    "Native use requires macOS 14+; Screen Recording access captures one screen image, while wallpaper mode is available without it. The browser version uses a simulated desktop and needs a mouse/keyboard.",
    "The README attributes interpreter analysis to REA/Ghidra and the port to Claude Code; extracted images/sounds are included upstream. The effects alter an image, not the real desktop files.",
    "True-color rendering and translucent sprite shadows differ from the original palette renderer. The browser cannot capture the actual desktop; no independent parity measurements are supplied.",
    "The author explicitly provides no project license and retains Gemtree credit for original design/art/sound. Desktop decoration and other upstream assets retain their separate rights."

  "requirements_zh": [
    "原生版本需要 macOS 14+；屏幕录制权限用于截取一次屏幕图像，也可无权限使用壁纸模式。浏览器版本使用模拟桌面，需要鼠标和键盘。",
    "README 将解释器分析归于 REA/Ghidra、移植归于 Claude Code；上游包含提取的图像/声音，效果作用于图像而不修改真实桌面文件。",
    "真彩色渲染和半透明精灵阴影与原版调色板渲染不同；浏览器无法捕获真实桌面，未提供独立一致性测量。",
    "作者明确未提供项目许可，原始设计、图像与声音保留 Gemtree 署名；桌面装饰等上游素材保留独立权利。"
