Summary

Document which Jackdaw ideas are being adapted, which code may be referenced, and the license/attribution rules for any direct copying.

Why

Blacksite should borrow design lessons without becoming an untracked fork. Any copied code needs correct attribution and source review.

Implementation notes

Create a canonical docs page or ADR for Jackdaw-inspired adoption policy.
Add an "Inspired by" note in docs/editor/README.md.
If direct code is copied, preserve license notes and record source URL plus upstream commit hash.
Prefer clean-room reimplementation for geometry, terrain, and operator APIs.

Acceptance criteria

Repo has one canonical policy document.
Future tickets distinguish design-inspired, API-inspired, and code-derived work.
No copied code lands without source and license notes.
PR checklist includes Jackdaw source/license confirmation when relevant.

Docs/tests

Docs only. Update docs/editor/README.md and root README only if visible workflow changes.
