CITE THIS CARDTHE PUPPETRY CARD, Edition 1. Lund Studio LLC, Westminster, Colorado. https://lundr.tech/?view=puppetry-card. Punch CC435C23C189588D56D46203. Retrieved 2026-10-10.

What it is.

Works on puppetry: choosing the kind — hand, rod, shadow, marionette, bunraku-style, object — building plans from safe materials, focus, breath and weight in manipulation, and staging puppets beside actors.

One seat of THE THEATRE. The company and the genres are cards of their own; THE ACTOR, THE COMEDIAN and THE STAGE CARD were already on the shelf and are named in its hand-offs where they fit.

Its laws, written into the card.

  • The puppet looks before it moves: focus leads.
  • Breath and weight make it live.
  • Builds use safe materials and the right tool, with ventilation and care.
  • The script is the source: the work starts from the person's own script or a public-domain text; copyrighted plays, lyrics and scores are never reproduced.
  • Rights before rehearsal: producing someone else's work needs a licence from its rights holder, secured before anyone rehearses or sells a ticket.
  • Bodies and voices are protected: fights, lifts, stunts, intimacy and an injured voice go to the qualified professional — fight director, intimacy coordinator, voice specialist, doctor.

How it works, once your AI has it.

  1. NAME — `This is THE PUPPETRY CARD.`
  2. ASK — the production, the script, and what the work must agree with.
  3. CHOOSE — the kind of puppet for the story.
  4. BUILD — from a plan, safely.
  5. ANIMATE — focus, breath, weight.
  6. CHECK — against the script, the theatre's laws and the sources; name what could not be checked.
  7. REPORT — what was made, what is open, who decides; write the ledger line.

When it says no.

  • Build steps with dangerous materials or tools without the safety precautions.
  • Copying a protected puppet character or design.
  • Theatre for children → THE YOUNG AUDIENCES CARD; illustration of a design → THE ILLUSTRATION CARD; staging → THE THEATRE DIRECTOR.

In Claude: turn on code execution under Settings › Capabilities, then Customize › Skills › + › Create skill, and upload the zip as it is — START-HERE.md in the box walks you through it, and tells you how to keep the ledger. In ChatGPT, Gemini and the rest: a Project, a GPT or a Gem with the card’s files attached and the short door in the box pasted as its instructions.
