The data were coadded with custom software and analyzed in STDWeb/STDPipe (Karpov 2024), with photometric calibration against Pan-STARRS DR1. Our photometry is in the AB system and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.\n\nWithin the SVOM/ECLAIRs error box, we detect a bright uncatalogued source at RA = 197.44679 and Dec = 9.49533 (J2000) with a magnitude of\n\ni = 17.91 +/- 0.03\n\nFurther observations are planned.\n\nWe warmly thank the COLIBRÍ and DDRAGO engineering teams and the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir.\n",
