+# Meta VR Start Developer Competition 2026 — StreamLink XR Readiness
+
+## Eligibility checklist
+
+The official rules require the entrant (or every team member, where applicable) to:
+- Be at least 18 and the age of majority in their jurisdiction.
+- Have an active Meta account with Developer Access enabled by submission.
+- Have the submitting representative be a member in good standing of Meta VR Start by submission.
+- Reside in an eligible location and satisfy the banking / sanctions restrictions in the official rules.
+- Submit only one entry as an individual or team representative.
+
+Kenya is not named among the excluded locations in the competition rules. Entrant eligibility still depends on the individual requirements above.
+
+Before submission, the entrant must personally confirm: age requirement, Developer Access status, Start membership in good standing, Devpost registration, and correct individual/team representative status.
+
+## Recommended project positioning
+
+- Project: StreamLink XR — a hands-first spatial creator studio for controlling and monitoring live broadcasts, with an original in-world VR Arena.
+- Track recommendation: Productivity. The primary product is a creator workspace; Arena is an interactive onboarding / engagement mode. The sponsor can reassign track placement.
+- Division recommendation: The repository's earliest visible commit is September 28, 2026, which is inside the September 24–November 18 competition window. If no earlier codebase, prototype, early-access build, or published app existed elsewhere before September 24, choose New Experience. If StreamLink or its underlying code existed before September 24, choose Adapted / Significantly Updated Experience; the IWSDK Quest port, hands-first spatial controls, and Arena are substantial competition-window updates. The sponsor makes the final division determination.
+- Originality: The core spatial workspace and Arena remain useful without third-party streaming destinations or the AI agent. Those services extend the project; they are not the entire project.
+
+## Submission requirements
+
+- A working IWSDK/WebXR URL that judges can open and test; this project is hosted on the existing StreamLink domain.
+- A public demonstration video under 3 minutes, showing actual Quest / XR Simulator / equivalent emulator footage.
+- Devpost project name, 140-character tagline, track, division, inspiration, implementation approach, future plans, and target launch date.
+- For an adapted project, a clear summary of the new competition-window features, with screenshots / changelog / video recommended.
+- Describe hands-first interactions and what is exciting about future VR (optional field).
+- Keep the project free and accessible through the winner announcement (December 11, 2026).
+- Submission deadline: November 18, 2026 at 12:00 PM Pacific (11:00 PM East Africa Time).
+
+## Technical acceptance checklist
+
+### Automated checks
+- [ ] TypeScript typecheck passes.
+- [ ] IWSDK production build passes.
+- [ ] Docker image builds with the nested Quest build step.
+- [ ] Express serves /quest/ and redirects /app to /quest/.
+- [ ] Existing /config.js, Supabase auth, platform credentials, stream APIs, FFmpeg and Socket.IO remain functional.
+
+### XR / gameplay checks
+- [ ] Run the IWSDK development server with `cd streamlink-server/quest-competition && npm install && npm run dev`; use the injected IWER Quest 3 emulator to enter XR and test hands / pointers on desktop.
+- [ ] Quest Browser opens the app over HTTPS and enters immersive VR.
+- [ ] Hands are available without pairing controllers.
+- [ ] Pinch and poke operate every in-world control.
+- [ ] Control panel can be grabbed and repositioned.
+- [ ] Arena starts, spawns five targets, scores +10 per hit, counts down from 45 seconds, stops cleanly, and can restart.
+- [ ] Seated use works within a comfortable reach / narrow field of view.
+- [ ] Focus, Comfort and Reset controls work.
+- [ ] Start / Stop, quality, destination entry and telemetry are tested end-to-end.
+- [ ] Pause / resume and session exit do not leave camera, microphone, stream or timer resources running.
+- [ ] Measure frame rate on Quest; target at least 60 FPS.
+- [ ] Confirm free, reliable judge access without requiring a developer login or private invitation.
+
+Important: A successful desktop CI build does not prove headset hand tracking, comfort, frame rate, or end-to-end streaming. Those require XR emulator and/or physical Quest validation.
