+ # Desktop Commercial Distribution Review
28
+
29
+ <!-- mustflow-section: purpose -->
30
+ ## Purpose
31
+
32
+ Choose direct, store, or hybrid desktop distribution from platform fit, customer trust, commerce,
33
+ licensing, update ownership, support cost, and incremental contribution. Keep one product contract
34
+ while channel adapters satisfy different packaging and policy boundaries.
35
+
36
+ <!-- mustflow-section: use-when -->
37
+ ## Use When
38
+
39
+ - A Windows or macOS desktop app compares website download, Microsoft Store, Mac App Store, another
40
+ approved storefront, managed enterprise distribution, or a hybrid channel strategy.
41
+ - The app compares store commerce with external checkout, subscription, perpetual license, paid
42
+ upgrade, coupon, bundle, team license, or customer account entitlements.
43
+ - Store fees, payment processing, tax handling, refunds, chargebacks, discovery, trust, code signing,
44
+ notarization, malware reputation, sandboxing, review delay, updates, analytics, or support change.
45
+ - Direct and store builds differ in capabilities, installers, licensing, account login, trial,
46
+ restore, update mechanism, plugins, automation, background services, or enterprise deployment.
47
+ - A report claims one channel produces better conversion, lower fees, easier updates, more trust, or
48
+ higher retained contribution.
49
+
50
+ <!-- mustflow-section: do-not-use-when -->
51
+ ## Do Not Use When
52
+
53
+ - The task only changes updater feeds, signatures, immutable artifacts, staged rollout, old-version
54
+ upgrades, relaunch, or update telemetry; use `desktop-auto-update-safety-review`.
55
+ - The task only changes packaging, signing, notarization, release assets, publication, or installed
56
+ smoke tests with a distribution channel already chosen; use the matching release, packaging, and
57
+ platform skills.
58
+ - The task only changes checkout, payment webhooks, tax, refund, dispute, or entitlement correctness
59
+ independent of desktop channel choice; use `payment-integrity-review`.
60
+ - The task only changes generic subscription, trial, price, regional pricing, or bundle economics;
61
+ use `pricing-model-integrity-review` or `product-portfolio-integrity-review`.
62
+ - The task requests current platform-law interpretation or contract advice. Use official current
63
+ platform terms and qualified authority; this skill supplies the comparison packet.
64
+
65
+ <!-- mustflow-section: required-inputs -->
66
+ ## Required Inputs
67
+
68
+ - Product ledger: audience, buyer, price and cadence, core job, platform targets, capability and
69
+ privilege needs, plugins or extensions, background services, local files, enterprise needs,
70
+ offline use, support model, and expected update cadence.
71
+ - Channel ledger: platform, storefront or website, app type, packaging, sandbox, capability,
72
+ signing, notarization, review, listing, regions, discovery, install trust, trial, commerce,
73
+ entitlement, restore, update, rollback, analytics, ratings, support, and policy version.
74
+ - Economics ledger: gross price, store share, payment processing, fixed transaction fee, tax and
75
+ merchant-of-record cost, refund, chargeback, fraud, signing, hosting, bandwidth, review delay,
76
+ update operation, support, acquisition, retained revenue, and contribution.
77
+ - Identity and license ledger: product account, store account, transaction identity, receipt,
78
+ license, device or seat, organization, entitlement source, restore, refund, revocation, migration,
79
+ offline lease, and customer support lookup.
80
+ - Build ledger: common core, channel adapter, feature flags, packaging, commerce adapter, license
81
+ adapter, update adapter, policy differences, artifact identity, version, tests, and drift owner.
82
+ - Experiment ledger: eligible buyer, acquisition source, channel availability, exposure, self-
83
+ selection, price and package parity, platform and region, install, purchase, activation, refund,
84
+ retained use, support, and promotion rule.
85
+
86
+ <!-- mustflow-section: preconditions -->
87
+ ## Preconditions
88
+
89
+ - Separate listing and discovery, binary distribution, checkout, entitlement, update, and support.
90
+ One channel need not own every layer.
91
+ - Identify app type and current platform policy before assuming fees, external commerce, sandbox,
92
+ signing, entitlement, or update rules.
93
+ - Define one product identity and accepted entitlement before adding channel-specific adapters.
94
+ - Treat copied fee percentages, registration costs, conversion lifts, review times, platform defaults,
95
+ and break-even thresholds as dated inputs, not built-in policy.
96
+ - This skill does not authorize developer enrollment, contract acceptance, store submission,
97
+ signing-key access, notarization, publication, price changes, live checkout, migration, or release.
98
+
99
+ <!-- mustflow-section: allowed-edits -->
100
+ ## Allowed Edits
101
+
102
+ - Add or refine channel policy, capability and sandbox matrix, direct and store packaging boundaries,
103
+ commerce and license adapters, purchase restoration, entitlement portability, update ownership,
104
+ channel economics, experiments, fixtures, tests, docs, route metadata, and synchronized templates.
105
+ - Add explicit handoffs to platform, packaging, signing, notarization, updater, payment, tax,
106
+ accounting, licensing, security, privacy, enterprise distribution, or legal owners.
107
+ - Replace a forked product, gross-fee comparison, store-discovery assumption, download-as-conversion,
108
+ or channel-specific customer orphaning with shared contracts and full-funnel evidence.
109
+ - Do not bypass store rules, weaken signing or sandbox security, hide channel limitations, duplicate
110
+ purchases silently, or promise license portability that current receipts and contracts cannot
111
+ provide.
112
+
113
+ <!-- mustflow-section: procedure -->
114
+ ## Procedure
115
+
116
+ 1. Split six decisions: discovery, binary delivery, checkout, entitlement, updates, and support.
117
+ Compare direct, store, and hybrid combinations rather than forcing one channel to own all six.
118
+ 2. Classify the app before comparing channels. Include consumer versus professional buyer, price,
119
+ subscription or perpetual rights, system access, automation, plugins, background services,
120
+ enterprise deployment, offline use, and support burden.
121
+ 3. Refresh official platform policy by date, app type, commerce type, region, and program. A current
122
+ non-game exception, external-link entitlement, fee, enrollment rule, or sandbox requirement does
123
+ not automatically apply to games, another region, or a future release.
124
+ 4. Build a capability matrix. Mark which features work unchanged, need an entitlement or review,
125
+ require a channel adapter, degrade under sandboxing, or make the channel infeasible. Do not ship a
126
+ trusted but materially crippled store build without clear disclosure.
127
+ 5. Compare installation trust honestly. Include code signing, notarization, reputation warnings,
128
+ malware scanning, hosted delivery, review, publisher identity, account trust, and enterprise
129
+ policy; a store badge and a signed direct binary provide different evidence.
130
+ 6. Compare discovery as incremental acquisition, not storefront presence. Track listing views,
131
+ qualified installs, first owned value, purchase, retained use, and customers who would have found
132
+ the website anyway.
133
+ 7. Calculate net channel contribution. Include store share, processor and fixed fees, tax or merchant
134
+ services, refunds, chargebacks, fraud, signing, hosting, bandwidth, review delay, update operation,
135
+ support, acquisition, and variable product cost.
136
+ 8. Derive the break-even lift for each actual price and package. A low fixed-price app, high-price
137
+ professional app, subscription, and team license can produce different winners; do not embed one
138
+ fee comparison as a platform law.
139
+ 9. Evaluate Windows store, direct, and hybrid paths under current Microsoft policy and actual app
140
+ type. Store distribution with external commerce can be a candidate where allowed; direct delivery
141
+ may remain necessary for enterprise, offline, portable, privileged, plugin, or unsupported cases.
142
+ 10. Evaluate Mac App Store, notarized direct, and hybrid paths under current Apple policy and actual
143
+ capability needs. Price store trust against sandbox, commerce, review, licensing, update, and
144
+ feature constraints rather than assuming either platform has one universal answer.
145
+ 11. Keep one application core. Isolate store APIs, direct checkout, licensing, updater, packaging,
146
+ and policy differences behind narrow channel adapters and shared feature contracts.
147
+ 12. Prevent capability drift. Version the channel matrix and compare user-visible features,
148
+ accessibility, privacy, data formats, account behavior, performance, and support across builds.
149
+ Differences must be intentional and disclosed.
150
+ 13. Define one entitlement model with channel provenance. Preserve store receipt, direct transaction,
151
+ refund, revocation, subscription status, device or seat, organization, offline lease, and policy
152
+ version without treating a store login as the product's only customer identity.
153
+ 14. Make restoration and duplicate ownership explicit. Cover reinstall, new device, account merge,
154
+ direct-to-store and store-to-direct migration, double purchase, family or organization access,
155
+ refund, chargeback, cancellation, and support lookup.
156
+ 15. Do not promise cross-channel portability automatically. Decide whether rights can be recognized,
157
+ exchanged, discounted, grandfathered, or remain channel-bound according to contracts, fraud risk,
158
+ tax, and platform policy.
159
+ 16. Assign update ownership per channel. Store updates, direct updater, enterprise deployment, and
160
+ manual offline updates need compatible versioning, migration, rollback-forward, support, and
161
+ release notes; route implementation through `desktop-auto-update-safety-review`.
162
+ 17. Account for review and release latency. Cover urgent security fixes, phased rollout, rejection,
163
+ metadata changes, rollback, customer communication, and channel version skew.
164
+ 18. Keep trials and checkout promises channel-aware. State whether trial duration, renewal, refund,
165
+ coupon, perpetual license, paid upgrade, bundle, and team purchase are available and equivalent;
166
+ do not hide a weaker channel after acquisition.
167
+ 19. Measure self-selection. Direct and store customers can differ in trust, technical ability,
168
+ geography, price sensitivity, enterprise policy, and acquisition source. Use matched cohorts,
169
+ staged availability, channel-specific links, or other causal evidence before attributing all
170
+ outcome differences to the channel.
171
+ 20. Judge the full funnel: eligible exposure, listing or landing visit, download, successful install,
172
+ first owned value, purchase, refund, retained use, update health, support, and contribution.
173
+ Downloads and gross store revenue are not the headline result.
174
+ 21. Promote only a reversible channel policy that improves retained contribution while preserving
175
+ necessary capability, accurate store and website claims, signing and update safety, entitlement
176
+ recovery, customer support, and current platform compliance.
177
+
178
+ <!-- mustflow-section: postconditions -->
179
+ ## Postconditions
180
+
181
+ - Discovery, distribution, commerce, entitlement, update, and support ownership are explicit per
182
+ channel.
183
+ - Store and direct builds share one product core with bounded, observable channel adapters.
184
+ - Platform capability, sandbox, signing, notarization, policy, commerce, and review constraints are
185
+ current or explicitly unverified.
186
+ - Purchases can be reconstructed, restored, refunded, revoked, supported, and migrated according to
187
+ a declared channel policy.
188
+ - Headline channel performance uses retained contribution rather than nominal fees, downloads,
189
+ listing presence, gross revenue, or update convenience.
190
+
191
+ <!-- mustflow-section: verification -->
192
+ ## Verification
193
+
194
+ Use configured oneshot command intents when available: `changes_status`, `changes_diff_summary`,
195
+ `lint`, `build`, `test_related`, `test`, `docs_validate_fast`, `test_release`, and
196
+ `mustflow_check`. Do not infer live store, enrollment, signing, notarization, payment, licensing,
197
+ submission, publication, analytics, installer, updater, deployment, or production commands.
198
+
199
+ <!-- mustflow-section: failure-handling -->
200
+ ## Failure Handling
201
+
202
+ - If current store policy or regional applicability cannot be verified, mark the channel rule
203
+ unverified and do not encode it as product behavior.
204
+ - If a store channel removes a core capability, compare a disclosed limited edition or reject the
205
+ channel; do not hide the loss behind install trust.
206
+ - If entitlement provenance or restore behavior is missing, do not launch a second paid channel that
207
+ can orphan or double-charge customers.
208
+ - If channel economics omit review delay, support, refunds, signing, update, or acquisition, report a
209
+ nominal fee comparison rather than a profitability decision.
210
+ - If store and direct builds require diverging product cores, stop and define the missing adapter or
211
+ intentionally separate product contract before expanding both.
212
+
213
+ <!-- mustflow-section: output-format -->
214
+ ## Output Format
215
+
216
+ - Product, buyer, platform, price, capability, privilege, enterprise, offline, and update needs
217
+ - Direct, store, and hybrid discovery, delivery, checkout, entitlement, update, and support matrix
218
+ - Current policy source and date, sandbox, signing, notarization, review, and channel limitation
219
+ - Gross price, fees, tax, refund, fraud, signing, hosting, update, support, acquisition, retained
220
+ contribution, and break-even lift
221
+ - Product core, channel adapters, feature parity, receipt, license, restore, portability, migration,
222
+ duplicate purchase, and version-skew policy
223
+ - Experiment evidence, files changed, command intents run and skipped checks
224
+ - Remaining desktop-commercial-distribution risk

+ scope, expiry, and contradiction before untrusted content can influence future tasks.
130
+ 23. Make detectors attenuation-only. A prompt-injection or trust classifier may block, narrow,
131
+ redact, require stronger approval, or route to review; it must never add tools, widen scope,
132
+ reduce validation, or promote tainted data to trusted authority.
133
+ 24. Test instruction injection and data injection separately. Cover hostile prose, disguised trusted
134
+ metadata, forged origins, malicious resource IDs, tool-call-shaped text, nested content,
135
+ encoded content, retrieved memory poisoning, and cross-tool exfiltration. Measure both attack
136
+ resistance and useful-task completion because a system that blocks everything is not a valid
137
+ defense.
138
+ 25. Run the narrowest configured verification that covers the changed surfaces.

+ # Freemium Ad Monetization Review
28
+
29
+ <!-- mustflow-section: purpose -->
30
+ ## Purpose
31
+
32
+ Design free access, product limits, and advertising as separate levers. Let eligible users receive
33
+ enough owned value to judge the product, then monetize repeat use or scale without interrupting active
34
+ work, withholding a completed core result, or mistaking ad impressions and paywall conversion for
35
+ long-horizon contribution.
36
+
37
+ <!-- mustflow-section: use-when -->
38
+ ## Use When
39
+
40
+ - A product compares generous ad-supported free use with ad-free limited use, a hard paywall, a
41
+ metered free plan, or a mixed free tier.
42
+ - Free access changes feature, usage, speed, batch, quality, export, storage, automation,
43
+ collaboration, history, API, or support limits.
44
+ - Interstitial, app-open, pre-content, mid-task, processing-wait, pre-result, post-result, or rewarded
45
+ ad placement, eligibility, frequency, suppression, or failure behavior changes.
46
+ - A report compares free-to-paid conversion, ad revenue, user acquisition, retained value, server
47
+ cost, ad SDK cost, or contribution per eligible user.
48
+
49
+ <!-- mustflow-section: do-not-use-when -->
50
+ ## Do Not Use When
51
+
52
+ - The main risk is game death, lives, energy, revive, progression fairness, or finite-content pacing;
53
+ use `game-economy-monetization-review`.
54
+ - The task only chooses product price, billing cadence, trial card collection, or subscription versus
55
+ usage pricing; use `pricing-model-integrity-review`.
56
+ - The task only changes signup, sample-to-own transfer, or first-value onboarding without a free-plan
57
+ or advertising decision; use `product-onboarding-activation-review`.
58
+ - The main risk is ad SDK integration, provider fill, callback integrity, consent collection,
59
+ tracking, attribution, child-directed treatment, or platform policy. Use the matching advertising,
60
+ privacy, security, or provider owner.
61
+ - The task is result watermarking, embedded service attribution, affiliate or influencer commission,
62
+ or promotion between owned products rather than paid or rewarded advertising inventory; use
63
+ `growth-distribution-integrity-review`.
64
+
65
+ <!-- mustflow-section: required-inputs -->
66
+ ## Required Inputs
67
+
68
+ - Value ledger: eligible user, core job, first owned result, completion, export or possession,
69
+ time-to-value, repeat cadence, retained use, and paid value.
70
+ - Free-tier ledger: features, usage, scale, speed, quality, export, storage, history, automation,
71
+ collaboration, API, support, reset, abuse controls, and variable cost.
72
+ - Ad ledger: format, placement, natural transition, explicit choice, reward, eligibility, first-value
73
+ suppression, frequency, session and time caps, load state, failure path, latency, revenue, fees,
74
+ privacy, consent, age, accessibility, and platform constraints.
75
+ - Paid ledger: price, entitlement, ad removal, lifted limits, conversion, churn, refunds, disputes,
76
+ support, variable cost, and retained contribution.
77
+ - Experiment ledger: pre-gate assignment, holdout, exposure, free-plan and ad versions, traffic,
78
+ horizon, interference, guardrails, and promotion rule.
79
+
80
+ <!-- mustflow-section: preconditions -->
81
+ ## Preconditions
82
+
83
+ - Separate how much free value exists, whether ads exist, which ad format is used, where it appears,
84
+ and how often it appears. These are not one binary decision.
85
+ - Define an observable user-owned value event before setting the first restriction or forced ad.
86
+ - Assign before the first free limit, paywall, or ad opportunity and retain abandoners in the
87
+ intent-to-treat denominator.
88
+ - Treat hard-paywall benchmarks, ad revenue averages, first-result counts, task intervals, minute
89
+ caps, and another product's limit as hypotheses, not defaults.
90
+ - Refresh current ad-platform, privacy, consent, age, accessibility, and jurisdiction constraints;
91
+ this skill does not authorize live ads, tracking, prices, experiments, or messages.
92
+
93
+ <!-- mustflow-section: allowed-edits -->
94
+ ## Allowed Edits
95
+
96
+ - Add or refine free-value boundaries, repeat or scale limits, ad placement and suppression,
97
+ voluntary rewards, failure-safe continuation, frequency policy, premium treatment, contribution
98
+ metrics, experiment events, fixtures, tests, docs, route metadata, and synchronized templates.
99
+ - Remove first-value interception, mid-edit interruption, pre-result hostage ads, fake rewarded-ad
100
+ choice, ad-load blocking, or limits that prevent a user from evaluating the core job.
101
+ - Do not conceal an ad behind a product action, delay a ready result to finish an ad, or claim that a
102
+ paid plan is ad-free when ads or equivalent sponsored interruptions remain.
103
+
104
+ <!-- mustflow-section: procedure -->
105
+ ## Procedure
106
+
107
+ 1. Split five decisions: free value, repeat or scale limit, ad format, ad placement, and frequency.
108
+ Do not compare bundles without naming which mechanism changed.
109
+ 2. Define the full-funnel outcome per eligible assigned user. Include first owned value, retained
110
+ use, paid conversion, subscription and purchase net revenue, ad net revenue, refunds, support,
111
+ variable service cost, reward cost, ad SDK cost, latency, and long-horizon contribution.
112
+ 3. Give enough free access to complete and possess a representative core result where product cost,
113
+ safety, and abuse permit. Restrict later repetition, scale, speed, batch, premium quality,
114
+ advanced export, storage, automation, collaboration, or API according to product value and cost.
115
+ 4. Do not universalize one free result. Derive the evaluation allowance from time-to-value, result
116
+ variance, trust needed, marginal cost, abuse, and whether one result is representative.
117
+ 5. Price the ad-supported audience honestly. Compare cumulative ad net revenue with lost paid
118
+ conversion, delayed payment, variable service and support cost, performance harm, retention, and
119
+ acquisition value. Ad gross revenue is not free-user profit.
120
+ 6. Match the free model to product physics. High-frequency, low-marginal-cost content can support
121
+ more ad-funded use; episodic or variable-cost production may need tighter repeat or scale limits.
122
+ Treat this as a candidate model, not a product-category law.
123
+ 7. Place forced interstitials only at a genuine natural transition after the current value has been
124
+ delivered, such as leaving a completed result or moving to a new unit. Do not interrupt input,
125
+ editing, active problem solving, checkout, safety actions, or accessibility flows.
126
+ 8. Never hold the completed core result behind a forced ad. Let the user inspect and retain what the
127
+ product promised before monetizing the transition to another task or optional benefit.
128
+ 9. Treat pre-content ads as context-dependent. They can fit expected long-form consumption after the
129
+ user understands the service, but not an unfamiliar product's first attempt or first owned value.
130
+ 10. Treat processing time as an ad opportunity only when input is complete, the ad does not delay
131
+ the result, declining or ad failure does not delay it, and the user will not wait twice. Do not
132
+ add artificial processing time.
133
+ 11. Keep rewarded ads genuinely optional. Name the incremental benefit before choice, preserve the
134
+ ordinary path, and do not call a required ad rewarded merely because it unlocks the core result.
135
+ 12. Make ad unavailability failure-safe. If a forced ad is not ready or cannot display, continue the
136
+ product transition; if a voluntary reward cannot be earned, explain that state without consuming
137
+ the attempt or withholding already earned value.
138
+ 13. Derive frequency from cumulative harm and value cadence. Use first-value suppression, minimum
139
+ spacing, session caps, consecutive-ad prevention, and context cancellation where supported, but
140
+ do not copy universal task counts or minute intervals.
141
+ 14. Keep premium treatment explicit. Define whether payment removes forced ads, rewarded-ad choices,
142
+ both, or neither; if a subscriber receives a no-ad reward, preserve the declared eligibility and
143
+ economic cap rather than creating unlimited value accidentally.
144
+ 15. Measure ad displacement by declared pre-experiment payer state and purchase propensity without
145
+ applying hidden rules to payers. Track first-purchase delay, plan conversion, downgrade, IAP,
146
+ reward use, and retained contribution.
147
+ 16. Account for privacy, age, consent, accessibility, data transfer, SDK startup, crashes, binary
148
+ size, battery, network use, and page or app performance as product costs and release guardrails.
149
+ 17. Keep placement, plan, frequency, and reward versions reconstructable across exposure and payment.
150
+ Sequence tests when traffic cannot identify several mechanisms at once.
151
+ 18. Promote only a reversible policy that improves eligible-user contribution without lowering
152
+ first owned value, holding results hostage, interrupting active work, or violating current ad,
153
+ privacy, age, accessibility, and platform authority.
154
+
155
+ <!-- mustflow-section: postconditions -->
156
+ ## Postconditions
157
+
158
+ - Free value, limits, ad presence, format, placement, and frequency remain separate decisions.
159
+ - A representative owned result precedes the first forced monetization boundary where allowed.
160
+ - Forced ads use natural transitions and do not block input, active work, or result inspection.
161
+ - Rewarded ads are optional and ad unavailability cannot consume earned product value.
162
+ - The headline result uses eligible users and net contribution with conversion, retention, cost,
163
+ performance, privacy, and ad-cannibalization guardrails.
164
+
165
+ <!-- mustflow-section: verification -->
166
+ ## Verification
167
+
168
+ Use configured oneshot command intents when available: `changes_status`, `changes_diff_summary`,
169
+ `lint`, `build`, `test_related`, `test`, `docs_validate_fast`, `test_release`, and `mustflow_check`.
170
+ Do not infer live ad-network, analytics, consent, billing, experiment, deployment, or production
171
+ commands.
172
+
173
+ <!-- mustflow-section: failure-handling -->
174
+ ## Failure Handling
175
+
176
+ - If the first owned value event is undefined, do not introduce a forced ad or harsher free limit.
177
+ - If ad and limit variants change together, report the result as a bundle effect and do not claim the
178
+ winning mechanism is known.
179
+ - If only exposed ad viewers are analyzed, report observational evidence rather than eligible-user
180
+ incrementality.
181
+ - If an ad is unavailable and the product path blocks, restore failure-safe continuation before
182
+ tuning fill or revenue.
183
+ - If net ad revenue rises while first value, retained use, paid contribution, performance, privacy,
184
+ accessibility, or support guardrails worsen, reject or narrow the policy.
185
+
186
+ <!-- mustflow-section: output-format -->
187
+ ## Output Format
188
+
189
+ - Eligible cohort, first owned value, free allowance, limits, and variable cost
190
+ - Ad-supported versus restricted contribution and cannibalization result
191
+ - Ad format, placement, natural transition, first-value suppression, and failure path
192
+ - Reward, opt-in, frequency, spacing, cap, premium treatment, and accessibility policy
193
+ - Paid conversion, ad net revenue, retained value, cost, privacy, and performance evidence
194
+ - Files changed
195
+ - Command intents run and skipped checks
196
+ - Remaining freemium-ad monetization risk
