# Publication and rights boundary

Status: active for Milestone 5

Chartsmith's internal working repository contains more material than the public
submission needs: pre-Build-Week history, bulk run payloads, local path evidence,
and acquired design-reference media. Publishing that entire Git history would
expose irrelevant machine details and create unnecessary redistribution risk.

Milestone 5 therefore publishes a deterministic clean export generated by
`scripts/build_public_release.py`. The internal repository remains the
provenance authority. The public export records the exact internal source commit
and contains:

- the promoted workflow and runner;
- the judge-facing web product;
- ten compact accepted source-to-redesign evidence bundles;
- the text-only, source-linked design-reference index;
- current product, architecture, evaluation, and Build Week documentation;
- tests, validation scripts, the MIT license, and third-party notices.

The export excludes:

- `archive/`, `docs/history/`, historical and pre-Build-Week configs;
- bulk or ignored run payloads and machine-local inventories;
- root research material and unreviewed acquired media;
- local Codex skills and machine-specific handoff artifacts;
- design-reference image copies and acquisition logs.

The public repository is not a claim that the product began during Build Week.
`PUBLIC_RELEASE.md`, the Build Week plan, current milestone evidence, and the
recorded internal commit identify the pre-existing baseline and the work added
during the event.

The seven synthetic portfolio sources are CC0 1.0. Three attributed official
OpenAI figures remain third-party material. See `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md`.
