Algebraic geometry references that study this triple? [closed]

This question cannot be answered in its current form, because critical information is missing.

This question was closed; new answers can no longer be added. Users with the Vote on Holds ability may vote to reopen this question if it has been improved or closed incorrectly.

A seed (for lack of a better name)

$$ \mathcal S = (\mathcal I, \Gamma, \Pi) $$

is a $\Pi$-equivariant 4-sheeted branched cover

$$ p: \mathcal I \to \widehat{\Bbb C} $$

equipped with a distinguished embedded graph

$$ \Gamma \subset \mathcal I $$

representing the intrinsic degeneration locus.

Question. Hurwitz theory, the theory of D'essins, and related areas all seem to focus on particular objects within the triple of $\mathcal S$, but I am unaware of a program that collects them into one object and studies them holistically.

Are there resources that I've possibly missed, that do specifically study the triple $$\mathcal S = (\mathcal I, \Gamma, \Pi)$$

especially when the generators $\pi \in \Pi$ are defined as piecewise mappings?
