+| `--force` | Overwrite existing files in the target directory |
+| `--skip-install` | Skip `npm install` after copying the template |

+## Before LMS packaging
+
+1. **LMS bridge** — In `src/courseConfig.ts`, enable the bridge for SCORM/xAPI/cmi5 export (template defaults to `"off"` for local preview):
+
+   ```ts
+   lxpack: {
+     bridge: "auto",
+     allowedParentOrigins: ["https://your-lms.example"], // required in production builds
+   },
+   ```
+
+   Development builds allow `bridge: "auto"` without an allowlist; **production builds do not**. Discover your LMS origin from the SCORM preview URL or browser devtools (`document.referrer`).
+
+2. **Production runtime** — Copy `.env.example` to `.env`, set `VITE_ANALYTICS_URL` and `VITE_XAPI_PROXY_URL`, and wire the observability hooks in `courseConfig.ts` (see comments there). Rebuild with `npm run build` before packaging. Alternatively, disable `tracking` and `xapi` for a first test export only.
+
+3. **Activity IRI** — Replace the `example.com` placeholder in `lessonkit.json` → `course.tracking.xapi.activityIri` before xAPI/cmi5 export (must be HTTPS).
+
+## SCORM output path
+
+After `npm run package:scorm12`, the CLI prints the resolved ZIP path. Default:
+
+**`.lxpack/course/.lxpack/out/course-scorm12.zip`**
+
+(`paths.outputBaseDir` is resolved inside `paths.lxpackOutDir`, not at the project root.)
+
 ## Production
