Day 4 update: VrothSec is fully live.

What shipped today:

— Renamed from CloudSecurityBot to VrothSec. A positioning specialist in the comments pushed me to tighten the frame before launch. Same product. Different trust level. Security infrastructure, not a GitHub bot.

— Free/paid model is working in code. Public repos get full security scanning automatically. Private repos get a subscription prompt with a payment link. No manual intervention. The bot handles it.

— Landing page live with privacy policy, terms, and refund policy. Paddle product created at $15/month with a 7-day free trial.

— Subscribers stored in a private GitHub repo as a JSON file. No database, no server, no infrastructure cost. When someone pays, their installation ID gets written to the file automatically. When they open a PR, the bot checks the file.

Here's what the bot posts on a private repo PR from a non-subscriber:

"🔒 VrothSec — Subscription Required. VrothSec is free for public repositories. Private repository scanning requires a subscription. Get VrothSec Pro — $15/month"

And here's what it posts on a public repo with real issues:

"🔴 Critical — config.py, Line 3: Hardcoded OpenAI API key. Fix: Move to environment variables."

Both flows tested and working.

What's left:

• Dev.to launch post (going live today)
• Paddle webhook → auto-activate on payment
• GitHub Marketplace submission

10 founding member spots at $15/month, locked in forever.
