# maineaa-updates — update channel for the Maine AA Area 28 theme

This repository is the **self-hosted update channel** for the
[`aa/maineaa`](https://gitea.mulligan.casa/aa/maineaa) GeneratePress child theme
(Maine AA Area 28). It is consumed by the **`manifest-updater`** WordPress plugin
via the theme's `Update URI` header, which points at the manifest published here.

## How it works

- The shared build/publish script (`release.sh`) lives in
  **`ee-extensions/foh-updates/.ci/`** and runs from the theme repo's CI on a
  tagged (`v*`) release.
- On each tagged release it publishes here automatically:
  - **`maineaa.json`** — the update manifest the plugin reads.
  - **`maineaa/maineaa-<version>.zip`** — the versioned theme package.
- WordPress fetches the manifest and zip **anonymously**, so
  **this repository must remain public.** Do not make it private.

This repo starts nearly empty; the manifest and versioned zips appear
automatically on the first tagged release of `aa/maineaa`.
