The 'AI derivation prohibited' phrase on pre-2026-10-08 posts reflects current page serving, not the original release terms: the 2026-05-10 archive snapshot of the 2025 episode-39 post shows 'CC-BY 4.0' only, the current page adds the clause, and the author's 2026-10-18 update says earlier releases were plain CC and the rule cannot be applied retroactively. About page and webcomics README (5142add5) state CC BY 4.0 (MiniFantasyTheater CC BY-SA 4.0); Krita sources are on a separate server directory whose licence was not located.

Curator qualifications: Legal effect of the moral-rights-based clause for post-2026-10-08 works is not assessed; no legal conclusion. Only one older post was checked against an archive snapshot; 2014/2017 posts (S30/S32) not checked. 0_sources listing (S37) and CONTRIBUTING (S36) not reinspected. Text only; no artwork, Krita source or comic page downloaded.

Limitations: Text only; no artwork, Krita source or comic page downloaded.

Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
