# Asset provenance

This document records where runtime assets came from and what must be verified
before redistribution. A Git commit proves when bytes entered this repository;
it does not by itself prove authorship or licensing.

## Intake policy

For every new external or supplied asset, record:

- creator or supplying party;
- original source location or delivery channel;
- source filename and repository destination;
- source and destination SHA-256 when copied without modification;
- license or explicit permission;
- any permitted transformations;
- the importing commit or release.

Runtime resources must use `res://` paths. Workstation Sync folders are intake
locations only and must never appear in scenes or resources.

## Generated resources

Godot `.import` sidecars and deterministic shoreline `.tres` meshes are derived
repository resources, not original artwork. `.godot/imported/`, editor caches,
captures, exports, and temporary test data are not tracked.

## Release gate

Before a public binary or source release:

1. Resolve the Seattle Avenue font license and attribution gap above.
2. Record the public owner/studio credit and the contributor's redistribution
   permission in the chosen project license or release records.
3. Confirm the project-wide source/content license selected by the owner.
4. Search exported resources for external filesystem paths.
5. Preserve required third-party notices with the package.
