Story 8.10 · Epic 8 (Launch readiness) — the GO-TO-MARKET ACT: take Motir public by building in public. The concrete execution of the launch thesis: Motir is feature-complete as an MCP-native PM tracker, so we expose Motir’s OWN moooon/motir project publicly and invite people to follow the development of the AI planner (Epic 7) and the hosted AI coding agent (Epic 9). This is mostly founder/manual/content work routed through Motir’s own queue; it CONSUMES the shipped public-project feature (6.12/6.13/6.16/6.17) and the 8.9 follow+changelog feature, and depends on the launch gates 8.3 (brand mark), 8.4 (legal — strangers can now sign up + submit), and 8.5 (motir.co prod go-live). It is the execution arm of the 8.6 GTM strategy (relates_to 8.6), not a duplicate of it.
blocked_by MOTIR-656 IS NOW A CROSS-EPIC EDGE, DELIBERATELY (2026-08-29)8.3 Marketing site + brand mark was re-filed out of Epic 8 and into Motir's public web presence, because the question it had grown into — where is every public surface addressed? — outgrew a story about a landing page and a logo. The blocked_by edge from this story to it is real and stays, so it is now a story-level edge whose two ends sit under different epics, which plan-rules/phase-skeleton.md normally forbids.
No lift is legal, and this is the case that pack's no-legal-lift limb names. Lifting it would read "Epic 8 is blocked_by the public-web-presence epic" — which would hold 8.5 Production hardening, 8.1, 8.4 and every other child of Epic 8 out of the ready set on work only this story consumes. The limb's own words: "Where only one child of a container needs the work, the lifted edge blocks every sibling on something none of them consumes." So the edge stays at the leaf and the reason is recorded here, on the card that carries it.
What this means in practice: readiness still computes correctly — 656 shows in this story's openBlockers exactly as it did inside Epic 8 — but a reader auditing Epic 8's story graph will find one edge pointing outside it. That is intentional, not an unswept re-file.
