QuotaProvider grows a read half: CheckRead(org, bytes) and RecordEgress(org, bytes). CheckRead is enforced on /s/* only — a public share link is the sole unauthenticated door to stored bytes, so it is the only egress a plan can cap. The sync proxy and viewer merely RecordEgress: refusing a device mid-cycle surfaces as ErrForbidden, which the syncer reads as "access is gone — pause and touch nothing", and sync must never break over a bill. UnlimitedQuota stays the OSS default. countingWriter bills what actually reached the client rather than a size claimed before the write.
bdrive init warns past 1 GiB or 20k files and says how to narrow scope; syncer.Measure sizes that through the real Filter and the one walkFolder predicate. starterIgnore gains video/archive/disk-image globs and Library/ — every version is kept forever, so a big binary committed once is paid for forever on every device.
deploy: a Nearline-at-30-days lifecycle rule and the arithmetic for why it stops there. Coldline and Archive only pay off below roughly one read per month, and a first sync pulls every historical blob rather than just the current tree, so blob read rate tracks device onboarding.
docs/launch-plan.md said Cloud was waitlist-only and framed Product Hunt as an OSS launch whose goal was not signups or revenue; both are stale.

The landing page sells BearDrive Cloud, so it now lives in the private
cloud module (web/landing, served by the hub at / for signed-out visitors)
instead of this repo. A self-hosted hub should never serve "Start free"
CTAs pointing at our managed service, and marketing for the paid product
doesn't belong in the AGPL tree.
Rebuilt there as an Astro site on the webapp's own design tokens, so the
landing and the app stop drifting apart visually.
Doc pointers updated to the new location.

Reviewer round 3 (9/7/9/8/7/9) caught the sharpest truth bug yet: the
README quickstart's bare 'bdrive login' defaults to beardrive.ai, which
is waitlist-only and not accepting logins — a launch-day visitor's
first command would fail silently. Fixes:
- quickstart step 1 now routes to self-hosting ('bdrive login
https://your-hub', ~10-minute guide linked) with Cloud honestly
framed as waitlist; website closer promises 'Self-host in one
binary' instead of 'under a minute, done'
- handoff gains a P0 gate: verify the FULL first run (login → init →
edit → log) against a working hub before any launch; bare 'bdrive
login' must not be advertised until Cloud accepts logins
- handoff: seed 3-5 good-first-issues (CONTRIBUTING promises them);
replace the mailto waitlist with a real form before Product Hunt
- README trimmed 583→524 lines: the Authentication and Choosing-a-
database operator reference moved verbatim into docs/self-hosting.md
with a compact pointer left behind

Reviewer round 2 scored 8/7/9/8/8/8 with one repo-fixable major left:
three deeper website spots (storage strip, architecture card, bring-
your-own-storage card) still implied a hub-less direct-to-bucket mode
that v0.3.0 removed — all rewritten to the hub-on-your-storage reality;
themes-preview.html's five retracted 'no server required' strings fixed.
Also: install-path verification added to the handoff P0 and the launch
prep checklist (a 404 brew tap on launch day is fatal); README
credentials table now says the s3/gs/file rows are hub-operator storage,
never client remotes; the agent promise now leads on both README and
website (people-sharing supports it); share.png re-captured against a
real rendered runbook (headings/table/code) instead of a one-line stub.

GTM reviewer round 1 (baseline: positioning 6, funnel 4, open-paid 8,
community 3, launch 3, metrics 2; 3 blockers + 3 majors, all repo-fixable):
- TRUTH: removed the false 'no server required' claim (x3 on the
website) and stale 'S3/GCS directly' sync claims in both plugin
manifests — hub-only since v0.3.0
- POSITIONING: one line everywhere ('the open-source Google Drive for
AI agents' + the attribution/read-analytics wedge) across README,
website, marketplace.json, plugin.json, SKILL.md; third 'Why' card
and AGPL-why rationale; nav CTA → Star on GitHub
- COMMUNITY: CONTRIBUTING.md, issue forms + PR template, public dated
ROADMAP.md, CHANGELOG.md seeded from all 8 releases
- DEMO ASSETS: real product screenshots captured from the seeded demo
hub (Insights treemap, browse-with-heat, public share page) embedded
in README + website — no fabricated content anywhere
- DOCS: self-hosting quickstart, metrics plan (north star: active
shared brains), launch-plan drafts (Show HN/PH/launch week), and
docs/gtm-handoff.md — the prioritized external-action checklist
