Needs review. The inventory/provenance evidence is recorded, but some behavior, options, or attribution still lacks a direct user-facing source.

Enables automatic Steam API integration (requires a steam_api64.dll to be in GameData)

Provenance

Origin: EternalJK

Ultimate-origin introduction: df21cc35f5ef in EternalJK (content authored 2019-03-21, integrated 2019-03-21)
Upstream registration evidence: codemp/qcommon/common.cpp:1237
Attribution method: shared-earliest-commit-lineage-order
Attribution confidence: medium
Notes: The earliest authored/submitted introduction is shared by eternaljk, taystjk, japro, vulkan; fork-lineage order selects eternaljk. 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.

Project	Authored	PR opened	Integrated	Commit	Relationship

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.
