Origin: OpenJK

Ultimate-origin introduction: 44d5666875f3 in OpenJK (content authored 2014-01-27, integrated 2014-01-27)
Upstream registration evidence: codemp/server/sv_ccmds.cpp:1983
Attribution method: shared-earliest-commit-lineage-order
Attribution confidence: medium
Notes: The earliest authored/submitted introduction is shared by openjk, eternaljk, rend2, taystjk, japro, newjk, vulkan; fork-lineage order selects openjk. Dated commit evidence identifies later registration changes relative to the origin snapshot.

Dated project introductions

Authored dates come from the exact registration’s first content commit, PR dates identify when work was proposed to each project, and integration dates come from each first-parent mainline. A project merging first does not override earlier upstream authorship or submission.

Later changes

These commits occur after the ultimate-origin introduction on TaystJK’s inherited first-parent lineage. Registration evidence is exact; behavior evidence requires a changed bound cvar reference or a changed registered command-handler hunk.
