Site defaults and settings

Select --site <module> exporting siteDefaults, or pass the same options to programmatic generation. SiteDefaults from @aotter/mantle/site contains title, brand, description, origin, locales, optional icons and media purposes.

Generation emits the generated site module, deployment DDL for site_config, media_assets, pending_media_uploads, and site-seed.sql. Apply initial schema only to an empty database. Apply seed SQL explicitly: only absent brand/title/description are seeded without overwriting edits. Origin, locales, icons and media purposes come from generated defaults. Runtime construction neither seeds nor migrates.

Import the generated site, then use site(db, verifiedCaller).read() and .updateSettings({ brand, title, description }). Media is site(db, caller).media(storage). Native SQLite/PostgreSQL are supported. Only selected modules enter the application bundle.

Admin site/media routes are optional capabilities; their additional admin-cookie gate and origin checks remain required. The app owns object storage, signing and upload CORS. See media wiring.
