Build SilverMetal Enhanced - Windows ISO / build (pull_request) Successful in 4m46s
perf(welcome): cut first-boot cold-start + add loading affordance
The Welcome wizard showed nothing until WebView2 cold-started and Blazor
booted, so the whole startup cost presented as a blank window long enough
that operators thought first boot had failed.

- Native MAUI splash overlay (renders in the first frame, no WebView2/JIT
  dependency) + a visually identical in-page splash inside #app, so the
  native -> webview -> Blazor handoff reads as one continuous loading
  screen. Fades out on first successful WV2 NavigationCompleted.
- PublishReadyToRun=true (publish-only) to remove first-run JIT on the
  one-shot cold-disk path. R2R header verified present after publish.
- Fixed-version WebView2 runtime baked offline next to the exe (build.ps1
  stages it, app points WEBVIEW2_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_FOLDER at it). Removes
  the Evergreen registry probe and the LTSC "no WebView2 at all" risk flagged
  in welcome-app-spec.md; air-gap friendly. Absent => falls back to Evergreen.
- De-flash launch: drop the `cmd /c` wrapper and add -WindowStyle Hidden in
  autounattend FirstLogonCommands (kills the console flash + one process).

Verified: Release build clean, win-x64 self-contained publish succeeds with
R2R confirmed, 38/38 tests pass.

windows/installer

The custom packed-ISO build pipeline. See ../iso-builder.md for the design.

File Role
build.ps1 Pipeline orchestrator (7 stages). Run on Windows + Windows ADK.
inputs.manifest.json Pinned inputs — base ISO SHA-256, driver-pack/Stack/tool versions. The Microsoft ISO is an input, never committed.
autounattend/autounattend.xml OOBE automation — local account (no MSA), regional, BitLocker-ready disk layout, hands off to first-boot.
oem/SetupComplete.cmd First-boot entry point — runs the shared ../hardening/ modules, then schedules Verify.

Usage (M2+):

.\build.ps1 -SourceIso 'D:\Win11_IoT_Enterprise_LTSC_x64.iso'

Current status: M0 scaffold — stages 27 throw NotImplemented until M2/M3.
