+Rivencraft Build Instructions
+============================
+
+These instructions apply when source code, models, textures, data, or other
+resources have been changed.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+- Java 21 JDK
+- A working Gradle wrapper
+- The project dependencies available in the Gradle cache, or network access
+  for Gradle to download them
+
+The project targets Minecraft 1.21.1 and NeoForge 21.1.251.
+
+1. Open the project directory
+--------------------------------
+
+    cd /path/to/rivencraft
+
+2. Check the changed files
+--------------------------
+
+Confirm that model, texture, and other resource files are inside
+`src/main/resources`. Java source files belong under `src/main/java`.
+
+For example, block models are normally stored under:
+
+    src/main/resources/assets/rivencraft/models/block/
+
+Resource files placed under `src/main/resources` are automatically included in
+the finished mod JAR by Gradle.
+
+3. Update the version when appropriate
+---------------------------------------
+
+Rivencraft uses the version format `x.y.z.b`:
+
+- `x`: major release
+- `y`: milestone completion
+- `z`: release slice
+- `b`: bug fixes and additional work within that slice
+
+Edit `mod_version` in `gradle.properties` before creating a new release. Do
+not reuse a version that has already been published.
+
+4. Build the mod
+----------------
+
+From the project directory, run:
+
+    ./gradlew build --offline
+
+If the required dependencies are not cached locally, remove `--offline`:
+
+    ./gradlew build
+
+On systems using mise-managed Java and Gradle, use:
+
+    mise exec -- ./gradlew build --offline
+
+5. Run the automated tests
+--------------------------
+
+To build and run the GameTest suite:
+
+    ./gradlew build runGameTestServer --offline
+
+Or, with mise:
+
+    mise exec -- ./gradlew build runGameTestServer --offline
+
+All required GameTests should pass before distributing a build.
+
+6. Locate and inspect the JAR
+-----------------------------
+
+Build outputs are written to:
+
+    build/libs/
+
+The filename uses the configured version, for example:
+
+    build/libs/rivencraft-0.3.6.9.jar
+
+To verify that changed resource files are packaged:
+
+    unzip -l build/libs/rivencraft-VERSION.jar | rg 'models|textures|data'
+
+Replace `VERSION` with the actual version number.
+
+To create a checksum for distribution:
+
+    sha256sum build/libs/rivencraft-VERSION.jar
+
+7. Stop the Gradle daemon when finished
+----------------------------------------
+
+This is optional, but useful after a long test run:
+
+    ./gradlew --stop
+
+Release checklist
+-----------------
+
+- Confirm the version was incremented when required.
+- Confirm the build completed successfully.
+- Confirm all required GameTests passed.
+- Confirm changed resources are present in the JAR.
+- Generate and record the SHA-256 checksum.
+- Test the JAR in the target Minecraft 1.21.1 NeoForge instance.
+- Publish the JAR only after client-side testing is complete.
