Document ModpackChecker Phase 11: Licensing & Support Infrastructure
GEMINI CONSULTATION ROUND 3 COMPLETE
Added Phase 11 (6-8 hours) to flagship completion plan:
- License validation system (BuiltByBit Order ID as key)
- Discord verification bot (/verify-mvc command)
- Gated support channels (#mvc-general + #mvc-support)
- Descriptive UI error messages (highest ROI)
- GitBook knowledge base migration
- Business hours & boundaries (protect Michael's time)
- Community Helper program (6-12 month strategy)
Gemini's Core Philosophy:
"The real anti-piracy measure is gating updates and Discord support"
Key Decisions:
- NO complex DRM/IonCube (breaks panels)
- YES BuiltByBit Order ID validation
- 72-hour phone-home via cron (NOT page load)
- 7-day grace period for validation failures
- SLA: 24-48 hours (underpromise, overdeliver)
- Support hours: Mon-Fri 9am-5pm CST
- Peer support in #mvc-general reduces ticket load
Database schema updated with:
- max_activations, current_activations
- hardware_ids (JSONB for multi-panel)
- status (active/suspended/refunded)
