+## Source Repository
+
+The original design sources for Limelight are preserved in the **googlefontdirectory-hg** Mercurial monorepo at commit `52f780bc9d197280a9f430574e179a5f233c56b6`, under the path `limelight/src/`.
+
+### Source Files in googlefontdirectory-hg
+
+- `Limelight-Regular.vfb` -- FontLab binary source (proprietary, not buildable with gftools-builder)
+- `Limelight-Regular-OTF.sfd` -- FontForge SFD file (legacy, not buildable with gftools-builder)
+- `Limelight-Regular-TTF.sfd` -- FontForge SFD file (legacy, not buildable with gftools-builder)
+- `Limelight-Regular.otf` -- compiled OTF binary, not a design source
+- `METADATA_comments.txt` -- metadata file, not a design source
+
+The design sources are in VFB and SFD legacy formats only. No `.glyphs`, `.ufo`, or `.designspace` files are present. These formats are not compatible with gftools-builder.

 ## Summary
 
-Limelight is a display typeface designed by Nicole Fally with spacing and mastering by Eben Sorkin (Sorkin Type). It was added to Google Fonts on 2011-05-25 and has not been updated since the initial google/fonts repository commit on 2015-03-07. The upstream repository is `librefonts/limelight`, which contains only legacy source files (SFD/VFB formats) -- not compatible with gftools-builder. No config.yaml exists or can be created for this font.

-## config.yaml Assessment
+## Build Configuration
 
 An override config.yaml **cannot** be created because:
 - The upstream sources are in SFD (FontForge) and VFB (FontLab) formats only.
 - These formats are not supported by gftools-builder, which requires `.glyphs`, `.ufo`, or `.designspace` sources.
 - No modern source files exist in any known repository.
 
-## Recommendation
-
-A source block can be added to METADATA.pb pointing to `librefonts/limelight` at commit `f361773`, but without a `config_yaml` field since no gftools-builder compatible sources exist. The source block would document the upstream repository for reference purposes.
