Collapse the edition split — one app, Pro as a subscription

2026-07-30 design pass (with the user), superseding the 2026-07-27
two-app split and the 2026-07-29 App Group ruling. Rulings:

- One Mac App Store app (dev.rzen.indie.Kanban, free, 2.0 updates the
  existing record); Lanework Pro = auto-renewable subscription (StoreKit
  2) unlocking the git tier; libgit2 compiles in dormant. The KanbanPro
  target, module-alias tests, verify-editions, UTI/About/Types twins all
  retire. Teams stays deferred — probably a separate app, and never on a
  shared app group.
- No grandfathering: 1.x's free git users get the inert-.git posture;
  unsubscribed and lapsed are one state — histories freeze, resume on
  subscribe via the committer's catch-up commit.
- Entitlement = local read of StoreKit's signed transaction store at
  board-session composition; never a network call on the open path;
  subscribe effective at next open (purchase flow offers reopen); lapse
  never interrupts an open session; expiry-while-offline with auto-renew
  on holds in grace until a real refresh.
- App Group removed wholesale: registry, clipboard staging, template
  store, defaults return to ordinary Application Support; grant slots
  collapse to one bookmark, open-now to one flag; freshness stamp,
  pid-liveness line, group-id provisioning risk all dissolve.
- Quiet signposts carry over; Settings gains the Pro section (subscribe/
  manage/restore) as the third named Pro surface.

12-editions.md rewritten as the tiers doc; edition vocabulary swept to
tiers across 00-13, README, WISHLIST.

## Clipboard
- ⌘X/⌘C/⌘V on cards **and lanes** (resettled — lanes joined the clipboard so cross-board structure transfer has a keyboard path under the every-function contract; the cards-XOR-lanes selection rule means the clipboard holds cards or lanes, never both). Hybrid clipboard: pasteboard carries a JSON manifest + plain text; full folder snapshots staged in the shared App Group container (12-editions.md — so a copy in one edition pastes full-fidelity in the other) so paste reproduces the item byte-for-byte — cards, attachments and all — across boards. Each manifest entry embeds the full `index.md` — identification metadata (menu validation, refusal wording, the plain-text flavor's source), **never a materialization source** since the 2026-07-29 refuse-don't-degrade ruling below (a lane entry embeds its cards' too). **Staging lifecycle** (settled): snapshots are staged **eagerly at ⌘C/⌘X time** — copy captures the source as it is at the gesture, immune to later deletion or unmount — and the store holds at most the *current* copy: a new Lanework copy replaces the previous snapshot, and a sweep at launch and on each copy purges entries the pasteboard no longer references (another app taking the pasteboard orphans the snapshot; the next sweep collects it). The snapshot survives relaunch exactly as long as the pasteboard still points at it — a copy made before quitting pastes whole after restart. **A paste is an import boundary, so normalization applies** (settled 2026-07-28 — 01-storage-format.md's loose-file rule): loose files the staged snapshot carries beside a card's `index.md` land in the pasted card's `attachments/`, Finder-renamed on collision — nothing the snapshot preserved is dropped on arrival. **A paste whose staged snapshot is missing or unreadable refuses loudly — never degrades** (re-ruled 2026-07-29, retiring the degraded embedded-`index.md` fallback and its loss row; Finder's invariant adopted, and 01's leniency doctrine applied — proceed-partially-lose-a-little is never a verdict): the paste produces **nothing**, and a one-shot failure banner names it from the manifest's metadata ("The copied cards are no longer available" / "Couldn't paste 'Fix login' — the copied content is gone"; BannerCenter owns the phrasing). An item arrives **whole — index, attachments, loose files, and comments when they ship — or not at all**; a hollowed card is never materialized, so the loss-accounting problem (what didn't arrive, and whether the totals are honest) dissolves rather than being solved. The refusal is transactional — all-or-nothing for the whole paste, the copies-are-transactions posture (01). With eager staging and the shared-store sweep discipline this is a rare corner, not a flow: the refusal names it, and ⌘C again is the recovery. **The pasteboard is re-read lazily, and the brief lie is accepted** (settled): changeCount is checked on activation, on menu validation, and before paste — no timers; a background app taking the pasteboard while Lanework stays frontmost can leave Edit ▸ Paste enabled until the next check, and the paste itself re-validates and no-ops — nothing stale ever lands, which is the guarantee that matters.
- ⌘X/⌘C/⌘V on cards **and lanes** (resettled — lanes joined the clipboard so cross-board structure transfer has a keyboard path under the every-function contract; the cards-XOR-lanes selection rule means the clipboard holds cards or lanes, never both). Hybrid clipboard: pasteboard carries a JSON manifest + plain text; full folder snapshots staged app-side (02-architecture.md ▸ Per-board app state's app-wide home) so paste reproduces the item byte-for-byte — cards, attachments and all — across boards.

- **Cut is Finder-style deferred**: cut items dim in place until paste moves them; voided if another app takes the pasteboard or the source board closes; second paste materializes copies. **Deletion voids per item**: a cut item that is deleted (moved to the trash or destroyed) or vanishes externally before paste drops out of the pending cut — 02-architecture.md's UUID-set rule; transient state never resurrects what's gone — so paste moves only the survivors, and a cut voided down to nothing is simply void (paste disabled, no error).
- Paste lands after the anchor card (or appends to a selected lane); a multi-selection anchors at its last member in flatten order — the ⌘N target rule's shared anchor (The map below). Copies keep `created` (a duplicate is a fork) and take fresh GUID/`order`/`modified`. **A trash selection never anchors paste** (settled — the ⌘N target rule's own wording, returned to the precedent it cites): ⌘V stays enabled and behaves exactly as with nothing selected — a card payload appends to the last-active lane, a lane payload lands at the board's right end; the trash is never the destination (▸ The trash), and a trashed card's live disk-lane never leaks in as "the selected card's lane".
- **Lane paste** lands after the anchor lane — the selected lane, or the selected card's lane (several selected: the last, per the shared anchor rule); nothing selected = the board's right end. Semantics mirror the drag pair above exactly: a pasted *copy* takes fresh GUIDs throughout; a cut-paste is the ⌘-drag move — the folder moves whole (nothing lane-nested to strip or carry — the trash is board-level, resettled 2026-07-28). **Pasting into the source board is supported and is the within-board lane duplicate** (settled): fresh GUIDs apply as anywhere else, no menu-validation special case — the drag path deliberately lacks this operation (⌥ ignored on lane drags, above), the clipboard is its one home.
