TASK 48: distribution & packaging is deferred until we are near v1
Creator ruling 2026-10-26: the remaining programming work is far from release and a complete UX redesign is about to start, so packaging, signing, installer and updater decisions would be chasing scope that is about to move. The task is deferred, not cancelled. Recorded what is frozen: TASK 48 items 6-8, the signing decision, the updater choice (Velopack's deletion left no update path, and StorePackagingTests currently vetoes a new one), and the route question itself - ai.md says the Store route is dead (direct + Steam) while TASKS.md/task-48/HANDOFF still read Store MSIX + Store IAP. That contradiction is to be settled in ONE sweep at the revisit, not patched piecemeal now.

ready to do a complete UX redesign"* — packaging, signing, installer and updater decisions would
|

be chasing UI and scope that are about to change, so the urgency is withdrawn, not the task.

What is frozen:
|

- **TASK 48 items 6-8** (recording invariant comment, disqualifier re-check, pre-submission gates)

- **Code signing** (ship unsigned vs buy OV/EV) — current recorded posture: ship unsigned and

accept the "unrecognized publisher" warning until download reputation accrues.
|
||||
- **The updater.** Deleting Velopack (TASK 48 slice 3) left the app with **no update path at all**,
|

and `ytLive.Tests/StorePackagingTests.cs` currently *asserts that no updater exists*. That guard
