gramps 87509bcf99 docs: restructure TASKS.md into a catalog — one file per task in TASKS/

TASKS.md is now the index (status table, open items, research pointer).
33 files: 32 task files + 1 research facts file. The full take-saga
narrative and all design decisions are preserved verbatim; the catalog
makes the queue readable without opening every task body. Schema and
AGENTS.md updated to reflect the new layout.

TASK 10 — Monetization: watermark-only subscription + Polar billing

Catalog: TASKS.md — status and requirements live here.

Goal: annual subscription via Polar.sh that removes the branding watermark. All features are free — the only difference between free and paid is the watermark.

Related work — monetization awareness (2026-09-01, ungated, free): this task's billing is the payer side; the product also carries built-in, ungated monetization awareness for every creator — reward-event capture (all 7 liveChatMessage reward event types → canonical RewardEvent → SQLite persistence), per-session/broadcast reports (members, Super Chat $, stickers, gifts, milestones — the in-app replacement for the emailed "stream activity report"), and a journey tracker (position % + ETA vs. versioned, date-aware YPP thresholds; the Tier-2 bar doubles for new applicants 2027-02-01). Details and design notes: ai.md → Monetization. This is tracked as related work under this task's narrative, not a separate task number — it ships in its own code slices with one integration test each. Scope: v1 (2026-09-01 complete-v1 ruling — there is no v1.x): slice order = reward-event capture → session report → journey tracker → Alerts (TASK 3 item 20).

Business details (pricing, Polar product/checkout/discounts) in MONETIZATION.md (gitignored).
