The joining page, DEPLOY and the laptop sync default moved to development in the
commit before this one. This finishes the move and closes what a fresh clone's
friend test found.
- landing-preconditions diffs against origin/development when no landing branch
is exported, instead of main.
- CLOUD-DEVELOPMENT-ENVIRONMENT, the plugin-designer skill (SKILL.md, workflow,
glossary) and the shared dev server's notes land on and follow development;
the skill says never to push to main.
- The sync fetches with the laptop's own credentials. git runs with prompts off,
so on a clone with no credential helper it failed every interval with a bare
"fetch-failed / remote: Unauthorized", which read as a broken server. That case
is now its own state, needs-credentials: the log (once, not every tick) and
/api/dev-sync say "dev-sync needs git credentials for <remote>". The joining
page and .env.example say so, and that a fresh clone starts on main and must
switch to development before the sync can fast-forward it.
Measured in scratch repos: the private remote with no helper gives
needs-credentials and one warning over two ticks; a local remote with no
DX_SYNC_BRANCH follows development and fast-forwards; a missing remote stays
fetch-failed.
