Verdict for IU_0063: ACCEPT. The review is written to artifacts/review.json, valid JSON, left untracked.

Facts verified

• Downloaded file's sha256 matches the required hash exactly.
• PNG is 512×512 RGB and decodes to a strict 32×32 grid at 16× nearest-neighbour. Every 16×16 block is uniform, so no anti-aliasing, gradients or blur.
• Five colours total, all from the allowed set: background #0c1610, cobalt #6f7fe0, navy #2b3a6b, black, bone #f2efe6. No stray colours, no green specks.
• One character, front-facing bust, centred, shoulders run off the bottom edge. No text, logo, signature or frame.

Trait check (inferred from viewing plus the pixel map)

• Species GHOST: rounded cobalt dome with a flared, wavy lower hem. Reads as a sheet ghost.
• Skin cobalt: exact palette hex.
• Eyes SLEEPY: black lid bar over a bone slit with a low pupil, clearly heavy-lidded.
• Headgear NONE: confirmed.
• Outfit SUIT: navy jacket with lapels, bone shirt collar, black tie.

Why style and originality are docked

• The outline is only 1 px and is incomplete. Cobalt, bone and navy touch the background directly on several head rows, the collar gap, and the left jacket edge. This weakens rule 3 but is not one of the listed hard-reject conditions.
• The design is clean but minimal and close to a stock ghost-in-suit template.

Uncertainty

• The hem could also be read as a blob or jellyfish shape. I judged it as ghost because of the wavy scalloped edge, which is the conventional cue.

I did not add a README since the task text says to write only the JSON. Nothing was committed.
