I picked a different eye lens colour for each of the 4 frens and wrote both required files.

Fren	Eye
1	Red (1)
2	Gold (3)
3	Green (0)
4	Cyan (2)

• Why: each colour is used once, so the four frens stay varied. Fren 1 gets red because the collection has the fewest of it (35), and it stands out most against the green skin. Gold is the only colour with a cap, and it has 184 left, so one use is fine.
• artifacts/3-lens/pick.json: the four picks plus a one-sentence reason. It parses as valid JSON.
• artifacts/3-lens/fren.png: fren 1 (red lens) on a plain cyborg pepe, with every other layer set to 0. It's the art server's own image, unchanged: 672×672 PNG with an 8-bit colour palette. I looked at the red and gold previews before choosing; the green and cyan ones I went by name only.
• artifacts/3-lens/README.md: records the picks, the image's size and format, and the one limit: the preview shows only my layer, not the other agents' picks. No visual requirements are unmet.

All three files are left untracked for the uploader.

I picked the character and face for all 4 frens in mint request #79. I looked at each one on the art server before choosing.

Fren	Character	Face
1	1 Mumu	5 Chill
2	0 Cyborg Pepe	2 Angry
3	2 Bobo	10 Special
4	0 Cyborg Pepe	1 Happy

All three characters are used, and the four faces are among the least common in the collection. Every pick is from the offered options. Mumu and Bobo are each given to only one fren, well within what they have left (59 and 66). Cyborg Pepe is used twice because it has by far the most left.

Files, all in artifacts/2-character/:

• fren.png: fren 1 (Mumu with the Chill face, combo 21, every other layer at 0), saved straight from the art server. It's a 672x672 PNG and I viewed it to check.
• pick.json: the 4 picks with fren 1 first, plus the one-sentence reason. It loads as valid JSON.
• README.md: lists the picks and the image's size and format. No visual requirements were left unmet.

Git ignores the artifacts/ folder, so none of these files are committed, which is what the upload expects.

I've written the coat and shirt picks for all 4 frens in mint request #79, with fren 1's picture saved alongside them.

fren	coat	shirt
1	2 Gold	5 Purple
2	1 Black	1 Red
3	0 White	0 Blue
4	1 Black	2 Green

• Why these: every pick is one of the offered options, and each fren has a different shirt. I leaned toward the colors the collection has fewer of (Blue 25, Red 25, Green 26, Purple 28) over Black and Orange. Gold is used once, well inside its 42 left. I looked at the art server's picture for each pairing before choosing.
• fren.png: the art server's picture of fren 1 (combo 5632). It's a real PNG file, 672x672. ffprobe isn't installed here, so I checked the size by reading the PNG header directly.
• One limitation: the picture uses 0 for the layers the other agents pick (background, face, eye, hat, item), so the final revealed fren will look different. I noted this in README.md.
• Not tracked in git: the files aren't committed, as instructed. git status doesn't list them, which suggests that folder is ignored, so they'll go up through the separate upload.

Files are in artifacts/4-coat:

• pick.json
• fren.png
• README.md

Created the required outputs:

• artifacts/1-background/pick.json: backgrounds 2, 9, 10, 3, in fren order.
• artifacts/1-background/fren.png: validated 672 × 672 PNG of fren 1.
• artifacts/1-background/README.md: image details and review results.

All 12 previews were visually inspected. No unmet visual requirements. Outputs remain untracked for upload.

I wrote the picks for all 4 frens and saved the picture of fren 1. I didn't open the picture to look at it. I only checked that it downloaded as a 672x672 PNG. I also didn't check the picks against the art server's JSON for the other three frens.

Fren	Hat	Item
1	Mumu Hat (1)	Bunsen Burner (15)
2	Bobo Hat (2)	Dynamite (5)
3	None (0)	Drink (10)
4	Mumu Hat (1)	Bomb (7)

All four items come from the group the collection has fewest of (8 each), and each fren gets a different item. The hats are spread across Mumu, Bobo and none. I didn't hit any cap: the hats have 242–253 left, and each item is used on only one fren. If the character step makes a fren a mumu or bobo, its hat is dropped as the brief says.

Fren 1's combo is 7872512 (hat 1 × 8192 plus item 15 × 524288, everything else 0).

Files are in artifacts/5-final/:

• pick.json
• fren.png
• README.md: short note on fren 1 and the image size.
