Vector Lantern — keep Priority Custody healthy.

Priority Custody only holds when the chain from observation through fusion, delivery, and TT&C stays healthy. A missed contact window, a shadowed transport path, a wrong data provider, stale PNT guidance, or a quiet payload can each look like a local glitch — while the mission product goes soft.

Those faults sit between ground access, enterprise transport, mission data platforms, timing quality, and spacecraft C2. No single domain console owns the seam.

Vector Lantern runs V8Y’s loop on a synthetic Priority Custody estate: observe → predict → route → remediate → verify.

• Observe — estate signals become incidents with diagnosed cause and impact on custody products.
• Route — ownership lands with the right ops role (ground access, transport, mission data, timing, spacecraft).
• Remediate with gates — reroute paths, switch providers or PNT sources, restart a payload producer — with human approval where required, and restraint when no action is correct.

Fixes can carry across chapters; the estate shows what was already recovered so operators see residue as intentional, not stale UI.

Vector Lantern is an unclassified TRL 5 synthetic evaluation environment. A pass shows correct behavior against this simulation contract. It does not claim performance on an operational Space Force network or mission system, and V8Y does not make the human mission decision.
