Partially verified: the curator re-read S23, S24; S25 was not re-read by the curator and rests on the producer's pinned reading. CELSYS's official tutorial for the Toei Animation Digital Timesheet documents Action (key drawing), cell (in-between), CAM (camera work), Direction (shooting instruction) and Sound (name + dialogue/SE) columns plus BOOK layers, and CLIP STUDIO PAINT timeline data exports as .xdts for import into the Action or Cell field.

Curator qualifications: Partially verified: the curator re-read S23, S24; S25 was not re-read by the curator and rests on the producer's pinned reading. Curator GET 2026-10-23 of the sources not re-read (mechanical source evidence, not semantic verification): S25: HTTP 200, bytes differ from the producer pin. Documents read 2026-10-22; not legal advice; no software run. Paper exposure-sheet layouts (Japanese and Western) remain unestablished; Wikipedia dope-sheet layout (S25) carries a one-source tag and was not re-read. xdts format not inspected; English page is machine translated.

Limitations: Documents read 2026-10-22; not legal advice; no software run.

Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
