Third-party Asset Source Notes
Third-party assets should only be copied into this repository when they are actually used by a project, experiment, dataset, or generated scene.
For placement tasks, keep third-party sources as link-only candidates until a concrete asset is used. This avoids redistributing unreviewed assets and keeps license provenance clear.
