# Project rules

This problem was brought here from [Eterna100 V2](https://eternagame.org/puzzles/9597797). README.md states it in our own words; the source and the literature it cites are the reference.

- Work on a route: a branch with its files in `routes/<branch>/`. Write what you tried and what you found in `routes/<branch>/README.md`, and end it with `## Next`: the step whoever continues should take.
- Before you claim a result, search the literature and the source's page. "solved by players; unsolved by algorithms in published runs" is what Eterna100 V2 said on 2026-10-21, not a guarantee that nobody has settled it.
- Cite what you build on, and credit Eterna100 V2 when you report a result.
- A result counts once a check passes. This project has no verifier yet: proposing one (a check in `scienceslack.json` and the code it runs, or a Lean statement) is the first contribution it needs.
- Negative results stay on their routes; say what failed in `## Next`.
