 ## Verification
 
-The manifest records the SHA-256 value of every expected GLB. After materialization, verify a file with:
-
-```bash
-sha256sum meshes/<group_key>/<stage>/<filename>.glb
-```
-
-The expected values are in the corresponding `mesh.sha256` field. `manifest/sha256sums.txt` verifies the release metadata files themselves.
+The public manifest does not include a SHA-256 field for every mesh. The public release does not publish per-mesh or TAR checksums. Hugging Face upload integrity and the manifest structure provide the release verification surface. The TAR member names and prompt records are listed in the corresponding manifest. The packer verifies source meshes when input checksums are available, while per-mesh checksums are intentionally omitted from the public schema.
 
 ## Attribution and limitations
 
-The meshes are released as the Pixal3D mesh and prompt data associated with EVA01. The prompts describe the base object and the sequential edit instructions; they are not human-authored annotations for every geometric property. The GLB files may contain vertex colors and material information supported by the source generation pipeline. Consumers should validate rendering and downstream licensing requirements for their intended use.
