wtclaude ddcfb5de29 docs(installer): bundles publish to a branch, releases only tag
Two corrections to §7.1, both forced by the first compose run that ever
had a bundle to write (org lead, 2026-08-05).

The section said bundles are committed to `main` and that this "needs no
new branch-protection exception: release.yml's version-bump commit
already requires the CI user to be able to push to main". Both halves
were wrong. `main` is protected and declines the push, and release.yml
had never pushed anything: its bump step has never executed in any repo
carrying it, because an empty template expression written literally in
one of its comments makes the runner fail to build the step and skip it
without failing the job. The tags exist because Gitea's release API
creates one when it publishes. The assumption that a working push path
already existed had never been tested by anything.

Bundles now publish to a `bundles` branch at its root, which keeps every
property the original choice was for -- reviewable diff, git history of
the compat matrix, plain anonymous raw URLs, no credentials on the shard
host -- and needs no exception. The release workflows are tag-only for
the same reason, as servuo-plugins has always been: the version is still
written into Cargo.toml before building so a released binary
self-reports correctly, but is not committed back.

Also updated: the raw URLs in INSTALL.md Appendix A1 and in Phase 0.3's
as-built note.

Runic Gateway — Documentation

Central documentation for the Runic Gateway platform. The docs here were extracted from the two code repositories (with full commit history preserved) so they live in one place, independent of either codebase.

Layout

website/    docs from the shard website (Node/Express + MariaDB + React/Vite)
link/       docs from the ServUO bridge (C# plugin + Rust sidecar + Node WS)
android/    docs from the native Android client (Kotlin + Jetpack Compose)
installer/  docs for the installer that deploys a shard's bridge components
ci/         cross-cutting CI/quality notes
