Glossary

observer-ref — Reference to an Observer Profile. Formalizes sensory, attention, and epistemological characteristics of the observer. Enables quantifiable analysis. See observer-profiles/ and schemas/observer-model-0.1.json.
context — Environmental constraints of the performed situation. Not properties of the trick itself.
spectators — Spectator configuration. Roles determine exposure, agency, and inferential load.
belief-layer — Belief state per spectator role. Keys are role identifiers (e.g., 'assisting', 'observing').
belief-claims — Optional, action-anchored propositions asserted for a role or documented participant (TAM-57). They complement aggregate belief_layer measures without copying TCS mechanics or evaluator results.
post-inference — What spectators conclude after the effect has ended. Inference does not require exposure.
failure-attribution — Contributing factors to failure. Often multiple factors combine. First element is primary.
catalog-ref — Optional pointer to Conjuring Atlas library entry. Pointer only, no duplication.
tcs-refs — Optional references to specific TCS sequence/step IDs for cross-layer linking
psychology — Psychological annotation of the analysis (misdirection, forcing, belief manipulation).
metadata — Shared metadata schema (i18n, custom)
