+# Palanquin — Source Metadata Investigation
+
+**Model**: Claude Opus 4.6
+**Date**: 2026-03-12
+
+## Summary
+
+The canonical upstream repository for Palanquin was identified as **https://github.com/VanillaandCream/Palanquin**, maintained by the designer Pria Ravichandran under the GitHub organization VanillaandCream. This was confirmed by the DESCRIPTION.en_us.html file in the google/fonts repository, which explicitly links to this repository. The upstream repo also contains the PalanquinDark sources, confirming it is shared with the Palanquin Dark family.
+
+## Investigation
+
+The METADATA.pb file listed the designer as Pria Ravichandran with copyright dated 2014. The DESCRIPTION.en_us.html confirmed the upstream URL as `https://github.com/VanillaandCream/Palanquin`. A web search confirmed this is a designer-owned repository (not a librefonts mirror), hosted under the VanillaandCream GitHub organization belonging to Pria Ravichandran.
+
+The repository contained a `PalanquinDark/` subdirectory alongside the `Palanquin/` directory, confirming both font families originate from the same upstream repository.

+# Palanquin Dark — Source Metadata Investigation
+
+**Model**: Claude Opus 4.6
+**Date**: 2026-03-12
+
+## Summary
+
+The canonical upstream repository for Palanquin Dark was identified as **https://github.com/VanillaandCream/Palanquin**, the same repository as the Palanquin family. This was confirmed by inspecting the repository structure, which contains a `PalanquinDark/` subdirectory alongside the `Palanquin/` directory. Both families are maintained by designer Pria Ravichandran under the VanillaandCream GitHub organization.
+
+## Investigation
+
+The METADATA.pb file listed the designer as Pria Ravichandran with copyright dated 2014. The Palanquin Dark description confirmed it is the "heavier display family" extending the Palanquin superfamily. A search of the VanillaandCream GitHub organization revealed only three repositories: Bandipur, Catamaran-Tamil, and Palanquin — confirming no separate PalanquinDark repository exists, and that all Palanquin Dark sources are contained within the main Palanquin repository.
