-**Why `edge`:** `release.yml` publishes an installer binary on every push to
-`main`, so nothing lands there until the whole tool is worth handing to an
-operator. The `edge → main` cutover cuts the first release. PRs into `edge` run
-the same gates as PRs into `main`.
-
-**What the cutover is waiting on**, per PLAN.md §5:
-
-1. **Phase 5**, packaging polish — deliberately *before* the first release rather
-   than after it, because it changes the release layout, and shipping first would
-   mean a first release immediately superseded by the next. There is no `.deb`
-   and no MSI: both would give the sidecar binary, its service unit and its
-   service account a second owner beside this tool.
-2. **The Windows SCM half verified on a real host.** `sc create`, the virtual
-   service account, the failure actions and the token-file ACL have never been
-   executed anywhere. Running the *systemd* half for real is what turned up a bug
-   no unit test had, so this is not a formality.
-
-Until the cutover, the way to install is by hand —

+**`main` publishes.** `release.yml` cuts a release from every push to `main`, which
+is why the crate was integrated on `edge` until it was worth handing to an
+operator. Both cutover gates were met first: Phase 5 (its scope settled as **no
+`.deb` and no MSI** — either would give the sidecar binary, its service unit and
+its service account a second owner beside this tool), and the **Windows SCM half
+verified on a real host**. That second one earned its place: `sc start` failed
+with 1053 on its first real run and needed a sidecar fix (link#29) before it
+passed 13/13.
