One-command releases, real numbers, and a finished safety net

The infrastructure phase is done. Two days took SessionClick from ‘releasing is a click-odyssey through two consoles’ to one-command releases on both stores, a monthly report with real download numbers, and UI smoke tests on Android and iOS — with an AI agent doing the work and me holding the credentials. Every failure along the way became documentation.

Shipping was the easy part — making SessionClick robust for the long haul

SessionClick is live on both stores, and I have a feature list itching to be built.
