# 0.0.1 — Initial public CLI distribution

- Public Windows PowerShell and Linux/macOS shell installers with optional dependency setup.
- Version-pinned packages and installer URLs, a latest alias, SHA-256 checksums, and a release catalog.
- The packaged li CLI provides the existing AIS-focused migration commands and license activation/refresh/deactivation.
- License certificates and server-side application/migration-unit metering protect licensed operations. Reinstallation or generating a new activation code does not reset usage or license expiry.

## Requirements and limitations

- Node.js 20 or later and npm are required. Full migration also requires Git, PowerShell 7, Azure CLI/Bicep, MSI/CAB tools where applicable, and a configured AI provider.
- Automatic dependency setup targets Windows with WinGet, macOS with Homebrew, Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, and Debian 12/13. Other Linux distributions require manual prerequisites and --skip-dependencies.
- AI provider sign-in, model downloads, and license activation are separate user steps.
- This release preserves the AIS compatibility implementation; it does not promise all planned integration-platform routes.
- Installer syntax and mocked safety checks are automated. Clean-machine dependency installation across all OS versions is not yet certified; report installer failures before using this in managed fleet rollouts.
