Atrinik website

This repository is the sole source and deployment owner for the static, MIT-licensed atrinik.org website. It deliberately contains no account, gameplay, payment, repository-managed analytics or tracking, advertising, or server-side runtime.

Atrinik keeps people in creative control of its game world. Generated visual and audio assets—including pixel art, graphics, animation, music, and sound effects—are not accepted as final game content. They may be used only as clearly identified temporary design drop-ins while suitable human-created replacements are found or made. For maps, quests, dialogue, and lore, a human content creator may use generative tools to help shape terrain or develop writing while directing, reviewing, and taking responsibility for the result. The owning repositories are documenting that policy and auditing the existing corpus before making an unqualified blanket authorship claim. Human Atrinik contributors and appropriately licensed work from Crossfire, Daimonin, and other upstream creators retain their exact authorship, provenance, notices, and licenses; “human-led” describes creative direction and responsibility, not solely Atrinik-original work or one shared license.

The project's software is developed primarily through Codex-driven agentic workflows under human direction, review, provenance controls, tests, and repository validation. Direct human-written code contributions are welcome under the same gates. “Generative AI” here means tools that synthesize creative content or code, not gameplay systems such as creature or NPC AI.

Atrinik began in 2009 under founder and original lead Zoey Rose. She led its human-developed beginning alongside the wider Atrinik Development Team. The maintained GPL C Classic line credits Atrinik, Daimonin, Crossfire, and wider upstream/community contributors through its authoritative records; 2011 was a major development and release era, not the founding year. The new Go server, Rust client/editor/renderer/toolkit, and Protobuf protocol are Codex-driven MIT replacement foundations governed by evidence-gated provenance. Independent implementation is the default where exact reuse is unproven. Exact historical reuse follows the local record and canonical grant registry; admitted destination material may be MIT-relicensed, while the Classic repository remains GPL-distributed. The foundations are not yet a complete game release. Follow the replacement roadmap for current readiness.

Four temporary OpenAI-generated concept images on atrinik.org are not game content. They remain transparently recorded design drop-ins in src/data/media.json and are tracked for suitable human-created replacements by website issue #22.

The public information architecture keeps the useful journeys from Atrinik's former project portal without reviving its forum stack: understand the world, find the maintained Classic line, follow the next-generation roadmap, and reach the owning GitHub repositories. Classic and replacement readiness and licenses remain visibly distinct on every relevant page.

Original website concept artwork is retained under artwork/originals/ as provenance evidence. Content-addressed, optimized derivatives are published from public/media/; their exact source Git blob object IDs, digests, dimensions, transformations, licenses, notices, and alternative text are recorded in src/data/media.json.

Every indexable route constructs a closed, typed page identity through src/lib/metadata.ts: one unique title and description, canonical URL, robots policy, internally consistent Open Graph/Twitter fields, preview image dimensions, and alternative text. atrinik-now is the documented sitewide preview fallback until issue #22 supplies approved replacement artwork; routes can select a more relevant record from the same validated media catalog. The homepage also emits the canonical Atrinik WebSite identity as safely serialized inert JSON-LD. The 404 is noindex and deliberately has no canonical, social-preview, or structured identity.

The new crystal favicon and pinned-tab mask are compact repository-authored SVG files. Their closed authorship, license, source, hash, Git blob, dimensions, transformation, purpose, and notice records live in src/data/icons.json.

Development

Use Node 24.18.1 and npm 11.16.0:

npm ci
npm run check
npm run build
npm run deploy:dry-run

The build writes a self-contained static site to dist/. Validation rejects unproven media, mutable download coordinates, missing attribution or alt text, unsafe links, repository-authored client JavaScript, broken internal links, and page-weight budget violations. It permits only inert, locally serialized type="application/ld+json" data blocks; executable scripts, script sources, event handlers, and JavaScript assets remain forbidden. Generated release evidence belongs under ignored build/.

src/data/downloads.json is a reviewed immutable catalog, not a live release feed. Its closed schema keeps a release repository separate from an artifact role and binds exact release evidence. Drafts, prereleases, zero-asset releases, and guessed or mutable links fail closed; an empty catalog keeps the Classic release-page fallback useful without JavaScript or a GitHub request.

Cloudflare Pages uses one Git-integrated project. main serves the canonical atrinik.org; www.atrinik.org permanently redirects to it. Cloudflare builds all non-production branches and posts its native pages.dev preview link on same-repository pull requests. The repository has no manual upload path, custom preview hostname, or Cloudflare credential. See docs/DEPLOYMENT.md for the exact preview, domain, health, and rollback contract.

Zero-JavaScript, cookie, analytics, and tracking claims apply to the built artifact, not every Cloudflare response. Cloudflare may inject bot/security JavaScript or a dashboard-managed Web Analytics beacon, set strictly necessary cookies, or serve a challenge response with different HTML, scripts, cookies, and CSP. Ordinary static responses retain a script-src 'none' CSP that blocks injected scripts; audit the actual production response as described in docs/DEPLOYMENT.md.

The replacement roadmap is atrinik/atrinik#168.
