Deliver papers along an evidence spine.
PaperSpine5 keeps argument design, figure candidates, human decisions, the canonical manuscript, and publication materials in one inspectable, recoverable local workspace.
Give the AI the complete zero-to-install instruction: download, checksum verification, extraction, host detection, runtime health, and host rediscovery. Every download link and visible version comes from one manifest.
PRERELEASE · MANIFEST DRIVEN
0.3.0-rc.1 has no independent cryptographic signature. Verify SHA-256 before installation. Automatic updates are opt-in and disabled by default.

Loading manifest
This is one PaperSpine5 workspace. The universal package installs it as Skills; Codex, Claude Code, and DSH also have host-native package formats. They are not separate products.
Install PaperSpine5 0.3.0-rc.1 from zero. Read the public manifest, choose one package for the current host, verify its SHA-256 character-for-character, extract to a new persistent directory, read the included install/update/uninstall documentation, and run the package's installer. Require runtime health PASS and a new host task or restart. Start the 127.0.0.1 workspace only for a real integration_job.json. Report every verification layer separately and mark untested layers NOT VERIFIED.

02 / Public provenance
Keep the public identity. Keep the history.
PaperSpine5 uses the existing public repository to preserve the V1–V4 history, community entry point, and update compatibility identity. The V5 RC is frozen by one reviewed commit, one tag, and one prerelease—without publishing the larger multi-project workspace or any paper data.
Paper production should not vanish inside one generation.
Contributions, motivation, evidence, figures, the canonical manuscript, and publication materials each have their own source of truth and human decision points.

04 / Product guide
From configuration to publication cycle, one gated step at a time.
One recoverable state connects five stages. Agents advance work; people own contributions, motivation, complete-figure choices, declarations, and all external actions.
01
CONFIGURE
Configuration
Define the task, materials, language, citations, figure route, and delivery preferences.
02
ANCHOR
Semantic anchors
Confirm contribution and motivation before they constrain downstream claims.
03
FIGURE
Scientific figures
Author complete candidates, review them as complete figures, and preserve decisions.
04
CANONICAL
Canonical manuscript
Consume figures in the paper, then verify final pixels and five readiness dimensions.
05
PUBLICATION
Publication cycle
Prepare target, revision, and transfer materials locally. There is no auto-submit button.
05 / Figure workflow
Scientific figures carry arguments. They are not decoration.
EVIDENCE FLOWREAL CONTRACT · NO PAPER DATA
Paper claim→Candidate→Review→Paper use→Final pixels
One figure story constrains candidates, captions, Results units, and final pixels while keeping keep, redesign, and create decisions traceable.

Community Stargazer Atlas
A real community atlas, separate from product metrics.
The embedded view comes from the repository's existing GitHub Stargazer fetch, processing, and validation pipeline. It is public community distribution—not installs, active users, papers, product capabilities, or institutional adoption.
The four ZIPs share one 176-file core and one core digest. This candidate has no signed installer, second clean-machine validation, macOS/Linux host run, real remote old-to-new update, or complete model-call evidence across hosts. Open Release Beta/276 is outside this RC.
