+# ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI project identity
+
+## Canonical project
+
+The canonical ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI repository designated by the
+project maintainer is:
+
+- https://github.com/Dusk-92/ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI
+
+Copies, mirrors, package caches, downstream forks, and modified versions hosted
+elsewhere are independent unless the canonical project explicitly says
+otherwise. Hosting or mirroring a fork on GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Codeberg, an
+addon service, or another platform does not by itself create an affiliation,
+endorsement, partnership, or ownership relationship with the canonical project.
+
+## Compatibility is not affiliation
+
+ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI targets or references software and game
+environments including World of Warcraft, Turtle WoW-like clients/servers,
+ShaguTweaks-extras, ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI, ClassicAPI, SuperWoW, and other
+compatibility references documented in the repository.
+
+Compatibility, testing, source comparison, API integration, or reference use
+does not imply endorsement by or affiliation with those projects, their
+maintainers, Blizzard Entertainment, or other rights holders.
+
+World of Warcraft and Blizzard Entertainment names, marks, and game assets
+remain the property of their respective rights holders. Other project names and
+trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.
+
+## Upstream relationship
+
+ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI is an independent fork of the ShaguTweaks-extras
+tree maintained at:
+
+- https://github.com/paokkerkir/ShaguTweaks-extras
+
+The fork retains upstream attribution and the MIT license notice found in that
+source tree.
+
+The fork is maintained independently. Nothing in this repository should be read
+as a statement that Shagu, paokkerkir, or another upstream maintainer endorses,
+supports, or is responsible for this fork or its releases.
+
+## External dependencies
+
+ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI and ClassicAPI are required external dependencies.
+SuperWoW is optional and may be used through ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI.
+
+Those projects are not bundled into ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI merely
+because this addon integrates with their APIs or runtime behavior.
+
+See `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md` and `LICENSES/` for dependency and license
+records.
+
+## Support boundary
+
+The ShaguTweaks-Extras-ClassicAPI maintainer is responsible only for code and
+releases published by the canonical project. Downstream forks may alter
+functionality, packaging, licensing notices, or compatibility behavior and
+should be treated as separate projects.
