interpreting-mod-author-instructions

Use when deciding how to correctly download/install a Bethesda mod per the author's instructions — triggers "how do I install", "FOMOD choices", "which file to download", "author说明", "install instructions", "which variant", "按作者说明安装", "这个mod怎么装". NOT for deciding whether to include the mod (use evaluating-bgs-mods), load order editing (writing-bgs-load-order), record conflicts (xedit-conflict-audit), archive operations (using-bgs-archive), Papyrus work (using-bgs-papyrus), or translation/export tasks (using-bgs-translator).

# Interpreting Mod Author Instructions (judgment skill)

This skill answers one question only: **How do I correctly download/install per the mod author's instructions?** It starts after `evaluating-bgs-mods` has said INCLUDE or CONDITIONAL INCLUDE. The job is not to decide whether the mod is good; the job is to read the author's说明 until the install path, file choice, prerequisite order, option logic, and consequences are actually understood.

## The Iron Law

```text
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| No author说明, no install plan: understand the author's requirements, variants, and consequences |
| before touching downloads, FOMOD options, files, profiles, or load-order state.                 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
```
