Every engine's own stage

Engine	Own stage	Why leave the bench
All five 2D	Universal Stage · Freestyle Stage	one agent on five faces at once; package import/export doors; scripted talk & replay lanes
ASCII · Kinetic	Expression Lab	the lab where both faces were born — per-face dials the bench doesn't carry
Sketch Line	Sketch Expression Studio	the full rig runtime (Dean/Miles casts, mic modes) — a different engine than the bench's drawn face
SVG	SVG MASTER full-body demo	the procedural full-body engine beyond the bench's head-and-shoulders seat
Hybrid	Hybrid Overlay Lab	base casting and zone tuning — authoring, not just wearing
3D · wire figure	Lane root · Wire Figure · Expression Editor	the r12 rig contract and the 52-verb vocabulary, drawn as living wireframe
3D · VRM stage	The VRM Stage live voice gated	full body-verb lane, model library, drop-your-own .vrm; the page opens free — its live-voice lane sits behind the demo gate (no key in this bench)
Feature controls	The Config Door voice arm gated	the registry-driven control panel for the VRM stage; its voice arm is locked behind the demo gate
Where looks travel	Marketplace · Styles Menu	sealed .alive.json packages listed, worn on hover, and downloadable

What this bench is — and is not

Every seat drives its engine through the engine's current live mount (/alive-site/alive-renderers.js, the Shape-A adapter contract). The unified stage contract is a parallel design lane (F2); this page does not depend on it.
Your own package loads here. The load door in the Looks rail reads a .alive.json in your browser and walks the same law every NetShow Alive surface walks — format, structure, seal, then the engine's own per-type sanitize gate. A file that fails any step gets a named refusal instead of a broken seat. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored: the load is session-only, and reloading the page forgets it.
A loaded package routes to the seat that can wear it. Land a Hybrid package on the SVG seat and the bench says so and offers the Hybrid seat — it never pretends one engine can wear another's look.
Look counts are measured from the package shelf at load time, never assumed. A look only lights up if its package parses, passes the integrity law, and its engine has a live wear path today.
ASCII's package exists but no engine can wear it yet — the ASCII wear gate is staged and rides a pending train. The bench says so instead of pretending.
Pose verbs (the 52-verb vocabulary) live on the 3D stages' own pages — no 2D mount consumes them today, so the bench doesn't offer them on 2D seats.
The 3D seat loads the one registered, NetShow-owned model that carries the live-face plate. No WebGL on this device → the seat links out honestly instead of failing.
$0 by construction: no billed call, no wire, no live voice. Live voice stays behind its own gate on its own stage — no key or pass is embedded in this page.
This is a candidate from lane F3 of the S42 studio program — unpublished until the lead intakes it and Michael gates serving.
