# NOTICE

## Goodwill Attribution

Anvil is an independent Hellion Forge plugin for FFXIV, built as a clean-room
re-implementation. The plugin exists because the upstream Craftimizer plugin
went dormant when the Dalamud SDK moved from API level 14 to 15.

**Inspired by [Craftimizer](https://github.com/WorkingRobot/Craftimizer) by
Asriel Camora (MIT).**

This attribution is a goodwill marker, not a legal requirement. Anvil does not
contain Craftimizer source code or paraphrased code patterns. The clean-room
pipeline used official FFXIV game mechanics documentation, the
[Artisan](https://github.com/PunishXIV/Artisan) plugin (as a mechanics
reference for crafting domain values, with the "pattern and values may be
adapted, no 1:1 code port" rule), and direct Lumina sheet inspection as the
sole sources for the simulator and recipe data.

## Crafting Domain Patterns

Crafting mechanic constants (action CP/durability costs, condition multipliers,
buff durations) are FFXIV game data and belong to Square Enix. The values were
cross-checked against the publicly available datamining repository
(`xivapi/ffxiv-datamining`) and against the Artisan plugin's documented
constants. The Artisan plugin is GPL-3.0; Anvil does not port its code,
only consumes its documented mechanic values which are themselves the
underlying game's data.

## Anonymisation Policy

Anvil follows the Hellion Forge clean-room policy: no class names, method
names, or code structures were imported from any external plugin. Namespace
layout, type design, and threading model are independent.
