-## Summary
+## Source Repository
-No canonical upstream repository with UFO or Glyphs sources was found for the Salsa font family. The font was designed by John Vargas Beltrán. Searches of GitHub did not locate a public source repository.
+The `googlefontdirectory-hg` monorepo (the historical Google Font Directory Mercurial archive) contains files for this family.
+
+- **Repository**: `googlefontdirectory-hg`
+- **Commit**: `52f780bc9d197280a9f430574e179a5f233c56b6`
+- **Source path**: `salsa/src/`
+
+## Source Files
+
+The `salsa/src/` directory contains design sources in VFB (FontLab) and SFD (FontForge) formats, neither of which can be built with gftools-builder:
+
+- **VFB** (FontLab, proprietary format, not buildable with gftools): Salsa-Regular.vfb
+- **SFD** (FontForge, not buildable with gftools-builder): Salsa-Regular-TTF.sfd
+- **OTF** (compiled binaries, not design sources): Salsa-Regular.otf
+
+## Buildability
+
+Not buildable with gftools-builder. The sources are in VFB (FontLab proprietary) and SFD (FontForge) formats. Neither format is supported by gftools-builder. Conversion to UFO or Glyphs format would be required.
