What changed
Hoshi Library’s 18 February notice and the organiser’s results page identify the general excellence prize, awarded as a book card. Partial AI use is the author’s account; the claim of a first is restricted to this award’s own description.
Awarded story unread. Official author comment reports101/100 versus March account100/99; both retained. Judge Oki labels a passage AI-written, while the method account identifies it as human input; reception is not an authorship audit. Retrospective publication is not rule adoption; awarded text/individual enforcement unchecked.
Editorial research question

This is an editorial interpretation or question, separate from factual statements.
