Provenance Checklist

Use this before claiming ownership or publishing artifacts.

• Identify original upstream source, if any.
• Record fork URL, commit, tag, or archive source.
• Preserve third-party notices and license files.
• Separate local patches from imported code where practical.
• Record binary build inputs, toolchain versions, and source commit.
• Publish checksums for release assets.
• Mark unknown-origin content as blocked until resolved.
