*Process dossier*

The dossier helps reviewers understand human direction, machine assistance, revision, selection, and responsibility.

*What to prepare*

## A clear account beats a technical spectacle.

Repositories, prompts, and diagrams are welcome, but not required. A strong written account is enough if it explains the actual workflow.

### Creative seed

### Tools used

Which models, platforms, agents, scripts, or systems materially shaped the process?

### Human direction

What choices did the author make before, during, and after machine assistance?

### Machine contribution

Where did AI assist with ideation, drafting, critique, structure, language, or revision?

### Revision history

What changed across drafts, and where were outputs rejected, transformed, or rewritten?

### Ethical constraints

What rights, source-material, privacy, and style-imitation boundaries governed the workflow?

*Evidence levels*

## Three ways to document process.
