# Visual asset provenance

<!-- ASSET_RIGHTS_STATUS: confirmed -->

> Release status: **confirmed by the maintainer on 2026-09-02**. The maintainer states
> that every runtime visual was created with AI under terms permitting this use,
> otherwise created by the maintainer, or supplied with permission; that no protected
> asset from Stardew Valley or another third-party game was copied; and that the
> resulting visuals may be publicly redistributed and modified under the ISC license.

## Scope

This notice covers the visual files under `public/assets/`, their runtime copies under
`src/plugin/client/assets/`, the audited copies emitted to the package-level `assets/`
directory, the packaged project preview at `docs/demo-preview.png`, and the current
runtime captures under `docs/screenshots/`. The screenshots only capture confirmed
in-project visuals listed here. Generated build output is not a separate source of
artwork.

## Evidence available in this repository

- The original slot machine scene, reel symbols, and collectible atlas were generated
  specifically for this project and then resized or assembled locally. The retained
  design plan documents the prompts and deterministic image-processing steps.
- The aquarium, garden, pasture, shared workbench, lamps, scarecrow, watering can,
  residents, and crop/fish/animal lifecycle art were likewise created or derived for
  this project. The `scripts/prepare-*.py` files document local cropping, masking,
  nearest-neighbour resizing, compositing, and synchronized runtime copies.
- The lifecycle and produce SVG atlases are project-authored vector/pixel markup.
  The local 0.9 preview adds code-authored scale, feather/fur and leaf-vein patterns
  to the existing SVG atlases. Preview.2 refines project-authored young/adult animal
  feather, fur and paw clusters without changing atlas framing or transparency.
  The journal entry reuses the original book-stand
  collectible sprite. No new external image or game asset was imported.
- Private feedback screenshots and local QA captures were used as layout references;
  they are not runtime assets and are intentionally excluded from source and package
  archives.
- The repository history does not identify a third-party game asset pack as a source.
  That observation is not, by itself, proof of copyright ownership or permission to
  relicense generated output.

## Maintainer declaration

The maintainer has verified all of the following:

1. Every source image was generated by, created by, or supplied with permission to the
   maintainer.
2. The applicable image-generation service terms permit public redistribution and
   modification of the selected outputs.
3. No screenshot, sprite, texture, logo, or other protected element from Stardew
   Valley or another third-party game was copied into the runtime assets.
4. The maintainer is authorized to distribute the resulting assets under the
   repository's ISC license. Any exception must be listed here with its copyright
   holder, source URL, exact file paths, and separate license.

This declaration clears the listed runtime visuals for public release under the ISC
license alongside the source code. It does not grant rights to third-party trademarks
or works that are not included in this repository.
