* Wisteria + drunk/stoned animals prompt library — drinking animals hanging
- * from cascading wisteria racemes with bamboo-leaf canopy. All animals MUST

- * neon) rather than the pop-art drunk-animals palette.

- * IMPORTANT — legal note: drunk-animals had a standing FLOWERS-ONLY rule
- * ("NO leaves, NO foliage, NO bamboo") to dodge Hinson/Cole banana-leaf
- * trademark waters. This brief intentionally overrides that with BAMBOO
- * LEAVES + WISTERIA at Steve's direction. Bamboo-leaf prints are non-
- * trademarkable as a motif so the risk is low, but anything resembling
- * an existing commercial pattern (Schumacher Chiang Mai, Hinson
- * Beverly Hills Banana, Brunschwig Le Singe) needs designer eyes
- * before publish. Generator outputs go in as is_published=false until
- * a human approves.
+ * NO BAMBOO. The brief originally included a bamboo-leaf canopy but Steve
+ * stripped it — sticks with the standing FLOWERS-ONLY rule for drunk-animals
+ * and dodges Hinson/Schumacher leaf-motif trademark waters entirely.
+ * Wisteria-only botanical anchor; no leaves, no canopy, no foliage.
