Update §8.7 + the banner + §1 TODOs to reflect that Phases 2–5 shipped today
(apply/revert pipeline, severity-split auto-apply, the WebUI Improvements stream
+ per-app chip, and make_hotfix.sh). Only the registry/marketplace stays
deferred (demand-gated by design).

The four-lens design panel finished (marketplace-first ranked top) and
confirmed the format; graft in the strongest refinements it surfaced so
the spec is genuinely "done":
- Publishers MAP trust anchor: `publisher` is now a key into an index-root
`publishers` map ({display, role, key}) the team-signed index vouches
for, not an inline {name,trust}. An artifact's claimed trust is honored
only if the publisher's role permits AND its sig verifies against that
key — so a community key can never self-certify as official. This is the
load-bearing trust mechanism for the marketplace seam.
- Two-tier reversibility: a per-op `undo` array (precise revert) plus the
snapshot (dirty-op fallback).
- All-or-nothing dry-precheck-all before any snapshot; unknown op rejects
the whole artifact at validation.
- Canonical-bytes signing rule (sign the exact artifact bytes, never
re-serialize on the box) + warrant-canary countersigning index_serial.
- Op vocabulary grown to the full set (set-data-file as the bridge to
bundles; set/unset-compose-env; ensure-compose-up/restart-service).
- Envelope gains version/supersedes/reversible + richer applies_when
(image_match/requires/conflicts).
- CFG_HOTFIX_AUTO + staged rollout / randomized delay / recall-via-supersedes.
- Flag the VERIFIED existing bug: updaterRecordHistory silently skips the
audit entry when jq is absent (cli_updater_commands.sh:154-168) — Phase 2
must make it fail-closed; "nothing silent" depends on it.
- Phases re-sequenced (P2 heart, P3 auto-apply, P4 WebUI, P5 make_hotfix.sh,
deferred registry).
Spec-only change — no code; the Phase 1 read primitive is unaffected (it's
a generic verified fetch; publisher/envelope internals are Phase 2).

Build the read side of the unified distribution primitive from
docs/roadmap/updates-and-distribution.md: one team-signed catalog
(index.json) on the same channel as latest.json, listing type-tagged
artifact envelopes. A hotfix is the first artifact type; apps/themes/
components are future envelope rows through the SAME pipe — the
marketplace seam is just the `type` + `payload.kind` fields.
Phase 1 is fetch + verify + parse only (NO mutation; the snapshot →
ops → rollback → History apply verb is Phase 2):
- Factor `lpVerifyMinisig` out of `lpFetchRelease` (scripts/source/
fetch.sh) — one trust anchor (the root-owned footprint key) now
shared by releases and the index; refactor `lpFetchRelease` to use
it (behaviour-preserving, still fail-closed).
- scripts/source/artifacts.sh: `lpFetchIndex` — download →
verify-before-parse → `valid_until` freshness (anti-withholding) →
`index_serial` monotonic high-water (anti-rollback, TUF-lite) → emit
verified JSON. Trust core is jq-free; parsing accessors prefer jq
with a grep fallback.
- `libreportal artifact index` (scripts/cli/commands/artifact/) —
read-only front door that fetches, verifies and lists. Runs directly
like `updater check` (no task; no mutation).
- Regenerate the source arrays + lazy-load function manifest for the
new files.
Doc: promote the format from vision to spec (§8) — 3 layers
(INDEX/ENVELOPE/PIPELINE), the bounded declarative op vocabulary (no
run-script, ever), the apply pipeline mapped onto existing functions,
the marketplace seam, and resolutions for all five open forks.
Self-tested 12/12: trust core fails closed (real key + no minisign →
refuse), happy path, stale-refused, rollback-refused, signature-refused,
jq + grep parsing.

Sort docs/ into guide/ contributing/ architecture/ roadmap/ and rename
to consistent kebab-case (USER->guide/install-and-use, FOOTPRINT->
architecture/system-footprint, frontend-modularization->architecture/
webui-architecture, etc.). Add a docs/README.md index and a docs/
CONTRIBUTING.md pointer so the forge still surfaces the contributing
guide. Fix every reference (README, init.sh comments, frontend code
comments, and the USER<->DEVELOPMENT cross-links). History preserved
via git mv. Root stays README.md + CLAUDE.md.
