Renames AssemblyName to LlamaCasty before the first Steam depot — Steamworks is explicit that renaming a live exe is painful, so this had to land first, not later. Four assembly-qualified pack URIs carried the old name, not three: MainWindow (window icon), OverlayHost (logo), RenameRecordingDialog and KeepBroadcastDialog. Pack URIs resolve by assembly name at runtime, so a stale one compiles, passes every test and then silently renders nothing the first time that view opens. AssemblyIdentityTests guards both halves — the assembly name, and no source XAML still naming the legacy assembly. Packaging/Package.appxmanifest and package-msix.sh carry the exe name too. scripts/publish.sh replaces the by-hand publish: single-file win-x64, ReadyToRun, ffmpeg beside the exe, and it refuses to finish if ffmpeg, LICENSE, PRIVACY.md or THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt are missing, or if a test assembly leaked in. That last guard exists because the first publish was wrong in a way no test could see: PublishSingleFile + IncludeNativeLibrariesForSelfExtract bundled the libav*.dll family into the exe — a 9-file output with no ffmpeg folder and a 182 MB binary, so the locator would have found nothing at runtime. ExcludeFromSingleFile="true" on the content keeps the folder a folder. Diffing against a control publish without the single-file flags found it; guessing at item globs wasted two attempts first (recorded in MyMistakes.md). Measured: 127 MB exe + 129 MB ffmpeg = 257 MB depot. Tests: AssemblyIdentity, StorePackaging, BuildStamp, BundledFonts all pass; app builds with 0 warnings.

# HANDOFF — 2026-11-01 (the exe is LlamaCasty.exe; the depot folder builds and verifies)
|
|
|
|
## State
|
|
|
|
- Branch `main`, level with `origin` through `8f79b20`; this unit (the artifact rename) is local.
|
|
- **The shipped exe is `LlamaCasty.exe`.** `AssemblyName` renamed; four pack URIs fixed (the docs
|
|
said three — `KeepBroadcastDialog.xaml:5` was the fourth); manifest, MSIX script and
|
|
`StorePackagingTests` follow. Guarded by `ytLive.Tests/AssemblyIdentityTests.cs`.
|
|
- **`scripts/publish.sh`** stages `artifacts/steam-stage` and refuses to finish if `ffmpeg\`, the
|
|
licence, privacy or notices file is missing, or test assemblies leaked in. Output 257 MB.
|
|
- **Distribution is Steam-exclusive** (creator ruling 2026-10-31): free app + paid edition as a
|
|
Steam **DLC**; the **$10/month** plan sold off-Steam by Polar and *stated, never sold*, in-app.
|
|
`commercial.md` → Channels is policy; `Distribution.md` is depot mechanics.
|
|
- **Entitlement is `steamDlcOwned || polarKeyValid`**; `steam_api64.dll` ships beside the exe and
|
|
the app must start without Steam, falling back to free.
|
|
- **Site is live with Steam** (`a9d07ce`). `www.llamacasty.com` 301s to the apex.
|
|
|
|
## Next action
|
|
|
|
1. **OutputProfile gate** — ≤921,600 px / ≤30 fps for the stream **and** the recorder, greyed tier
|
|
entries, plus the TASK 53 geometry tests that pin every tier.
|
|
2. Then the **entitlement seam** (`IEntitlement`, Steam DLC path behind a fake, Polar path) and the
|
|
licence UI.
|
|
3. Steamworks: App ID waiting on identity verification; then depot, store page (public 2 weeks
|
|
before release) and the DLC app.
|
|
|
|
## Landmines
|
|
|
|
- **⛔ `ExcludeFromSingleFile="true"` on the ffmpeg content** — without it the publisher bundles
|
|
libav\*.dll into the exe and the app ships unable to find ffmpeg. Recipe in `MyMistakes.md`.
|
|
- **Nothing may gate a feature.** The only paid delta is the output profile; `ShowBrandFlash` stays
|
|
`false` and entitlement must never enable it.
|
|
- **No checkout inside a Steam build** — the Wallet rule. The monthly is named, never sold, in-app.
|
|
- **The org access token never ships.** `organization_id` is public; the token is not.
|
|
- **The site publishes the model, never the numbers**, and never takes payment or links a checkout.
|
|
- **No self-updater and no version banner**: Steam updates the app.
|
|
- Pre-existing: the **full test suite hangs** (WASAPI teardown) — per-class runs only; and
|
|
`ytLive.Tests` carries 3 xUnit analyzer warnings the app-only gate does not see.
|
|
- Not every hex is a theme colour — `BorderColorPalette`/chat defaults are USER DATA; on-stream
|
|
graphics come from `OutputPalette`. A red settings control is still a bug.
