# Transmission Drop Queue

Status: `review_only_closed_until_user_says_send_transmission`

This queue holds stream-safe interruption drops that can be manually inserted into OBS or the stream-ready mix after the operator says the trigger phrase.

## Current ready drop

- **Sonic-Forage hacked takeover commercial 001**
- MP4: `docs/streaming/operator_drops/sonic_forage_hacked_takeover_commercial_001.mp4`
- Duration: 64 seconds
- Trigger phrase: `send transmission`
- Built locally: PIL + Edge TTS + procedural chiptune + FFmpeg
- Paid API used: false
- Auto insert: false

## Safety gate

The Replicate/Happy Horse API key pasted in chat is treated as exposed. Rotate it before any paid API call. The current commercial was generated locally and does not use that key.

## OBS use

1. Add the MP4 as a Media Source named `HACKED_TAKEOVER_COMMERCIAL`.
2. Set it to restart playback when source becomes active.
3. Put it in scene `INTERGALACTIC_BREACH_RADIO` or a new scene `TRANSMISSION_TAKEOVER`.
4. When operator says `send transmission`, cut to that scene.
5. After 64 seconds, return to `AUTO_SHOW` or the next broadcaster scene.

## Future Happy Horse / Replicate use

Use only after explicit approval with a rotated key and a specific spend cap. Suggested prompt:

```text
A trippy 8-bit cyber-rave broadcast takeover commercial for Sonic-Forage Afterparty Forge. The signal glitches, shuts down, then reboots into an intergalactic radio station. Neon pixel art, CRT scanlines, hacked terminal overlays, alien rave grid, proof hub flashes, retro arcade energy, safe broadcast UI, no logos, no copyrighted characters, no drug instructions, no gambling, no private information.
