Human Authorship Policy · Studio Prose + Local Workspace File Upload
All submissions must be authored genuinely by human specialists without external language models. Write your Proposal, instruction.md, and README.md directly inside Steps 02–04; in Step 05 (Workspace Files), you may either write code in the editor or upload local UTF-8 files/folders from your computer.
