NLE bridge

Handoff to the edit suite. EditForge tracks the cut and its status; the binary timeline lives in the NLE.

Cut

Timebase

CMX3600 EDL
Picture conform list. Loads in Resolve, Premiere, or Final Cut.

Handoff

Out: EDL / AAF / XML conform list plus the cut ID and preset lane.
Back: Locked timeline reference and a render path for the deliverable matrix.
Media: Shared-storage paths, never copies — proxies generated for remote review only.
Gate: Rubric decision stays in EditForge; the NLE cannot mark a cut shipped.

Boundary law

EditForge owns project ID, rubric, and the ship decision
The engine owns pixels, GPU, and realtime playback
No silent auto-ship across this bridge
