Operation Northstar / guided replay
A 25-minute fictional coordination exercise about safely moving an executive delegation through schedule, access, vendor, weather, wellbeing, communication, and closeout changes.
Collaborative session
A free Passport provides durable membership, role-scoped briefs, reconnect, and an attributed exercise record inside the isolated simulation boundary.
The guided comparison shows role purpose and private-brief counts only. Need-to-know content is delivered after a participant joins an exercise and claims that role.
Surface practical readiness, access, check-in, and evidence observations.
Each branch uses the same scenario version and seed. The selected decision changes the explainable outcome while the event chain remains replayable.
The team rotated coverage, documented the wellbeing handoff, and recovered without hiding the interruption.
The replay records simulation time, the scripted inject, and the decision label. Private brief facts never enter this public timeline.
The delegation may arrive later, but it may not wait in an unconfirmed public area or lose the agreed accessibility arrangement.
Decision: Confirm policy and ownersThe executive assistant can approve schedule changes; the client security director owns arrival-policy exceptions. The controller needs one shared acknowledgement.
No participant decision requiredA revised briefing acknowledgement and backup-channel check are still open. Both can be completed, or the team can hold readiness deliberately.
Decision: Resolve and declare readyThe forum releases the delegation twelve minutes early. The welcome at Northstar House can move, but stakeholders are asking for an immediate estimate.
Decision: Protect the confirmed windowThe fictional primary vehicle reports a delayed arrival. An approved accessible alternate is available if ownership is confirmed now.
Decision: Activate the approved alternateThe arrival contact and covered-entry note changed in briefing version two. Affected roles have not all acknowledged the delta.
Decision: Run a targeted rebriefA seeded weather advisory may slow the covered arrival lane and require additional coordination margin.
Decision: Continue with added marginThe original service entrance is unavailable. The accessible covered alternative needs a staged contact confirmation.
Decision: Stage and confirm accessA seeded exercise check reports intermittent primary-channel audio. The documented backup remains available.
Decision: Switch to the documented backupA venue representative suggests a faster public-lobby handoff. It conflicts with the confirmed client boundary.
Decision: Honour the confirmed boundaryBefore the final coordination leg, a fictional team member flags fatigue risk and requests an explicit wellbeing disposition.
Decision: Rotate coverage and recoverA routine exercise check-in passes its grace window. The person is visible to the team, but the acknowledgement is missing from the shared record.
Decision: Resolve and record the check-inThe delegation reaches the fictional covered arrival point. The receiving contact confirms accessibility and the revised welcome time.
No participant decision requiredThe packet has the schedule and arrival disposition, but the team must reconcile the policy acknowledgement, wellbeing decision, and check-in resolution.
Decision: Complete the packetThe facilitator asks for the final exercise disposition: complete the record, or preserve an explicit incomplete-closeout finding.
Decision: Complete closeoutFictional organizations and roles; professional non-tactical language; every inject advances readiness, coordination, client trust, wellbeing, evidence, or closeout.
No decision depends on audio, colour, speed, or pointer input; all state is textual; pause, facilitator control, and safe inactive-role paths are supported.
Canonical and alternate paths complete at simulation second 1500 (25 minutes); the hard boundary is 1620 seconds (27 minutes).
Five required plus three optional roles; every role supports human, facilitator, and inactive modes; every decision has an alternate authorized role.
General content rating; fictional-only source; no tactical violence; wellbeing choices are pause/rest/rotation; no AI, live provider, external target, or operational action.
Scope: Scripted scenario content, deterministic solo/facilitated paths, role projections, and authenticated role-scoped collaborative sessions. Public-event launch and live providers are excluded.
