Blocks: #28 (and through it the control track)

Tracking issue for a public release: a small page at https://illogical.widgets.wtf that says what illogical is, shows screenshots, and tells people how to install it.

Decisions (2026-10-01)

License: MIT OR Apache-2.0.
Home: this Forgejo repo (git.inevitable.fyi), made public. Releases, issues and CI live here.
Install: curl | sh, a Homebrew tap, build from source. Targets: linux x86_64 + arm64 (static musl), macOS arm64.
CI: forgejo-runner on geek (Linux) and jake-mini (macOS).
Pitch: the core plus Tailscale; VMs/sandboxes (wispd) and browser blocks on ports (wildcard DNS) are optional advanced setup.
Screenshots: a scripted Playwright spec, never real data.
Page: Cloudflare Pages at the illogical.widgets.wtf apex.
The real reboot check (#26) is tracked separately and does not gate launch.

Order

#19 License and make the repo public
#20 CI runners on geek and jake-mini
#21 Release builds (needs #20)
#22 Install script, Homebrew tap, from source (needs #21)
#23 Quickstart for anyone (can start now)
#24 Scripted screenshots (can start now)
#25 Marketing page (needs #22, #23, #24)

#23 and #24 don't depend on anything and can run alongside #19–#21.

Done when

The page is live, the one-liner on it installs a working illogical on a fresh Linux box and a Mac, and the repo is public with a license.

All of #19–#25 are done; the page is live at https://illogical.widgets.wtf, v0.1.0 is released, the one-liner was tested on a fresh VM, brew on the Mac. #26 (real reboot) remains open, as decided.
