What it does
Take a draft storefront live — the whole configuration is re-checked and the custom web address (if set) is claimed.
Publish a DRAFT Storefront: THE INVALID_CONFIG GATE re-validates the WHOLE config record-aware (selling LF ACTIVE · theme ∈ the roster · collections ACTIVE · division ACTIVE + channel-kind · category ACTIVE — VALIDATION/INVALID naming the miss) AND the custom domain (when set) CLAIMS its GLOBAL uniqueness marker in the SAME transaction — CONFLICT/IDENTITY_TAKEN if another published site holds the name (cross-tenant blind: the refusal names nothing foreign). v1 provisions NO serving infrastructure (the map — this record is the control plane). Requires the unrestricted capability + the record's CURRENT revision.
Careful
Refused if any referenced piece is missing or inactive, or if another live storefront already holds that web address.

Returns
Storefront Storefront! — A Storefront — the ecom DTC PUBLISH-CONFIG document: which selling facility the site sells from, which canned theme renders it, which collections it merchandises, which browse tree and channel division frame it, and (optionally) the custom domain it claims. The lifecycle: born draft (claiming nothing) → publish (THE INVALID_CONFIG GATE re-validates every ref record-aware + the GLOBAL domain marker claims in the SAME transaction — CONFLICT/IDENTITY_TAKEN if another published site holds the name) → unpublish (the marker releases) → republish (the SAME gate + re-claim). published NEVER dooms — unpublish first (the FSM forbids the edge). THE SERVING ESTATE IS DELIBERATELY ABSENT v1 (the map): publish flips state, claims the domain, validates config — it provisions NOTHING; this record is the control plane the DTC workstream will consume. SEO copy rides the Decoration attachment, never fields here.
