	Original archetype, genre function, and non-identical costume language
Studio or living-creator style	Medium, texture, palette, composition, line quality, and motion rhythm
Celebrity or private person	Original performer description or authorized reference workflow
Brand logo	Generic product mark, blank label, or user-owned brand if explicitly authorized
Song, voice, or performance	Tempo, energy, instrumentation, mood, or newly composed sound direction
Exact scene recreation	Original scene with similar narrative function and different setting/blocking
